Wood didn't score (or start regularly) in the 6th tier a month ago, and turns 21 during the summer, so at this stage it is probably more about him finding his level so that he can move on in the summer

From the sound of it that's the case for most of these players.

Well there's nobody else we can put in midfield next season so he'll be starting every week.

Montgomery's goal for Chorley yesterday, it should hopefully play from the right part

Rovers website for some reason stating its his first senior goal, which is untrue.  He scored for Marine earlier in the season

Good lord we're in trouble next year when most of these lads will be starting / filling out the bench at Ewood. 

I'm glad Batty has got regular minutes (he desperately needed it) and Duru seems to have shone - but beyond that, bloody hell. We've clearly not got anyone close in the Academy that can come in next year and help us out.

I always thought he looked neat and tidy with the right amount of aggression - but he needed regular minutes (which he wasn't getting here).

For Bristol Rovers and Tranmere not to play him though - bloody hell.

Atcheson (18) & Litherland (19)  look to me to be capable of becoming Championship standard (at least) centre backs.  I expect one of them to be in the first team squad next year as 4th/5th choice, and the other to get a League 2 loan.

The academy players with the most potential are probably Tyjon, Dunn & Higgins, who are still 16 (although Tyjon turned 17 a week ago) so too early for them to be loaned out.  Obviously the first 2 of them have only 1 year left on their current scholarship deals, and the other has yet to even sign a scholarship deal as things currently stand

As well as the 2 full backs that you have mentioned, Powell (19)  also looks like a decent attacking left back.  Others that we may see in the next couple of years are England U18 keeper Nick Michalski, & young midfielders James Edmondson (19), & Harley O'Grady-Macken (20)

That's pretty much how I see it too - which again points to the fact there's no clear immediate support coming from the Academy next year.
