Title: England U17's
Post by: Filo on May 21, 2014, 07:23:51 pm
Just watching the U17's European championships final Holland v England and noticed that when the ref awards a free kick he sprays what likes like shaving foam where the kick should be taken from, then paces the 10 yards out and sprays another line were the wall can go, I've never seen this before, but what a great idea

I think it's a great idea and helps the ref no end

I was at the semi final on Sunday vs Portugal,was in Malta on holiday,the foam lasts a couple of minutes or so,less of course if it gets trampled on in open play. The National Stadium has another ground next door to it called The Millennium Stadium,they are best to grounds on the island,but only one single lane road to them,with no signage to them. It was only 5 euros to get in on Sunday and we could have watched the other semi final afterwards

These lads know how to take a penalty . Congrats on the lads winning euros , maybe the future is not so bad for the national side

That Isaiah Brown looks a strong quick lad, and the lad at LB with the tied back dreadlocks caught the eye

But how many will get their chance at the top level?  1?  2 at a push?  If that?

Look at the last lot to win it. A fair few are making a name for themselves.

Planning League 3 is why we won it.

That Samuel Johnstone for the previous U17 team doesn't sound good enough for Man Utd for me I think he should get himself to a lovely yorkshire club in League 1  ;)
