It was played at the Alan Higgs on Tuesday and we lost. 0:2.

All good - "Covsupport News Service" on Facebook confirmed it.


Are our youth teams just completely shit now?

Bottom of the U18 League. Near the bottom of the U21 league.

After the 6-0 loss to Watford, this was mildly better, but Huddersfield U21s looked largely a level above.

I think the core of the U21s are out on loan (and it's a small squad anyway), and although this game only featured one trialist, there's been zero consistency in personnel with a lot of trialists getting a run out.

A lot of the U18s have featured for the U21s and this may have affected the U18s team as well.

Yeah looks like a different (and welcome) approach this season. Players like Yearn could be dossing it around in our u21s league but he's gone out on loan and Chesham are on fire, aiming for promotion. He's got something like 6 goals and 5 assists too (guesstimate).

Perry at Rochdale in an epic title battle that will go down to the wire. He'll learn so much from that.

Moore starting every game for Solihull etc.

Will they make it? I doubt it now we are practically prem but with Perry and Moore they've probably secured themselves league 1 loans next season whilst with us and if they nail that, who knows.

But yeah, without waffling we've sent all our better u21s and below out (Mantle at 18 years old playing loads of games at nat south level is really good) so our results have sufferee
