    It's pot luck what I find, it's generally just down to the highlights packages that the opposition clubs put together.

    Surprised Clark hasn't been in or around the squad for the League Cup games, he seems to be performing well. Wonder how many of the U21's will be going out on loan this season.

    North Ferriby have just announced that free entry for season ticket holders to U21 games has been reinstated.

    Good move.

    Good news. Recko they might start getting a decent crowd down there. Monday night playing Millwall.
    It'd be good if they could start using the KC for games, can they?

    Good news, will be good to see more there, the U21 are doing well so far, more support will only help them.

    I'm playing football down there on Monday so I'll get in for free anyway. Good to know for the future though. Cheers Ferriby/City/football in general.

    As a Cat 2 academy we have to play a certain amount of games at the KC, I believe it's three and I think the plan is for them to be played immediately after first team games.

    So it wasn't the fault of the Allams? Just in the interest of fairness.

    Apparently, the decision to reverse it was Ehab's, so presumably he was also responsible for implementing it in the first place.

    Just another downer on the fans by Allam. We should be used to it now and people still question me as to why I didn't renew!

    Cheers. The post said North Ferriby had announced the change so it was a fair assumption it was their decision not Ehab's to impose the change and then reverse it.

    As its been free for years and nobody goes hardly...

    I dont mind chucking in a 3 or 4 quid to see them. I thought it was going to help Ferriby which would be a good idea if we could get a few hundred there

    We're playing well and at a higher level, so there was a decent chance of getting the numbers up a bit, but quite a few stopped going on principal, as a result of the free entry being withdrawn.

    It's obviously not a lot of money, it was largely symbolic, but it's more important to get people there, than the few quid the gate money raised. If they get more there, then they'll make it up on pies and pints anyway, an arrangement that North Ferriby were always happy with in the past.

    I may go down on Monday as a cheap alternative to watching City or NFU. I must remember it's a 7pm KO.

    I'll be damned if I'm paying KC prices but may go to the odd £12 NFU game.

    Can the U21 side gain promotion or do you have to be Cat 1 to play in the higher division?

    I think there is a league higher than this. A lot of the football league have cat 2 academies so I'm guessing you can get promoted.

    There's 2 divisions - north and south - we play all the north teams and some of the south teams
    There's no promotion and relegation based on results although there is an end of season play-off between top north and top south team
