Yep - been a mutually beneficial partnership

He's kicked on massively in the last twelve months too.

I'm already looking forward to seeing how Dowell, Martin, sorenson, idah and omobamidele develop.

Plus there's been snatches from Plachetta, Soto, Sinani, sitti and the young keepers which show promise too.

Not all of them will kick on, but some of them will (and that's a lovely feeling to have around the club after patches in the noughties where our young players (even those with promise) never seemed to make the step up.

Sounds like we're already scouting the next batch too!
