But in all honesty, Eagle, Spinner, Maher and a couple of others apart we have not had that many quality youngsters at the club (Under 21 )

Gymer, Engwell, Perkins , Fitzpatrick ............

Austin, Edinburgh...

Kightly ?

 

[Firestorm]

Hmmm Austin was signed from Non league (St Albans) and went straight into the 1st team, iirc he was a little older as well.

Generally the youngsters we have signed from other clubs who would not give them a pro deal ( Hanlon, Clarke, Clark Ciagiodoobree etc) or the youngsters we have brought through ourselves (Gymer Engwell Perkins etc etc) have greatly outweighed those who have broken into the first team and then stayed there.

I concur with Edinburgh , honest he was in my mind with the etc bit !!

As we released him, I suppose he goes into the not too good pile, Along with others of around that era, Tom MacDonald, McSweeney, Kerrigan

 

[Maldon Blues]

Remember him, played one game for us in the Zeith Data Systems Cup in 1991....has signed for Chelmsford!

 

[cockles is back]

a fantastic signing for them, I for one would love to have him back at the club

 

[Desert Shrimper]

Agreed. He could still do a job for us.

Surely it can't be same one, Our ex arsenal Lad will be 39 in November

The Arsenal Scout who "found" Rabregas is also a Francisco Cagigao who is apparently an ex Arsenal player so that may be the same bloke

Yep, in yesterdays Mail

The Centro Galego is steeped in football. Javier is on to the story of how one local lad, Francisco Cagigao, was responsible for Cesc Fabregas coming to Arsenal.




“Francisco played briefly for Southend as well as Arsenal and Barcelona reserves, but eventually became Arsenal’s scout for Spain and Portugal. He tipped off Arsene Wenger that Barcelona were stalling about giving Fabregas a contract, so that’s how Arsenal got him first.

So I dn't get it. Has the Fran Cagigao that we know signed for Chelmsford? If so, that's pretty amazing!

 

[Firestorm]

Well , Only If Chelmsford have signed Arsenals 39 year old Spanish representative !

Damn, I had 5pm-7pm on the sweepstake of when you'd make that joke.

 

[mfurok]

Press reports suggest that Rafa wants Francisco (now reported as Francis) to leave Arsenal and join him at Real.

No mention of Espanol being involved.
