Lost 3-2 today, Troy Perrett scored though.Quote:

Looked a weakened side from what I saw so not a bad result in fairnessQuote:

I don't think it's been mentioned in this thread before, but the club website is saying that we are playing West Brom at Leckwith in the next stage of the under 21 Premier League Cup at Leckwith on Friday 7 March, kick off at 7 pm.
Down 0 - 1 at HT.Quote:

We needed a full team out today but there were a few missing, I assume Jac Thomas and Dan Ola are injured while Mannie Barton was with the Welsh u-19 squad this week and Rob Tanciewicz was with the u-16s (he's not 16 till June).Quote:

The pathway is there between the age groups and progress has been made into creating a pathway into the first team too. It may be a false dawn, of course, but there are some encouraging signs.
Not sure much can be gleaned from the under 21 team for this afternoon’s match at Bristol City, but I see both of the usual centrebacks are missing.

No Lawlor or Cook could indicate at least 1 in the squad for tonight?Quote:

Wouldn't be surprised to see one or both involved.Quote:

Will this be streaming anywhere? Slow day at the office today.
Doesn’t look like. It’s rare for one of our under 21 away matches to be streamed, but I can remember at least one of them being in the past, so I was hopeful it would be - can’t find anything to that effect though.Quote:

Well, it’s more promising than anything I could find. We’ll soon find out, but Ive just noticed there’s only two watching at the moment - me and you!Quote:

Double post.
Highlights of the under-21s game with Bristol City here. Simic takes his goal well (at 3.40) after good work by Trey George, who then misses a late chance to win it. Josh Beecher looked lively at left back and Simic seemed to be putting a shift in up front.

nice finish again from Simic, I thought he was a bit languid in the first game, but much less so in these highlightsQuote:

Some 'lively' comments about Simic staying with the u21s (not off to Villa Park) and the seven other u21s who are missing this afternoon - and maybe in the FA Cup squad: Armstrong, Lawlor, Giles, Mafico, Jefferies, Nyakuhwa and Pearce.Quote:

Just like they did on Tuesday, the under 21s concede from a corner in the first ten minutes - 1-0 to Coventry.
