Great stuff. I know it's all about development of the player and the person, but winning never hurts!
Congrats to all involved. |  |

"Also as a Welshman does anyone know anything about the young Alfie Tuck?"
I've seen Alfie play three or four times this season for the U18s. He is a very effective Sam Field type midfielder within his age group. Combative and with an eye for a pass. To progress he will need to develop physically - as he is quite slight in stature currently.
The last game I saw him play was Crewe U18s away on the morning of the Burnley game and he was watched by a Welsh FA scout who was asking how he had being doing recently.
Hopefully he will continue to develop. |  | | |

In the Wales squad for the European U17s championships starting tomorrow and I think scored one of the goals that helped them qualify too

Sorry, but QPR U12s should only matter to the kids that play for it and their parents. It's nice that they have won and a lovely experience for all of them, but there is a miniscule chance that this will have any affect on the first team as none of them will make it as professionals at QPR certainly and probably in general. It also probably cost the club a few Bob that apparently we don't have.
The Academy might make for a feel good story now and then, but it's hardly paying it's way, is it?
Just how desperate the club is for a "good news" story.
Sorry! |  |

I think its more about sending congratulations to the youngsters.
Not sure anyone is excited about 11 year olds winning a cup, but they are young kids and it would be nice for them to be congratulated by the club & its supporters | | | |

Thanks Aston, i remember seeing that and hearing the link to QPR which peaked my interest, fingers crossed he continues to develop for both QPR and Wales. | | | |

And let's not forget that when the U12s win something it embarrasses all the senior players who have never won anything. It's very inconsiderate. |  |

Alfie Tuck has come on after an hour.
So far, tidy in possession and picks a good pass, sound positioning and communicating well with his teammates. He could have something about him, left footed too. |  |

The senior pro's will be very pleased for the boys........100%. They would probably have been in very similar situations themselves and would know and understand how joyous & important it is.
Well done to the boys and coaches. [Post edited 18 May 2023 8:28]
