What a pleasure to watch PNE U18s overwhelm Liverpool U18s in the FA Youth Cup last night. Could easily have been six and they only allowed a couple of chances to the visitors. Theo Mawene and Max Wilson outstanding. Well done, lads and coach John Welsh.

It was great to see the force of nature that is Eric Jones looking so sprightly last night. Time spent with 'Tom Finney's understudy' is always such fun and he brings joy to so many with his stories of professional football in the 1950s.
