I believe United are allowing him to play to help him get a club during the transfer window.

Some of you may remember my son, Chris Backhouse who was the keeper with the U16's last year. Just to let you know, he was released by Man Utd to make way for Ron Robert Zieler. He has been given a two year apprenticeship with Sunderland. He enjoyed his three years with Man Utd and the experience changed him from a Man Utd hater (coming from Leeds) to a supporter of them (again after Leeds).

He looks forward to meeting his ex team mates in the future on the pitch and will never forget his experience as a Man Utd player

Elliott · 16th August 2005, 00:41

the best of luck to him, steve. sunderland is a good place to be for young players

Good luck to your son, Stevie ! Remember that, yes.

golden_blunder · 16th August 2005, 20:51

Good luck to him in his career Stevie
I would say that being at United has probably been an experience he'll never forget. Its not many kids that can say theyve played for Manchester United. He should be proud.

Plechazunga · 17th August 2005, 16:35

Fuck me, just saw the Campbell goal against City at Moss Side

Brilliant pass from Gibson, fantastic finish

HKRed · 18th August 2005, 01:50

Anyone know how Tommy Lee is doing? I know he had a bad injury last season but haven't heard much of him lately. I used to play football with his Dad who was also a decent keeper, so would be nice to see him do well.

Epic · 18th August 2005, 08:58

Swindon manager Andy King is hoping to add young Manchester United pair Tom Heaton and Colin Heath to his squad on loan.

Striker Heath, 21, scored a brace for United's reserves in Monday's match against Bolton while goalkeeper Heaton, 19, kept a clean sheet in a 3-0 win.

Both players trained with the League One side on Wednesday but any deal will be put on hold until Thursday morning, when King expects to speak to United manager Sir Alex Ferguson.

It is unlikely that Ferguson will try and block any deal and after agreeing to loan David Bellion to West Ham he spoke of the importance of boosting young players' match experience.

The Scot told ManUtd.com: "It is a similar case to other young players like Kieran Richardson and David Jones; David Bellion is only 22 and needs match experience.

"This year-long loan to West Ham, where he will be playing Premiership football, will be beneficial to him.

"I am sure he will come back a better player for Manchester United."

Heaton and Heath were both regulars in United's Premiership Reserve League North winning side of last season, with the duo making 18 appearances apiece

Plechazunga · 18th August 2005, 10:47

I don't really understand why we've kept Heath

He has been alot on the bench for the reserves this preseason. With Heaton going on a loan, if Swindon can afford him, there is a change for Lee to get games.

We have a contract with him for this season.

Plechazunga · 18th August 2005, 12:11

Sure...but we could still sell him

He's a decent player, but isn't going to make it. Why hold him back?

zieler wasn´t really tested, did well, derbyshire is a schoolboy and international so he is promising. Cathcart is big and chester wasn´t long on. To early to say to much about them.

United's Under 18's beat Tottenham Hotspurs 2-1 away.

Campbell and Gibson (pen) scored the goals in the second half.

Not sure about the exact team line-up but Brandy started up front with Campbell. And throughout most of the match caused havoc to Tottenham's defence.
