Rules state a certain amount of games have to played at the main first team stadium

I don’t remember any U23 games being played at Ricoh let alone 5

I don’t remember any U23 games being played at Ricoh let alone 5

There's been plenty?

 

[bawtryneal]

JCH certainly out of favour
Means he will not be involved tomorrow

We might see JJ in the first team squad for the home game against Rochdale

 

[hamil99]

Anyone there for updates?

1 nil down in under a minute

1 down Wells

 

[Nick]

Always going to struggle against Wells and Vydra up front.

They would more than likely hammer our first team.

 

[Nick]

Wasn't Vydra top scorer in the championship last season?

 

[Winny the Bish]

Crazy that Burnley spent £5million on Wells a year ago and he's going to play more for the U23s this year than the first team.

Any updates ? How’s Our front 3 playing ?

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

2-0 down now according to twitter

At the game
Their front two a bit too powerful for our young defenders but they are sticking at it
Sam McCallum looks a real talent for a 17 year old. Calm on the ball and doesn't give it away much
JJ had a few nice touches but unsurprisingly is blowing hard and was less involved as the game went on
HT now won't be surprised if that's it for Jones today. No sense taking chances

McCallum looked good against Nuneaton

Is Camwell the left sided centre half?

Yes playing in a back 3
Billy Stedman on for JJ at HT
JJ was rinsed out
Reece Ford just pulled one back
JCH up top on his own finding it hard going

Same as the first team? Isolated and running about not being able to do much?

Lovely run by Allasani and nice header from JCH

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

2-2

 

[better days]

Our lads look younger and slighter but playing some nice stuff
Burnley look to have a lot more experience

 

[Corrado]

Feel bad for putting it on but got a tenner on both teams over 1.5 goals and Burnley to win first half/full time. £130 returns

 

[better days]

Header?

Yes

 

[better days]

All City now
Keeper just made smart saves from a Camwell volley and then pushed one round the post when JCH was clear on goal

 

[better days]

Agai off
Westbrooke running the game and Stedman doing well

 

[better days]

Burnley hit post from nice free kick
Hickman just had cross shot from lovely pass from McCullum on the opposite wing

 

[vow]

Wrap JJ up in cotton wool for now!

 

[better days]

He's sitting in the stand talking to kids
No reaction but can't run flat out yet

 

[Corrado]

3-2 Allassani

 

[Nick]

3-2 Allassani

Decent goal?

 

[better days]

Allasani harried a defender and won it to go clean through and finish well
He's been great second half
McCullum off carrying a knock

 

[ccfcricoh]

Sounds like a good game from the Twitter commentary!

Did Burnley make mass subs at half time? They seem to have imploded!

 

[Bugsy]

Great to come back from 2 goals down....PUSB

Fantastic run by Hickman held off big defender on the right and crossed to Allasani who finished well
