As far as I know Selwyn still 100% behind the Burnley venture. I would be suprised if it wasn't seeing Graham McCann head of coaching at the club and it seems like Martin Allen's baby who I think is still coaching U13/U14? team at the club. Trials at Brookside tomorrow so may pop across for a look. Definitely being plugged as the option rather than spending all the $ in fuel/time trekking kids into town for FTC. I would think the point of very few/no age grade players from Mainland area making national age group teams that this will be used as a selling point for Burnley. Although really what do you have a higher chance of doing- playing for NZ age group or a professional side in UK?
