Let’s see how the young ones are doing.
The U23s carried on their league campaign yesterday afternoon with a 1-1 draw with Sheffield United at St Andrew’s.
The Blues took the lead just past the midway point of the second half, with a fine goal from a corner by Jack Concannon, only to be pegged back by a penalty with less than ten minutes to go.
There seemed to be two trains of thought coming out of the game. There were those who took the game for what it was, and took the opportunity to praise the team for their performances and goalscorer Concannon.
Looked quite decent in patches, did the young uns, and it's all about learning, but just like the old uns, chances about as common as rocking horse shit #bcfc

Our 23s play much better football then our first team… #BCFC

However, the rest of the conversation seemed to be surrounding who was, and for some people, who wasn’t playing. Whilst there were some fans who were starting to wonder when Josh McEachran might put pen to paper on a deal for the first team, there were some who pointed to the absence from the starting eleven of young goalkeeper Moha Ramos.
When they making a decision on McEachran? Or are we doing a typical Blues and waiting for a rival to sign him so he can score a hat trick against us later this season?

Announce McEachran

Just start Ramos literally no point in getting him if we don’t play him

Why did we sign Ramos? Can't even get a game for the reserves ????

Any reason Moha Ramos isn't getting any game time at the moment? He was, supposedly, very highly rated. I'm almost certain we'll have signed McEachran by this time next week. A wealth of central options, but we need a passer urgently.

It looks like there are a couple of people who have fallen into my school of thought when it comes to Ramos. That being if you aren’t going to play him, why do we even have him?
