    Have a good evening, Henry.

    Paul, Steve Avory and a couple of Academy lads came to us last season and it was very interesting to hear what they had to say about all aspects of the Academy.

    A legend from the 80s is in town next week and we are hoping he'll pop along for half an hour and say hi.

    Nathan Jones - he's been gone too long.

    I'm going to ask him how often he hears that joke and how annoying is it on a scale of 1 to 10

    Really looking forward to this. A lot has gone on since the last meeting in May and it will be interesting to hear some forthright views from Paul Hart. I have heard him speak a couple of times. He comes over as a nice guy who has a vast knowledge of the game and those within it. Should be entertaining!!

    Got a few completed membership forms for you Razil. I'll give them to Geoff on Saturday.

    Zonal marking is great, Jones looks like he's still playing and came over very well. Hart does very good impressions of Clough and the ex-QPR owner Beratori (sp),

    CL and BA contribution to mimibuses very very very appreciated. Buses used non-stop ferrying kids about. Paul is going to contact us about a project we've offered to support. More on that later.

    SPIT is what they look for in young players.

    That's it.

    Both Paul and Hart made a big thing about the personalities of the young players and teaching them good habits, discipline and behaviour

    Hart mentioned how the buses are used to take young kids home to "challenged" areas. He said "you would have heard about the boy who was stabbed in Hackney" which personally I hadn't. Seems an academy player was attacked. They have now moved him, with his parents permission, out of the area. He's living with the family of another academy player and is nearly ready to start training again.

    Hart nearly signed for Charlton in 85. He came down to the Valley and spoke to Lennie. He was going to sign but Sheff Weds came in for him. He played for Weds v us the next season and we won "you wouldn't have won that if I'd be playing for you" was his comment.

    Thanks for the feedback, Henry.

    If Paul Hart had actually signed as a player, he would have been one of our Sellout nomads that Lennie guided to promotion that season.

    Shocking news about the stabbing to our young player - wish him a speedy recovery.

    When I watched Gomez as an 18 year old at the usual Welling pre season friendly at right back he looked a great prospect then so me and Paul Hart were bang on the money 😉

    I know this post was from 2012 but who was the player?

    Did he ever make it to pro level?
