Good to see they have been granted permission to play in the U18 league..and even better to see one of them scored on debut

Also was interested to read that Hunty rates Nam Taehee as one of the best young prospects he has ever seen

Has Nam got long hair and runs about a lot and f***s up all the free-kicks and corners?

It's always good seeing us invest in young players - but it seems a shame that Seol's not been around to help them settle. Then again, bar the first 8 or 9 games he played, he was awful.

I didn't think we owned these lads, they were just on an FA exchange programme?

We've not go any ownership rights to them until they sign pro contracts.

Seol was on a similar thing in Belgium (Lierge I think) but not until he was a bit older.

Technically the Korean kids are great and are bigger and stronger than you'd think.

I was hoping to take some Korean friends to go and support the under-18s, but it says on the official site that there is no public entry to Academy games. Is that true? Is there some sort of unofficial means of entry?

What beats me is...
Why don't we invest more in English young players.

I take great exception to your post, Ideal. My partner, who is pregnant with my child, is a French-speaking African (who, incidentally, has seen probably more Reading games than you) and for you to classify her as a waster is about as insulting and racist as you can get. If you're going to carry on your ridiculous tirade against Fae, OK, but to say that he is rubbish (I don't know how you've managed to form that opinion) simply because he's a 'French African' is crazy. I spent some time in Oslo, and the Norwegians didn't strike me as being particularly racist. Maybe you're just the exception that proves the rule.

Good Post HR. And remember Cisse is 'French African' and he has quite possibly been our most assured Centre back this season!

I don't think Ideal is saying that French Africans are wasters, simply that we have signed some French African wasters. I think waster is a poor choice of word in this context. They may or may not be poor footballers but we have seen nothing to suggest that they don't want to do well. I would like to see Fae given more first team opportunites now but if someone else thinks he is a waste of space I wouldn't call that a racist view.
