    Great news about the reserve fixtures. A higher standard will surely benefit the young boys.
    Does anyone know if the reserve fixtures are part of the season ticket?

    No decision yet as to where the home games will be played but I can't see the big clubs allowing their players to play on sub standard pitches - so what options do we have for venues?

    The Gnoll
    Port Talbot
    Parc y Scarlets
    Stebonheath?

    scarlets would be fantastic and some will produce bumper crowds, season tickets are not valid, you have to pay on the day..<ok>

    Thanks alswan.

    How well do you think we'll do in the reserve league? Is it usually a mirror of the Premier League?

    I'd imagine teams like Arsenal and Manchester United have the stronger teams given to their academies. Aston Villa too maybe?

    Here is a link to some info from last season on Wiki.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010–11_Premier_Reserve_League

    Looks like the format has been changed if we're playing that many different teams?
