    It's good.

    However are we saying now that Liverpool under 18's is better that Bradford City first team?

    https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/57252595

    Conor Bradley plays for Liverpool Under 18's at right back and isn't near the 1st first team but hes be called straight up to the Ireland senior squad.

    I'm hoping this season Bradford City use the loan market well because some talent out there that are clearly better than what we have even at under 18 level.

    FWIW, FCD is not an acronym. An acronym is a 'word' formed from abbreviated letters, such as FIFA, UEFA, NATO, etc. Things like EFL, BBC, RAC, and FCD are simply abbreviations because each letter is pronounced individually. :)

    Also, what's the problem? I don't remember anyone complaining about abbreviations for other players such as ROD, AOC, POC or BRE.

    Jamie Carragher’s son for example. Plays for Wigan U18s. Contract is up, and already there’s Prem teams tussling over him. We’ve really not got much hope competing with the big clubs. Young lads heads get turned and I don’t blame them. We’ve just got to continue producing our own. On that note, I know we’re waiting for a new first team manager, but what’s happened to our youth team set up? Are T&S returning? It’s gone quiet on that front.

    sweet jesus mary and joseph and the wee donkey. Purpose of language is to convey a message. If we all understand it, a bit of shorthand does no harm

    It's actually pretty easy to read FCD as an acronym ;)
