    Still no sign of the lesser spotted Crole.

    Well, exactly. Our lot were probably sulking last week because the coach stopped them from playing Sonic the Hedgehog or from riding their BMXs around the car park or something. What can you do with them?

    No sign of Crole, no. Xaviar Benjamin wasn't in the Dunfermline squad either, nor Ryan Kavanagh in the Truro squad (although that poor guy not being injured would be news).

    I like Truro. The guy who reports on their games calls them stanzas instead of halves which is very endearing and something I'm thinking of doing myself. They won 2-1 at highly-placed St Albans yesterday to pull themselves away from the relegation zone. Over 2,000 there but the few Truro fans who made the 540 mile round trip (in a regionalised league) made themselves heard.

    Two videos in this set of four. If this doesn't humble you as a player then you must have a heart of stone.

    Another who seems conspicuous by his absence (if you can be conspicuous playing for the U21s) is Caleb Hughes. Doesn't seem to be on loan so a long term injury?

    He's another one with a good future behind him here. Just seems to have disappeared. I saw him score a great free kick for the under-21s a while back but even by then his progress seemed to be stalling. Hard to be critical of the player or the club unless you know all the details but it's bewildering what happens to some of them.

    Ntazana Mayembe was about 15 when Bellamy was playing him for the u-18s, looked a good prospect. Signed a contract here in 2020 and made the bench for at least one first team game. Got called up by Zambia for three games and made his debut in the last one, against Senegal (Diedhiou came on for them). He started missing a lot of games at youth level here and there were rumours about him causing some problems. We released him in 2022. He then played for Goytre and now, apparently, plays for Garw SBGC near Bridgend. Make sense of that.

    He went on loan to Connahs Quay Nomads but has not played for them yet, so I presume he has a long-term injury

    Odd one this. There's a Caleb Hughes lurking around up there but I'm not sure if he's our one or not.

    This site suggests he's a 19-year-old from Wrexham.

    https://www.transfermarkt.com/connah...s/verein/27028

    But this one says he's the City player

    I haven't seen a site saying they've got two Caleb Hughes so I'm not sure what's occurring.

    We’re in Andy Goram territory here.

    Usually when a player goes on loan they are banished from the team lists on the main site but our Caleb Hughes is still there. Perhaps he's moonlighting.
