In our latest Academy column, U18s boss Barry Lewtas assesses an encouraging start to the new season and reveals a very special recent guest to the Kirkby training pitches.
We have made a promising start to the season and we are pleased with the boys. They know there is a lot of hard work ahead but they are a good group of lads who want to improve on a daily basis and we will continue to do our utmost to help them on their pathway.
The Academy is a very buoyant place and there was a real excitement in the air recently when Sir Kenny Dalglish came down with Alex Inglethorpe for a few training sessions.
