jake robinson in 1st team squad for middlesbrough?

[St.George]

right first of all hi everyone.

i know i have a low post count but that because i only registered the other day, i also am only typing what ive heard! my step-mum works with jake robinsons dad and has just been told he is in the first team for the middlesbrough game! i am simply typing what ive been told in a text message 10 minutes ago.

good for him though if it is true!

 

[tinx]

Great news if true but we'll have to wait and see if he gets picked.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

can't actually see him making the team but if he's as good as you all say it should be great experience for him to be in the squad.

 

[JJ McClure]

Well if McPhee is starting we need another striker on the bench. Who would you rather have young Jake or Dave Lee.

 

[jeremy beadles hand]

I reckon Piercy will probably be reserve striker but it would be good to give the lad a chance

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Jake, but then I'd rather have Steve Coppell on the bench than Dave "most pointless signing ever" Lee.

The official site seems to point to Piercy being the only change to the squad for wednesday with McPhee starting upfront with Leon and Piercy on the bench replacing henderson.

No mention of Jake.

well i hope he is, but i am only typing what ive been told!

Argus mentions Piercy has been added to the squad, but doesn't mention Jake so it doesn't look like he's in the squad for this one. But his time will come - hopefully quite soon

My brother-in-law's dog had hear that SG was keen to get him in the first team at some stage

 

[tainan]

He wants to get the dog in the first team, or Jake?

 

[Mustela Furo]

St.George's info is pretty accurate.

Jake has been under serious consideration for a place on the bench tomorrow night. Piercy is favourite, but...

 

[perseus]

Its only fair we put our reserves in. Middlesbrough will probably give their substitute Juninho a run out as it is only a Cup game, not the Premier League.

 

[Albionite83]

If this is a wind-up, we've got his hopes up for no good reason

 

[Italiaseagull]

I'm all for giving youngsters a chance but don't think he should be fastracked into the team for the sake of it. Let him develop into quality striker we know he'll be, without putting him under unnecessary pressure.

 

[Deano's Right Foot]

RLZ is nomally spot on, and it sounds a bit like less than 50/50 from what he's saying...

His chance will come.

 

[Stumpy Tim]

Next you'll be suggesting someone puts him on ebay.

Well done

It would be great for the youngster to have the last 20 mins or so.

A nice stadium to make your debut in.

Excellent I can,t wait like a lot of you I have heard all good things about Jake but have never seen him play.
