Mr Broadhurst, whose 23rd birthday would have been yesterday (Wednesday) was taken to hospital with a serious stab injury but was pronounced dead an hour later.
A second man, aged 46, who lives in Chelmsley Wood, suffered a hand injury and was also taken to hospital.A police spokesperson said: "It's understood the incident was the culmination of disorder that initially broke out at nearby St Anne's Social Club and then spilled over into Nineacres Drive."
Nineacres Drive, the street where Mr Broadhurst was found, was cordoned off from Sunday to Wednesday while forensic investigators scrutinised the scene. Flowers and notes littered the adjacent Bosworth Drive, the road with the social club on it. And last night (Wednesday) at 6pm, friends visited the area, now known to them as 'Harry's Spot', to pay their respects and wish him 'happy birthday.'
Tributes to Mr Broadhurst, who was a company director of his steel manufacturing business, Mount (UK) Ltd, have also poured in on social networking website, Facebook.
More than 300 people have signed up to a page dedicated to his memory and his sister, Millie, left this message: "Words can't explain how much I love you, and I miss you that much it hurts. We all love you and we won't go a day without thinking of you, you're our everything."
In the comments section of another website, one of his cousins, Issy Rowles, says: "The world lost an angel. Harry Broadhurst, such a kind person, you were only trying to do the right thing. Nobody can imagine being in a world where you're not, but you're in a better place now it's such a shame that you had to leave us all behind. It hurts an unreal amount to know that I can't see you. Even though you're gone you will never ever be forgotten, you made such a huge impact on so many people."
The afternoon boxing meet at St Anne's social club, where police believe the disorder erupted, was described by residents as a family event.

4.5 better then the hpm 70 Mabzy91 | 28/07/2009 | See all Mabzy91's reviews (10) these are probabaly the best headphones that i have ever owned. i thought the hpm 70 was the best earphone ever but, this is in a different league. i got these of this site for £13.99 but that was during the sale. its gone up now. but even at this price its still worth the money. the looks of it are slick. the metal with the black outer colour will look good whatever ur wearing. trust me u will not be disapointed. btw i got these in 3 days. so its fast delivary.
4.5 Brilliant!!! steviboy | 17/07/2009 | See all steviboy's reviews (2) These headphones are amazing when compared to the standard ones. Rich, deep bass without distorting the treble, much better quality than other headphones i've owned (HPM-70). Also works with C905. Excellent value for money too, got mine for under £7 on playtrade with very quick delivery. Very impressed. *****
4.5 Without a doubt the best for the price. pravinpatil41 | 04/06/2009 | See all pravinpatil41's reviews (1) This is my 3rd pair of headphones. The first one was the HPM70 which I got with my W890i. I lost them. Then I got HPM70 for a fiver again from play.com but was extreamly dissappointed with them as they were not the original ones and the sound quality was just terrible. Then I got these from a local store for £13. And yes, the sound quality is far more beautiful than the HPM70's. Excellent deep bass but without muffling and loosing the treble. Deliver both with precision. Its a pleasure to listen to the beautiful music that comes from these pair of headphones. I thought the HPM70s are the best headphones untill I got these. They just blow you away and give u goosebumps. You wont be dissappointed for sure. It had got an adapter with a 3.5 mm headphone jack so u can connect it wid ur laptop as well which was a pleasent surprise. Overall, exteamly happy wid the purchase. Just buy'em.

4.5 these are amazing Dabradders007 | 28/10/2008 | See all Dabradders007's reviews (10) I bought some of these to replace the standard headphone i got with the phone and what a difference!! The sound quality is far superior and well worth the money. The fact you can take your calls from these as well just adds to the value. Simple and easy to use, buy them and save ur ears
4.5 GREAT HANDSFREE EXPERIENCE! boyband1982 | 27/10/2008 | See all boyband1982's reviews (3) Everything about the HPM-77 was designed for brilliant audio quality. It's def the headset to buy for listening to music the way it was supposed to be listened to on your mobile.The built-in call answering button helps you find yourself when an incoming call interrupts your music listening.The clear sound, deep bass and performance is amazing whilethe microphone, call answer key and 3.5 mm jack to swap headphones are all built-in which is really useful.It was also compatible with both my C702 & K810iI would definately recommend this product!!!

Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
For Office Managers in San Francisco, level of experience appears to be a somewhat less important part of the salary calculation — more experience does not correlate to noticeably higher pay. Salaries of relatively inexperienced workers fall in the neighborhood of $49K, but folks who have racked up five to 10 years see a notably higher median of $55K. San Francisco Office Managers see a median salary of $58K after reaching one to two decades on the job. Veterans who have acquired more than 20 years report a median income of $62K, which is generally higher than the pay reported by other tenure groups.

Introducing leggings. You'll never run out of inspiration.
In the house
All is quiet
All is peaceful
The telephone rings
'Hello' I say
You answer me
Tell me you've
Had an accident
That you rolled the car
Misjudged a bend
In the thickness of fog
I ask if you are okay
You tell me yes
Just shook up a little
The seatbelt held you firm
Or it may have been
Another story
The roof and windscreen
Battered smashed in
The car a write off
I don't care
I need to see you
Check you are okay
Emergency services
Come take detail
Upturn the car
Back onto its wheels
Insurance will sort that
I call you again
Not knowing where you are
If anyone has got to you
You answer
The police are with you
They will drop you home
Still I am anxious
I wait
Time is endless
I just want to hold you
Know you're not concussed
That you are fine
Because I know
You would not want
To worry me
You get home
I embrace you
Look at you
Your eyes are
Clearly showing shock
We get a drink
We sit we chat
We are thankful
The telephone call
Could have been
So very different
Had you not had
Your seat belt on
Or been going faster
Or involved another vehicle
I'm so very grateful
You were spared
To return back home to me
His Guardian Angel was obviously on its toes. Lovely writing very moving.
OHHHH PHEWWWWWW……I would have called you …ohhhhh so glad everything is ok…..
Thank you both. I certainly count my blessings and his, you really don't know what's around the corner!
Thank you, you're right Susan, and it comes when you least expect it! Appreciate your comments.
Beautifully written!
Thank you Carol, appreciated.
Flash, Flash, Flash…. this took me a while to work over. It's jarring, a bit choppy, and at first I was uncomfortable. Then though, I found I was seeing each moment in the minds eye like I have seeing things during a crisis… how you must have been feeling at the time. When the heart is skipping and one is fearing deeply, there is no time for lengthy or flowery prose, there is simply urgency. So I love it… it grows well on a reader I'd say, and I've seen a number of sides to you… I think I'll search on more, if you don't mind…
Search ahead, feel free. Thanks for your honesty and reviews/comments. I tend to try to write so the reader has simple understanding and immediately familiar with where I'm at, I do not have one style or form hence the pen takes me.

RAMALLAH, West Bank: A Palestinian court has sentenced an exiled rival of President Mahmoud Abbas to two years in jail for "insulting state institutions", raising pressure on Mohammed Dahlan after months of mutual recriminations.
The court ruling was dated March 6, but the verdict was only published in a West Bank newspaper on Tuesday. There was no immediate comment from Dahlan, who lives in the Gulf.
Once a prominent official in Abbas's Western-backed Fatah movement, Dahlan was ousted from the group in 2011 following accusations of corruption. He always asserted his innocence and remains a powerful figure on the sidelines, seen by supporters as a possible successor to the ageing Abbas.
The court ruling said Palestinian officials, including a top security leader, had accused Dahlan of defamation for what they said was his description of Palestinian security forces in the West Bank as guards serving only to protect Israeli settlers.
The court said Dahlan had also defamed Abbas by accusing him of manipulating the Palestinian Authority, which has limited autonomy in the Israeli-occupied West Bank.
It was not immediately clear if the Palestinian government would ask Abu Dhabi to extradite Dahlan, who enjoys relative support in some Arab capitals, including Cairo.
Perhaps concerned by his growing international influence, Abbas launched a scathing attack on Dahlan in March, accusing him of involvement in six murders and hinting he might have been behind the 2004 death of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat.
Dahlan hit back in a lengthy interview on Egyptian television, branding Abbas a "catastrophe" for Palestinians.

Lastly, Rick will discuss strategies to uncover the business rules, as these will be the true limiting factors of how far a consolidation effort can go.
He'll also take a look at Microsoft's latest Fast Track architecture for a Private Cloud and how that may play into your strategy.
You'll learn:
Rick Heiges is a SQL Server MVP and a Solutions Architect with Scalability Experts.

Rick holds an MBA and a M.S. in MIS and a B.S. in Computer Science. He has worked as a professor, developer, trainer, database administrator, and project manager/leader. Rick served on the PASS Board of Directors from 2003 – 2011 and started the 24 Hours of PASS virtual events.
I come from a very heavy background in SQL Server consolidation (VM, Hardware, instance stacking, SQL Server farms, clustered instance stacking, etc.) so there was not a lot of new information that I got from the presentation. It was however very nicely presented and put together, and I would definitely recommend this presentation for someone who is new to database consolidation.

My feedback is relative. Since my level of understanding when it comes to systems management and Sql Server management is lower than most in that audience, SOME of the material was over my head in terms of the specifics but understandable in broader strokes.

Good info, interesting tips on running sql as vm guests. Glad to see more people doing that.

A nun. A dead baby. An arrest. And now, if the court-appointed psychiatrist found her sane, a long, sensational trial. But Dr. Martha Livingston knew it was more complicated than that. How did you judge a twenty-one-year-old girl who wasn't sure where babies came from? Who didn't even remember having one . . . or what happened to him? Especially when a strong-willed Mother

I had mixed feelings about this book when I started to read it. I remember my parents having watched the movie on tv when I was young. I hadn't been very interested in it at the time, but now, as an adult, I thought it would be interesting. When I actually picked the book up and realized that it was based on the movie and not the other way around, I had my misgivings. I didn't think the quality of the writing would be up to par. As a rule, I prefer movies to be based on books, and in that case t
When a dead newborn is found, wrapped in bloody sheets, in the bedroom wastebasket of a young novitiate, psychiatrist Martha Livingston is called in to determine if the seemingly innocent novice, who knows nothing of sex or birth, is competent enough to stand trial for the murder of the baby. While searching for the answer that her supervisors want, Dr. Livingston finds herself inevitably drawn into searching for the truth about the baby's conception and death. Despite the lack of cooperation th
I didn't realize this started out as a play and then a movie. It was a book from a box that my dad had given me, so I thought I'd give it a shot.
It was decent, but nothing spectacular. It felt rather like a Law & Order episode to me, and was probably short enough to actually be one. I was a little disappointed that one of the major mysteries was never solved.

My family loves cookies but if I bake the entire batch all at once we have a tendency to go through them all in a day or two. To help us control our cookie consumption, I have started making a couple of batches and freezing the dough so that I can bake only what we want to eat at a time. We have enjoyed having a greater variety this way and it saves time. I used mini chocolate chips in this recipe which makes them easier to evenly scoop and you are sure to get chocolate in every bite!

How Will Gazprom (OGZPY) Stock Be Affected By S&P Downgrade?
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Shares of Gazprom OAO (OGZPY) were downgraded today by Standard & Poor's Ratings Services because of its ties to the Russian government.
The stock is currently up 3.15% to $7.20
The ratings were lowered to match the sovereign debt rating of Russia, which were dropped last week to BBB-, the lowest investment grade rating, the Wall Street Journal reported.
Analysts at S&P said the downgrade to Gazprom and five other government-related entities was due to the "expectation of extraordinary government support or negative intervention by the government," for those entities.

BRIGHTON — Prairie View High School biology students were invited to attend and participate in a local biology learning experience and clean-up project last month.
The students gained first-hand knowledge of their classroom biology themes that they will study in class and also earned community service hours while helping out a local biological area.
ADAMS COUNTY — A young bald eagle whose parents built a nest a few yards away from E-470's 120th Avenue interchange in Adams County is nearly ready to make its first flight. It's hoped the youngster won't be tempted to play in tollway traffic.
Taking steps to prevent that from happening, the Raptor Education Foundation is recruiting volunteers to serve as eagle monitors to help steer the fledging out of harm's way.
BRIGHTON — United Healthcare presented the Adams County Board of Commissioners with the company's prestigious 2012 "Well Deserved Golden Apple Award" March 20 in honor of the county's employee wellness program. The award is given to employers who demonstrate an exceptional commitment to helping their employees improve their health and well-being through worksite wellness programs.
BRIGHTON — A drought-caused public fish salvage started Monday at Barr Lake. Colorado Parks and Wildlife said the drought is causing high irrigation demands in the lake. As a result, water levels are being drained to a conservation level of 442 acre-feet. The salvage piece helps the lake use the fish resource. Visitors need a state parks pass ($7 per day; $70 for the year) and a valid fishing license. All legal fishing methods are OK.
Ask any mom, triplets are exciting news.
COMMERCE CITY – The eighth annual REI/Sand Creek Greenway Volunteer Work Day will be from 8 a.m. to noon, Sept. 3, at the Smith Road Trailhead west of Havana Street. It's a joint project between the greenway partnership, Denver Parks and Recreation, Aurora Parks Recreation and Open Space and Commerce City Parks and Recreation.
A community's history and the outdoors side of that history go hand in hand. Invariably, a community's early history was more tied to and offered more outdoors experiences than our larger, modern and far more urbanized communities today. It is how the communities grew yet latched on to some of the outdoors.
Most big-game hunters have been advised of their application draw results, but not all have received their refund checks. Refunds will be minus the $3 application fee and each refund will be issued separately for a specific species. Preference points should be monitored carefully by hunters, because they enhance one's application success in future years. Preference point status can be checked on the DOW website "Hunting/Big Game Page."
With a record-breaking spring runoff about to create near flood conditions on our favorite streams and rivers, and lake and reservoir water temperatures still below ideal catching levels, anglers are looking for some sure-fire fishing opportunities. Two upcoming fishing tournaments are just the solution. One offers anglers a combination fun, competitive day on the water with a very worthy charitable cause, the American Cancer Society, that will be hosting the annual Relay for Life events all along the Front Range in June.
BRIGHTON – Barr Lake State Park is celebrating the annual spring hatching of its clutch of eaglets. For almost 25 years, bald eagles have nested in Barr Lake's wildlife refuge. The habitat of Barr Lake is perfect for one pair of nesting bald eagles with large old cottonwoods, rich food sources and little disturbance.

POOLER, Ga. (AP) — Ten people were taken to the hospital Wednesday after firefighters found two customers unconscious inside a bathroom and others struggling to breathe at a McDonald's restaurant, authorities said.
One of the customers found unconscious was in critical condition, Pooler Fire Chief Wade Simmons said.
A second person was also admitted to the hospital in nearby Savannah, while the other eight were treated and released, said Memorial University Medical Center spokeswoman Bryna Gordon.
Simmons said firefighters smelled an unusual odor, and the restaurant was evacuated. He said people were complaining of difficulty breathing.
At least 20 people, including three Pooler firefighters, were decontaminated by a hazardous materials team as a precaution, Simmons said. Authorities suspect cleaning chemicals in the restroom are to blame, but a specific cause had not been determined.
Firefighters ventilated the building and took air samples to make certain the restaurant was safe, Pooler Fire Capt. Scott Cribbs said Wednesday night.
A statement issued by McDonald's on behalf of franchisees John and Monique Palamccio said that the restaurant reopened after authorities deemed it safe.
"The safety of our customers and employees is always a priority," they said in the statement. "We wish everyone involved a speedy recovery."
Fumes in Georgia McDonald's Send 10 to Hospital
At least 20 people, including three Pooler firefighters, were decontaminated.

While the Supreme Court did not offer any new guidance on the application of § 101, discussions in both the Kennedy and Stevens opinions raise policy issues that biotech companies should take under consideration.
Justice Kennedy, in a portion of his opinion that does not form part of the majority opinion, recognized that the machine or transformation test may not be well-suited for "determining the patentability of inventions in the Information Age." Kennedy noted that the test "would create uncertainty as to the patentability of . . . advanced diagnostic medicine techniques," citing the amicus brief of BIO.
Kennedy emphasized "the larger object of securing patents for valuable inventions without transgressing the public domain," and warned that "the patent law faces a great challenge in striking the balance between protecting inventors and not granting monopolies over procedures that others would discover by independent, creative application of general principles."
Justice Stevens raised a different balancing issue in his concurring opinion, which was joined by Justices Ginsburg, Breyer, and Sotomayor. Stevens considered the "dynamics of cost, risk, and reward," and noted that "scholars generally agree that when innovation is expensive, risky, and easily copied, inventors are less likely to undertake the guaranteed costs of innovation in order to obtain the mere possibility of an invention that others can copy."
Stevens reasoned that "whether a patent monopoly is necessary to motivate the innovation" is a subject matter-specific inquiry, and suggests that deciding whether a process can be patented under § 101 likewise requires a subject matter-specific inquiry into whether granting a patent "would, on balance, facilitate or impede . . . progress."
Biotech companies may not be concerned about these policy issues, assuming that the high costs and high risks of innovation in the complex fields of biotechnology will always weigh in favor of patent protection. However, the BRCA1 breast cancer case brought by the ACLU against Myriad Genetics' gene patents has many arguing that patent protection is not needed to promote genetic research.
The ACLU and others believe that government entities will undertake the research necessary to identify genetic markers and develop related diagnostic methods, and argue that patents hinder, not help, innovation in these fields. Those on the other side say that these arguments underestimate the complexities and costs of the research required to identify and validate genetic markers, and translate that research from laboratory bench to patient bedside.
The district court determined that Myriad's patents are invalid under § 101 because they claim "products of nature" and "abstract mental processes". Myriad appealed to the Federal Circuit, which may consider this case together with Prometheus.
The remand of Prometheus and the appeal in Myriad give biotech companies an opportunity to have their voices heard on these issues, through individual and group amicus briefs to the Federal Circuit. In the meantime, those seeking patents in this field probably will be advised to pursue claims that pass the machine or transformation test and include concrete language to minimize the risk of being found to be an abstract idea or natural phenomenon.
Should bans on science education, of the sort imposed on Iranians hoping to study physics and engineering in the United States, encompass other nationals and other fields of study, including biotechnology?

Firstly, apologies for a slightly more brief report this time around. It was a very cold afternoon and I forgot my gloves – as a result, I can barely read my notes, and there are far less of them too! Secondly, to put this match into a bit of context: we were playing the second-placed team (before this match they were two points ahead of us having played two more games) and we were playing our second match in less than 48 hours. We made nine changes from the side that beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-0 in the FA Youth Cup, with just Anton Walkes and Luke Amos keeping their places.
Walkes and Amos – both of whom turn 18 in February – made up the most experienced element of the team, whilst Marcus Edwards (making his first start) and Kazaiah Sterling (making his second start) were promoted from the Under-16s.
We set up with a back four made up of four central midfielders, although Anton Walkes seems to now play at centre-back more than anywhere else, so perhaps it's sensible to start thinking of that as his main position. Amos, Lloyd Ross and Chris Paul had all filled in in these positions before, but the full-backs did struggle pretty much throughout this match.
Former Spur Kodi Lyons-Foster was playing at centre-back for Villa, who had a front pairing of Rushian Hepburn-Murphy and Harry McKirdy – both of whom have consistently scored goals throughout the season so far. England Under-16 winger Andre Green lined up on the left with Swedish 16-year old Moustafa Zeidan on the right.
Spurs started off kicking into the strong wind and it was immediately clear that Villa's game plan was to press high and trap us inside our ownhalf. The away side won two early corners – Tom Glover came to claim the second, but didn't get near to the ball as the wind the conditions difficult.
Andre Green signalled his intentions after five minutes, beating Chris Paul and putting in a cross which Amos anticipated well and blocked. Spurs went up the other end and got some respite as Loft made the ball stick and went on a dribble which won a corner, but Owens' kick was cleared. Edwards then showed his ability with some early touches, linking with Loft and feeding Sterling before Villa got on the attack again.
Green beat Paul for a second time, and this time the full-back absolutely scythed him down from behind, drawing a strong response from the Aston Villa bench. The referee did Paul a big favour and resisted the temptation to show a yellow card.
Villa took the lead minutes later – Owens (I think) made a loose pass, McKirdy picked up possession and came forward before getting a shot away. It hit the inside of the post, went back along the line, and seemed to go in off the unfortunate Luke Amos, who had got back onto the line to try to clear. The linesman flagged frantically to confirm that the ball had crossed the line.
Paul did well to chase down a high ball over his shoulder and come away with the ball, but Green came back at him and won it back – fortunately for Paul, Glover came out to smother as Green advanced into the box. A minute later and Green was beating Paul again but Glover got the ball out for a corner. Spurs didn't organise quickly enough and a short corner created a shooting opportunity far too easily. Glover got down very smartly to save the low, deflected effort, before bellowing out to his team that he had told them about the space that the shot came in from.
Spurs made a rare foray into the Villa half – Stylianides broke forward and picked out Sterling, who used the ball intelligently to find Ross on the left. He fed a cross into Loft at the near post, but it was under-hit and Loft couldn't come off the near post quickly enough to get to the flight of the ball.
On the other side, Armani Daly beat two men and won a throw, but it was feeling like a real struggle – having to use tricks to wriggle past two just to win a throw pretty much summed up how the first half had gone for Spurs.
25 minutes in Glover saved a stinging shot as Spurs started to get a little foothold and began to restrict Villa better.
Luke Amos went down after a poor challenge from McKirdy; the physio rushed on and there was a brief stoppage. Pretty much as soon as Amos was on, it was 2-0. Walkes' clearance held up a little in the wind, Lyons-Foster helped it forward, and Hepburn-Murphy broke through between Walkes and Ross with a clear run on goal. Glover came out but perhaps would have been better off staying on his line, as the forward lifted it over his legs and into the unguarded next – an excellent finish.
Spurs had a little injustice 34 minutes in – Edwards got away from his man with some skill and was brought down from behind, but the referee did not even award him a free-kick. A few minutes later and Rory Hale was booked for dragging Daly back by his shirt as he looked to get in down the right.
Hepburn-Murphy made inroads down the right for another effort which won Villa a corner, before Edwards went on a run which opened Villa up. He fed Daly who had a shooting opportunity if he hit it first time, but he cut back – a tee-up for Edwards was on, but he dallied and the defender got a vital foot in.
The second half started with an early booking for Lloyd Ross as he tackled Zeidan but Spurs were far, far better from the off. Sterling beat his man on the outside and put in a left foot cross that was slightly too high for Loft. Loft returned the favour, crossing for Sterling, but this one was just over-hit too.
Stylianides volleyed inches wide from a Ross cross, before another cross towards Loft evaded him slightly on the stretch
Glover was called into action again, making a very good low stop to his right after Hepburn-Murphy had advanced on the left and had a crack.
Captain Charlie Owens made a bit of a mess of a free-kick after Edwards had been fouled, hitting it well over the bar from a decent position.
Spurs replaced Ross and Loft with Harrison and Georgiou – two of the best performers in Thursday night's cup match – and they had an instant impact. Sterling did well out on the left, Georgiou overlapped from full-back and his cross fell to Stylianides. He found Harrison who turned neatly and finished well with his left foot.
Cy Goddard was introduced for Daly, and he and Edwards schemed away trying to create, but Villa were holding firm.
Edwards somehow kept the ball with the most audacious turn, which saw him on the ground swivelling and leaving defenders in his wake, before teeing up Sterling who himself turned well and got a shot away which right-back Ryan Strain blocked.
Villa had a rare breakaway from which Green fired across goal, but Georgiou was in command and helped it out for a corner.
I had to leave a bit early to get to White Hart Lane, but I'm told that Goddard and Sterling had half-chances but we were unable to get an equaliser.
It was a tough, tough match for what was effectively (at least at this stage in their careers) a second choice eleven, but I felt quite proud of the way that the players battled back in the second half. We beat Villa 1-0 earlier in the season with our first choice team, and I think we would have made it a double had we not had the Youth Cup match this week.
Tom Glover 6 – made some solid saves and was vocal throughout – not an easy day for a keeper with the wind being so strong. I felt he perhaps made the wrong decision for the second goal, but it's easy to say that in hindsight.
Chris Paul 4 – Andre Green gave Paul an absolutely torrid time in the first half, and had it been a first team match he'd have been walking a tightrope as we would undoubtedly have been booked for an early challenge. Credit to him for coming out and improving as the match went on – he showed a lot of determination and perseverance, and won a few more of his battles.
Luke Amos 7 – despite not being the biggest (he's tall but slim), Amos filled in admirably, exhibiting his ability to read the game, and putting himself on the line when necessary. His passing out from the back was vital for controlling possession in the second half.
Anton Walkes 7 – a calming presence at the back, but occasionally vulnerable to a ball over the top. Carried the ball out of defence with confidence and won plenty in the air.
Lloyd Ross 5 – he's not a full-back and never will be, but he stuck to his task relatively well.
Zenon Stylianides 6 – struggled in the first half when we didn't have the ball, but was good in the second, helping to control possession and break forward when necessary.
Charlie Owens 5 – as with Stylianides he was poor in the first half, but got a lot better as the game went on and as we had more of the ball.
Armani Daly 6 – was often left isolated and so struggled – not through a lack of trying, though. I think had he had a more natural right-back behind him, he'd have had far more success.
Marcus Edwards 7 – my first proper look at the much-hyped midfielder. The ball sticks to him, and he showed some glorious touches too – one in particular where he cushioned a pass first time to a teammate from a firm square ball from Sterling stood out. As he adapts to playing against more physical players he's going to be a hugely important player in this team.
Kazaiah Sterling 6 – tried hard throughout but didn't get much change from a good full-back (Liam Hailey). Looking forward to seeing more of him as there's lots to admire in his game.
Ryan Loft 6 – the first half was very difficult for Loft, but he tried to make the ball stick and had some joy. He looked far better as we started to see more of the ball.
Anthony Georgiou 7 – came on in an unfamiliar left-back role and showed plenty of tenacity and attacking intent.
Shayon Harrison 7 – you can't ask much more than coming off the bench and scoring!
Cy Goddard – was creative and lively off the bench.

Josh Onomah – a profile
17-year old Josh Onomah made his Tottenham Hotspur debut last night, coming off the bench to replace Andros Townsend on 76 minutes.
Tim Sherwood took Josh to Benfica with the first-team squad as a 16-year old, and the player was then also an unused substitute against Dnipropetrovsk in February, Beşiktaş in December and the first leg of the Burnley tie earlier this month. Born and raised in Enfield, he has been talked up by most who have seen him over the past two years – myself included.
He's a central midfielder, and his main attributes are his dribbling, balance, pace, and strength. He's strong in possession and hard to knock off the ball – the way that he bursts into gaps and dribbles in a natural, powerful way have earned him the nickname 'Pogba-lite' amongst some; the likeness is clear to see.
Josh joined Spurs as an Under-9, and has represented England at Under-16, 17 and 18 levels. He was a part of the England Under-17 squad that won the European Championships in May, 2013. It sometimes feels that when a young player gets picked for the national side at youth level, that they are subsequently kept in and around the set-up regardless of their progress or the progress of alternative options. However, with Onomah it feels natural that he will continue to represent England all the way to Under-21 level, and hopefully beyond.
Martin Lipton, the Daily Mirror journalist, named Onomah in his 'How England might look in 2018 XI' back in July 2014, saying: "I'm backing Tottenham's Joshua Onomah to fulfil his promise and come through."
Onomah is so highly-rated internally that, despite technically being a second-year scholar, he has already signed a professional contract. This generally happens when the club wants to tie exceptional players down, and is quite a rare occurrence at Spurs.
I first saw Onomah as a 15-year old and it was immediately clear that he was immensely talented, although he was quite loose with some of his passing. There had appeared to be question marks over his temperament – I remember seeing him with a face like thunder after one match, with Academy Manager, John McDermott talking to him with his arm around his shoulder as he walked off the pitch. Talk around Hotspur Way was that he got frustrated quickly – whether that was frustration at his own performances, or frustration because he was better than his teammates, I'm unsure. Regardless, in May 2014, McDermott commented on his maturity and it seemed that he had really turned a corner in this respect:
"Another thing I'm pleased about is that he's matured as a young man, not just on the football pitch, but off it. I'm really pleased with his overall development, not just his football development."
His post-match interview yesterday was genuinely endearing – he looked so happy to have made his debut and spoke well about where he goes from here.
If you'd like more information on Josh, I recommend reading this fantastic profile from Reddit user RifleEyez.
And below are some more links which might be of interest.

Spurs U18s to participate in Frenz International Cup
Fresh from winning the IMG Cup in Florida, Spurs will participate in the Frenz International Cup in Malaysia in early January.
Once again, the team will play against a variety of sides of different nationalities, and it should prove to be a useful experience.
We are in Group D, and our schedule is as follows
Sunday 4th Jan, 21:00 (13:00 UK time) vs Frenz United FC (Malaysia)
Tuesday 6th Jan, 16:30 (08:30 UK time) vs AIFF India (India)
Thursday 6th Jan, 16:30 (08:30 UK time) vs Estudiante FC (Argentina)
All matches will be streamed via the official tournament site.
I am trying to find out the exact squad list, but Musa Yahaya's agent, Babawo Mohammed, has confirmed that he has returned to Nigeria in order to obtain a visa for the competition:
"Musa is back in Nigeria to get a visa to travel with Spurs for an U19 tournament in Malaysia. He could not get such a visa in London because he is a minor and that was why he returned to Nigeria." (via AfricanFootball.com).
Cameron Carter-Vickers misses out as he is on international duty. Joe Pritchard and Charlie Hayford miss out through injury. Under-16 players Japhet Tanganga and Kaziah Sterling are included in the squad although Lloyd Ross misses out having been born in 1996 (the tournament is for players born in or after 1997).

Getting to know Grant Ward
Grant Ward doesn't turn 20 until December. There aren't many 19-year old English footballers who can say they've experienced top-flight football in another country.
It was a very brave decision of Ward to move halfway across the world to play for Chicago Fire in the MLS. The move has paid off, though, and after 20 appearances for 'The Fire' (scoring once), Ward has come back to Tottenham with the match day experience that young players need.
Ward moved in March, and so spent around eight months in the States. He told the American press that the experience developed him and allowed him to "become more independent." He knows that Chicago Fire want to take him back for next season, and is open to the proposal.
Grant agreed to answer a few of my questions about the move – thanks to him for taking the time.
How did the move to Chicago Fire come about?
The manger Frank Yallop was in town for a few weeks, he watched a few reserves games, I played well and he asked if I would like to have a season in the MLS.
Had you seen much MLS football before the move? Did you know what you were letting yourself in for?
I had seen an odd goal or two from Henry but, to be honest, no because games are not televised much over here. After I knew it was an option to go there I did manage to watch a few games.
Did you notice any major differences in either the coaching or playing style out there?
My coaches out there did similar sessions to what I do at Tottenham but the tempo in the MLS is a lot slower overall and I feel a lot of teams like to sit behind the ball.
What was the thing you enjoyed most about your loan experience?
I enjoyed playing against some of the players I watched growing up as a kid like, Henry, Keane, etc. I also enjoyed living in Chicago, it's a very nice city.
And what did you enjoy least?
I enjoyed the whole experience apart from the rules that America has that no one tells you, like you cannot park near a fire-hydrant, this resulted in a few parking tickets!
Have you seen much of DeAndre Yedlin? [I was hoping that Grant may have caught him in person.]
I watched him in the World Cup, he played well when he came on and seemed to have a lot of pace.
Have you been given any feedback about the move from Spurs? Did they go to watch you out there?
Yes I received a lot of feedback and they came out to watch my last game against Houston.
Which players at Spurs do you look up to in training? Who stands out?
Growing up I always looked up to Lennon but also Eriksen and Dembele are very good trainers.
You have played at full-back and on the wing. Which position do you see yourself playing long-term?
I could see my self playing in either position but I enjoy playing on the wing or when I have the licence to go forward at full-back.
What are your aspirations for the next two or three years?
To maybe go on loan a few more times to gain some more experience to help me break into the first team.
Grant is likely to play for our Under-21s over the coming weeks, and it'll be fascinating to see how he has progressed as a player. I wish him all the best for the future.

25/10/14 Tottenham Hotspur U18s 2-1 Reading U18s, Hotspur Way
Tom Glover (16)
Chris Paul (17) Anton Walkes (17) Christian Maghoma (16) Joe Muscatt (16)
Joe Pritchard (18) (c) Luke Amos (17)
Kyle Walker-Peters (17) Cy Goddard (17) Anthony Georgiou (17)
Shayon Harrison (17)
Zenon Stylianides (16) for Chris Paul, 54.
Tashan Oakley-Boothe (15?) for Anthony Georgiou, 78.
Aramide Oteh (15?) for Joe Pritchard, 78.
Unused sub:
Alfie Whiteman (16)
Spurs were missing Ismail Azzaoui (Belgium international duty), Ryan Loft (who was playing in the ongoing U17 tournament which we won*), Cameron Carter-Vickers who I suspect will be playing for the U21s on Monday, as well as recent substitute, Marcus Edwards, as the 15-year old was away playing for the England U17s (they won 4-1 against Cyprus and he bagged a goal and an assist).
The starting eleven had a familiar feel, though, even if the substitutes bench housed some new names. Aramide (spelt "Aremide" on the team sheet so apologies if I've got this wrong!) Oteh and Tashan "Tash" Oakley-Boothe (who is supposedly one of the brightest prospects in our Academy) played in an U14 tournament last January so this was a big step up for both and an encouraging sign.
The formation was sometimes 4-1-4-1 (with Amos the deepest midfielder), sometimes 4-2-3-1 (with Goddard as the 10), and sometimes 4-3-3. It's also worth nothing that in the dugout for Spurs – amongst others – was part-time coach, Ledley King.
There was a minute's silence prior to kick off for Club Historian, Andy Porter, a regular attender of youth matches, who sadly passed away in the week aged just 54. For more information about Andy and his terrific work for the club, please see the obituary on the official site.
It was a fast, open start with Spurs exhibiting pace in key areas. Anthony Georgiou expressed his intentions early with a powerful run down the left. He did well to get a cross in but when it was headed out to Pritchard, he volleyed well over the bar.
A Reading free-kick to the left of the penalty box was taken short which gave Pritchard an opportunity to charge it down in typically fearless style, and the follow-up was blocked by Walkes.
Spurs took the lead on 10 minutes. Walker-Peters won a corner and Georgiou's kick looked harmless until Cy Goddard got a foot to a misdirected Walkes volley and looped the ball over the goalkeeper, landing it perfectly in the far corner.
Soon after, Tom Glover was grateful to Luke Amos, who cleared off the line after the goalkeeper's fumble in the box as the game became increasingly open.
Joe Muscatt beat his man with a clever piece of skill and found Pritchard with an intelligent cut-back. When Pritchard's low shot was blocked, Muscatt did well to track back and immediately regain possession.
Georgiou teed up Goddard after another positive burst but his weak shot drifted wide.
Harrison had his first glimpse of goal when he was found by Georgiou and hit a firm shot on the turn – it was easily blocked on this occasion but he doubled the lead minutes later.
Chris Paul made a positive charge from right-back and fired in a low cross, Harrison darted across his man and finished deftly over the goalkeeper at the near post for 2-0.
Reading's number 7, Conor Davis, was proving a tricky customer, and he beat two men on the left but, as he cut inside, he curled his shot straight at Glover.
Georgiou stood a ball up into the box but Goddard couldn't quite meet the ball cleanly as he arrived on the penalty spot, and he sliced it wide.
Harrison made a clever dart in behind and was found by a fabulous Pritchard long ball, but his attempted lob was partially blocked and then collected by the goalkeeper.
Conor Davis beat Paul again and, when he was hauled down, the referee decided to call Paul over for a final warning.
Paul nearly had more luck at the other end when he was picked out by Harrison, but he struck his first-time strike into the ground and off a defender and it ran to safety for Reading.
Walkes won the ball well and found Georgiou, who beat his man and saw his cross blocked, only for the referee to give a goal kick – Georgiou let the referee know that he was not best pleased with the decision.
Goddard nearly made it three just before half-time when the ball broke to him in the box and his left-footed attempt went just wide.
Early in the second half Reading's left-back, Jake Sheppard, got the better of Chris Paul and put in a threatening cross which fortunately (for us) fell just ahead of the forward.
Spurs had a clear opening five minutes into the half when the ball broke kindly for Kyle Walker-Peters to run at two retreating defenders. He carried the ball most of the length of the pitch but, with Georgiou screaming for the ball at the far post, he couldn't avoid the two men between him and his teammate, and his attempted pass was easily cut out.
Reading went straight down the other end and Maghoma was called upon to do some sterling defensive work – he went to ground in the box, winning the ball cleanly and able to bring it clear, winning a free kick in the process.
It should have been 3-0 and job done for Spurs When Walker-Peters delivered a fine cross from the right and Pritchard arrived right on cue, unmarked, but managed to plant his header well over the bar.
Chris Paul eventually went into the book for a late challenge and was withdrawn three minutes later, Zenon Stylianides coming on with Walker-Peters dropping to right-back and Pritchard moving to the right side of the attack.
Walkes lost his man in the box to offer a Reading sub, Harry Cardwell, a good chance, but he headed straight at a relieved Glover.
Pritchard nearly forced a mistake from the Reading keeper when he pressed deep into the penalty area, but Lewis Ward just enough to avoid embarrassment.
There was a bit of upset when the linesman flagged offside directly from a goal kick (Kieran McKenna told the referee he was "embarrassing himself") – in fairness, the referee had a chat with his linesman and ordered a re-take of the kick with minimal fuss.
Spurs brought on their two young debutants, with Oteh going wide right and Oakley-Boothe left, Pritchard and Georgiou the two players withdrawn. Oteh's first action was to drive forward and win a free-kick – an encouraging start.
Spurs' centre-back pairing had been unflappable until Maghoma under-hit a square pass to Walkes, and Walkes pulled at the forward's shoulder as he went to shoot. He got the shot away (which Glover saved) but it didn't stop the referee awarding a penalty and showing Walkes a yellow card (which might have been red).
Glover got two firm hands to Novakovich's penalty and kept it out impressively, but the striker did get a goal minutes later, when he was played in on a sharp counter and impressively found the far corner with a precise low finish.
Tom Glover 7 – cracking penalty save and, although he fumbled a few balls, I like his pro-active approach to goalkeeping.
Chris Paul 4 – not his day today, but I'm sure there are many better performances to come.
Anton Walkes 6 – the benefit of a midfielder playing at the back is the added ability to bring the ball out. Walkes did this well throughout and, aside from missing a few headers, and the penalty incident, he had a decent game.
Christian Maghoma 8 – that one poorly-weighted pass aside, he was excellent.
Joe Muscatt 7 – considering he's a right-footed left-back who only started playing the role recently, he is coming along nicely. Showed a willingness to use his left foot and that keeps defenders guessing.
Joe Pritchard 6 – as ever, a whole-hearted display which lacked subtlety.
Luke Amos 7 – right place, right time. Enough said.
Kyle Walker-Peters 6 – not his best performance, but his obvious threat attracts defenders, leaving space for others.
Cy Goddard 7 – one of the best performances I've seen from him. Intelligent use of the ball, plenty of craft, and grabbed a goal too.
Anthony Georgiou 7 – direct, quick, and a constant thorn in the side for Reading.
Shayon Harrison 6 – took his goal beautifully but he left me wanting more.
Zenon Stylianides – a very assured player in midfield who seems to be good at all the basics, which bodes well.
Tashan Oakley-Boothe – he barely saw the ball so it's impossible to judge him on this, but he's a player who is very highly rated and it was very interesting to see him make the bench today.
Aramide Oteh – as above; the few times he saw the ball he made it count with useful and confident runs forward.
*As mentioned above, in the Premier League's U17 International Tournament played over the last two days, we drew 2-2 with Crystal Palace and beat Juventus 2-1 to finish top of our group. In the other group, Leicester beat Arsenal 3-0 and drew 1-1 with Real Madrid. Today we beat Leicester 3-0 in the final.
Edit: After some detective work, I think the players are: ???, Jaden Brown, Ryan Loft, David Ajiboye, Charlie Owens, Kaziah Sterling, Japhet Tanganga, Armani Daly, Keanen Bennetts, Tom McDermott, Charlie Hayford, ??, ??, Nick Tsaroulla.
George Marsh and Dylan Duncan are two of the players I'm unsure of.
