    Where are they now?

    Vincent Rabiega - VR apparently plays for BFC Preussen, who play in the local 'Berlin Liga' in Germany. It's the sixth tier of German football, but Berlin Liga sounds significantly smaller than, say, National League North/South.

    Jacob Hanson - JH currently plays at Macclesfield Town FC in the North West Counties Football League, on loan from FC United.

    Callum Gunner - CG is at Chippenham Town in the National League South. They're 10th.

    Omari Patrick - OP is at Burton Albion, but has played 12 times this season.

    Tyrell Robinson - he's locked up.

    Lachlan Barr - LB is apparently at Adelaide City, who play in the National Premier League South, which is described as 'semi pro'.

    Joel Grodowski - JG is at SC Verl, in the third tier of the German football league. Verl are currently 17th out of 20.

    Jordan Gibson - JG is at Carlisle United where he's scored 5 goals. He seems to be doing pretty well, although Carlisle are struggling.

    Lukas Raeder - LR is at Lokomotiv Plovdiv, in the top tier of Bulgarian football.

    Kai Brunker - KB is at FC Magdeburg in the third tier of German football. The free-scoring forward has rattled in 3 goals this season in 14 appearances.

    Tom Clare - TC appears to be at Macclesfield Town FC alongside Jacob Hanson in the North West Counties Football League.

    Thomas Isherwood - TI is currently at Darmstadt 98 in the second tier of German football. He seems to be a regular there, and Transfermarkt rates him at a value of £900k (?)

    Joe Riley - Another player at Carlisle United, along with Jordan Gibson.

    Luca Colville - LC is now at Scarborough Athletic in the Northern Premier League Premier Division.

    A couple of surprises there.

    Thomas Isherwood was the tall (pretty useless) centre back wasn't he, but he's still only 23, and Darmstadt are top of the Bundesliga 2, so he could well be a Bundesliga player next season.

    I always thought Lukas Raeder deserved more of a chance, from what I saw of him in the only game he played for us I thought he was alright - I'd certainly take him in now. He was a substitute for Lokomotiv Plovdiv in their Europa Conference League games this season - I'd say that's a considerable step up from us, certainly at present.

    Even Bruenker somehow, and Omari, are playing at a higher level than ourselves at present.

    Weird old game isn't it.

    Looking at those Jon, reminds me of the same sort of progress profile which fitted most of Archie Christie's Development squad.

    I accept some are in League football but LC clearly didn't make it at Morton.
    Riley has been injured work weeks at Carlisle, bit like his time here.
    JG flatters to deceive, didn't do much at Stevenage or in Ireland but give you he is still youngish.

    The others, well....
