And here’s the U21 lineup. Posted on this thread to see who is involved and there are a couple of names missing who could feature tonight.
Fair few young uns in there again. Interesting to see if Robbo and Salech form a front 2 or whether he plays off the wing... Good to see Ng back.
A few more changes than I was expecting. Hope Lawlor doesn't get burnt out. Playing a lot of games for a 19 year old. I'd have kept Willock in there as well. Ahhh. And there's Luey Giles. Was wondering where he'd been hiding.
Just thinking. Where does that leave Alnwick? A message to him from BBM? 7 of the starters and 6 of the bench came through the ranks.
All told we have now used 11 players who came up through our ranks. Only Chambers and Willock from the senior group are now playing. Pretty damn impressive. In fact one of their subs, Bakare, used to captain our under 23's.
BBM said we'd like him. A pity his first outing ended the way it did. We seem to be blessed with young central midfielders.
