It was a good weekend alround for the Academy. Prior to the 3-0 Under-18 win at Southampton it was announced that Academy Midfielder Damon Lathrope has been offered a 2 1/2 year professional contract after impressing manager Glen Roeder.

It also emerged that keeper Declan Rudd has returned to the England Under-17 squad following his injury lay-off before Christmas.
