Matt Armstrong Ford

In peace here.

He's been on loan at Biddy since the beginning of the season and I have been very impressed when I've seen him. I was absolutely flabbergasted when I found out he was only 17, because he has an assurance and calmness about him that makes you think he's been around for ages.

Watch this space.....

(PS Yes Argyle are sh*t, yes the club is going down the pan, yes you'll probably beat us in December, yes I'd rather watch Bideford.)

Yes, I love your honesty!

Do you have anything constructive to add on MAF?

Its good to hear he is doing well. How are Bideford doing? They had progressed in the trophy, but don't check on their results.

That's good to hear. But Bideford are a long way from League 1. If he stands any chance of getting into the first team, which will be a few years, he needs to be on loan at a conference team at least

...No offence to Bideford!

I think as a 17 year old this would suit him fine. Close to home, able to continue his education, and train with City.

Does he play in the youth team in the FA Youth Cop anyone know?

According to the Hudersfield programme he's 6 4 and I guess might still be growing?

He's only 17, so very very young for a Goalie theres plenty of time for him to improve. As I say he's already got a presence about him and could be one to watch for the future.

Bideford have aquitted themselves quite well thus far, they got knocked out by Hornchurch in the FA trophy on Saturday but were properly outclasssed.

I didn't realise he that young.

Just checked the profile on our official site, he was born on 28/07/1989, and is now 6ft 6in.

So, my bit about education and the FA Youth Cup is complete nonsense.
