    Akworth will be pleased. He always wanted us to sign his father.

    He is the son of Danny.  Central midfielder.  One could refer to him as combative and tenacious but can also play a bit.    Not the biggest but has more than enough heart in him!

    In honesty I'd be surprised to see him in the reckoning for the first team any time soon

    Swisdom nails it.
    He has little fear when he plays, always looking to do the best he can.
    Surely these are unprecedented times when it comes to Academy signings.
    It seems to be deliberate policy.

     I know height was always an issue on here, but posterior?? Come on

    I really like that we're signing so many of these kids up. Not all of them will make it in professional football, and even fewer at Charlton, but this guarantees them a couple of years to prove themselves, and gives the club some security should one break out and bigger clubs come calling.

    No, only the unofficial news that he’s signed for a club in Qatar.

    That leaves Myers as the only other u18 second year we don’t know about.

    Saves buying a player I suppose ….

    I think that is right.
    Footballers have to start somewhere, and what is the point of an academy system if it isn’t to produce first team players?
    The challenge is management and balance.

    That's a good level for a first loan, hope he does well.

    Able to stay home too. Looked good when he had a few minutes for the men's team earlier in the season so hope he does well. Nice to see someone come into the first team and then be sent out to get experience too

    Good move for Harvey. He has some Dobson like qualities and comes from a good football background.
    Good luck Harvey.

    I'm surprised. I've only seen glimpses of him but thought he looked a top prospect.

    I think unfortunately he's been leapfrogged by a couple of other players in similar positions to him, and it's meant he's at a stage where there's no room for him in the academy, but he hasn't made the jump to the main squad. I would imagine Aaron Henry is in the same boat

    Shame.  Good luck Harvey.  Hope you bounce back and prove us wrong.

    Scored in the FA Cup for Croydon Athletic, managed by his dad Danny. They won 3-0 so are in the next round. In the league they’re in the Isthmian South East, the 8th tier.
