With Wednesdays being a bit of a slow day I sometimes take in the EDS or Academy games. Witnessed a strange game today at Stoneham. The second years were playing in the National League Cup. First half they look totally disjointed, struggled to get the ball forward, created very little and found themselves 3-0 down. I was going to leave and watch the second half of the EDS match. However, I thought I would give them 10 minutes of the second half to see if they improve.
Don't know who the sub was for Eastleigh, but he completely transformed the game. Linked play up from front back, got forward, scored twice and set the tempo for Eastleigh to lay siege to the oppositions goal. They could hardly get out of their half. Ended up 3-3 and Eastleigh won the penalty shoot out. Talk about an impact sub!!!

That is Jo Adams. No secret just how good he is to those that have watched him last few years. He is still only 17 and a regular in the Sholing Southern League team for over a year now.

Whoever he was, he was a very good player. I wonder why he was on the bench? For what it’s worth, an earwigged conversation suggests one of the academy boys is off to join a championship side. I wonder if it’s the lad you mentioned.
