First games last night. Chelsea 0 Man City 0 West Ham 3 Reading 1 Attendance at the former was over 3000! Wonder of the Saints U21 matches v Man U, Spurs and The Toon @St Mary's draw the crowds in. Entrance last night was £3 and £1 at both games. Could be a league policy? Saints playing Sunderland at Staplewood on Monday. U16 and U18 about to kick off up at Sunderland today. Exciting times for the club at all levels.
The u18s have done well for years playing sides like Chelsea and Arsenal, so they should be okay in this new league system. Must be an exciting time for all the youngsters.
Ryan Seager bagged three. http://www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/sunderland-u18s-3-southampton-u18s-4-1-4848356
How did the Under 21's get on today? Cannot find any info on them. The OS is useless in this respect.
Looked on the Sunderland site and it says the game is on Monday, that might explain the lack of reports!
They don't mention the U16's much, probably because of rules about reporting about "children" as they technically are.
