Lakenheath Old Boys

We are all former students at Lakenheath High School and other public schools in East Anglia. We were in school in the 70s and 80s and drank deeply from the well of British culture of those decades - the pints, the telly, and of course the footie!

Jermaine Jones Joins the US Camp!

Great news for the U.S. national team. Shalke schemer Jermaine Jones has been cleared by FIFA to play for the U.S. He'll now likely join the U.S. World Cup squad for SA 2010 when he returns to fitness after a shin injury that's kept him out of Bundesliga action so far this season. Read more here:

It is good news. He's disciplined in a way that MBradley is not and could really add to the defensive midfield. I think he might kick in with a goal at set pieces.

We're still in the hole however with the loss of Charlie Davies.

This is even better news in light of the latest on Gooch who's now not scheduled to return to full training until April, and Demerit whose eye injury is taking longer than first anticipated to heal.

This appears to stress reliance on Boca (...shudder) and lay our hopes on a dwindling number of new guys, Chad Marshall top of the list.
