Nottingham Forest hammered Wigan 9-1 tonight. Looks like the lads could have a game on their hands in the 5th round of the FA Youth Cup. I hear the match may have been scheduled for Wednesday 25 Jan at St Mary's 7:00PM. If that's true Shaw and Chambers should be available before thy go off to international duty for England U17s. Let's make sure they get a good crowd. It definitely makes a difference in my humble opinion.
Just checked academy table (they are very slow to update this) and we are now 2nd behind Fulham by 1 point and Fulham are 1 goal better in GD. We beat Fulham a few weeks ago, so the team are looking good.
And Saints U18 have only lost 3 games all season. Recent form is 7 from 7. Beat Norwich 2-0 yesterday. That makes it 23 goals for and 1 in reply. Come and support the future of Saints on Wednesday.
See I would go, but living in Hythe I wouldn't be able to get the ferry back after the match so kind of rules it out for me but I would love to be there
I'm stewarding this game so you might stand a better chance of seeing me because of the smaller crowd
