Lawrence Vigouroux

Asked about the nature of the issue, Cooper confirmed: "It did happen and I thought it was brilliant banter, but in the context it was the wrong way to go about it.

I always love an Alan Partridge reference.

I heard this lad is going to hang up his boots and pursue his real dream of becoming a pop-rock icon.  Word on the street is that his band is going to be called "Lawrence and the Machine"

pennies from heaven, he will be quids in no doubt

Cheeky scamp.

Good bit of business from the Academy again.  Best of luck at Swindon Lawrence.

BBC Wiltshire also understands that Swindon have agreed a deal worth about £400,000 to sign Lawrence Vigouroux.

The Chilean goalkeeper made 36 appearances while on loan at Swindon from Liverpool in 2015-16.

Vigouroux, 22, was a regular in the Wiltshire club's starting side before suffering an injury in March.

We have to get it from wherever we can mate 

Is the academy's job to turn a profit on selling kids on, or to produce an occasional first team player? Serious question.

It's just that I remember those heady days when we produced Michael Owen, Steven Gerrard, Robbie Fowler, Jamie Carragher and the like and wonder why it doesn't seem to happen any more.

It's both mate.

Let's face it not many make it to the level of the players you mentioned, so all good in making a profit on those we ship out.

I suppose Raheem has been the best we have nurtured recently and probably too soon to judge on Ibe, Brannagan and Ojo.

Agreed mate and I think the job of nurturing local talent, or any talent, has been made more difficult now there isn't "reserve" football but instead having just "youth" football.

It's difficult enough to get them through but when they have little or no experience of playing against other pro footballers, the difference and how much they have to adapt to it plus how little time they get to do so is huge.

Moved on a long time ago. Now with Leighton Orient

Just been signed by Burnley.
