A 2-1 defeat at Blackburn for the DVP team tonight, Rhys Abbruzzese with our late goal. Sounded like one-way traffic but we had a young side out again - Byrne, Coxe, Abbruzzese, Veale, Blaise, Bodenham, Waite, Weymans, Harris, Bird, Meite.

So far the Under 23s (in reality, something like an Under 20 team lately) aren't doing that bad, since the change of focus to younger players, they've tended to do well at home and lose away.
It's tougher for the Under 18s, they had that good win over QPR a fortnight ago, but have suffered two more heavy defeats since then (3-0 at Millwall and 6-0 at Huddersfield on Saturday) - they've now suffered defeats by 7-0, two 6-0s, a 5-0, a 4-0 and a 3-0 in their last nine matches. They have managed two wins and a draw in the other three games, so they aren't getting stuffed every week, but it must be tough being beaten by scores like that two games out of every three.
The Under 16s also let in five at Huddersfield on Saturday, but they recovered from being a couple of goals down at one time to grab a draw with the last kick of the game!
