New account. This is my own account and does not necessarily represent the views and decisions of the @SeftonSchoolsFA
Thanks.

@JohnEllison5 Quite a few people mate. People exploiting kids who want to play footy is one of the reasons I've stepped away from Sefton for the time being.

[DMSefton @SeftonDm]

Yet more leeches offering kids hope just to line their own pockets. Its a disgrace. The best way to make it in the game, apart from the obvious attitude, dedication, talent, is to play grass roots and representative football. Scouts will be in attendance. Believe me.

[DMSefton @SeftonDm]

Apart from a couple of quid subs to cover refs, kit washing and pitch fees, kids shouldn't have to pay to play. Ever.

[DMSefton @SeftonDm]

@rocketsrainhill @KnowsleySFA @wigansfa I managed the first game and the North West Cup game. Knowsley haven't half improved recently. Yeah hopefully it's the Merseyside final, let's wait and see.

[DMSefton @SeftonDm]

@rocketsrainhill @KnowsleySFA @wigansfa Yeah the lads played well v Wirral by all accounts.
In the past we've turned up to play Knowsley more or less expecting a win without being disrespectful there or taking anything for granted.
More recently tho they've been very close games. Good to see.

I wonder how many grassroots games will be cancelled today, whilst overpriced 3g facilities stand idle. Its ok calling the premier league but when facilities are charging up to £200 for a 90 min booking or £100 for an hour, that's the real issue #grassroots #cashovercommonsense

[DMSefton @SeftonDm]

@KnowsleySFA @rocketsrainhill @wigansfa Strongest Knowsley side I've seen for years. All credit to the Knowsley staff and their players for it, especially pursuing and merging with St Helens in the correct manner. It's made them able to continue, provide opportunities and be more competitive.

Good luck to the boys away in Leeds this morning #Sefton

[DMSefton @SeftonDm]

@ConorMcGinn @KnowsleySFA Yeah great news that they can carry on playing but their best chance at a National Cup has been taken away from them by @SchoolsFootball an that's not on.

[DMSefton @SeftonDm]

Well done this morning #Sefton U14 boys with a 3-2 win over @ChesterSFA
Thanks to Chester for hosting too.

[DMSefton @SeftonDm]

Class boys well in.

[DMSefton @SeftonDm]

This is so sad. Rip Sonny.

[Litherland REMYCA FC @RemycaUtd]

As a Football Club we are devastated to hear of the tragic loss of U 18 team member Sonny Chambers tonight.We send our condolences to Sonny’s Family and Friends at this sad and difficult time

[DMSefton @SeftonDm]

@JohnEllison5 Not completely mate.

[DMSefton @SeftonDm]

I won't lie like, I'm not missing the bullshit, leeches and red tape involved in schoolboy footy. I am missing the boys and them playing footy though. Friggin shame.

[DMSefton @SeftonDm]

He played against my Sefton teams for Liverpool. Class.

[paul joyce @_pauljoyce]

Tottenham, Brighton and Southampton all waiting to see if Bolton Wanderers will do business on 17-year-old Luca Connell.

[Lewis @LewisDuckworth8]

Afc kirkby u16 sat side playing in Liverpool county prem... looking for a player if anyone interested

[DMSefton @SeftonDm]

@forgedaboutitt @etonrifles1980 @Michael05141186 @SaveKnowsleySFA @SchoolsFootball @KnowsleySFA @KnowsleyCouncil I have to say that Knowsley Council have already shown more support for those boys that we have received from Sefton in years.

[steven robinson @steve241270]

Last shout out any under 16s looking for game in morning? Liverpool area

[DMSefton @SeftonDm]

It amazes me that the @SchoolsFootball, some County Associations and the @FA are willing to turn a blind eye to the involvement of people such as agents in Schools Football yet are straight on to @KnowsleySFA for providing boys a huge opportunity to play.
Priorities WRONG.
