Development Squad Fixtures - 2014/15

I hadn't appreciated until listening to Jason Euell's interview on Player just now that the Development League is being expanded this year to include northern teams. The result will be an increase in the number and regularity of competitive fixtures, which can only be a good thing for our youngsters. It is certainly better than having to scratch around for local friendlies, where the quality of the opposition can be vary variable.

The new fixtures for 2014/15 have not yet been posted on the Official Site but there will certainly be many more opportunities to get along to Sparrow's Lane this season to watch the team.

  • Includes four games at the Valley

    This season, league rules state that four league games must be played at the home ground of each respective club, and The Valley will play host to the visit of Sheffield United on Monday, October 13th (1pm), Cardiff City on Monday, November 10th (1pm), Crewe Alexandra on Monday, March 16th (2pm) and the final game of the season against Brentford on Tuesday, April 14th (2pm).
  • Anyone know why our away games at club stadiums are predominantely evening kick off's waychable for people with 9-5's, while all the valley games (and every u21 home game for that matter) are kicking of at either 1pm or 2pm week days?
  • How the hell can this be the Premier Division SOUTH when its got Leeds...Sheff Utd... Barnsley... Huddersfield Town in it - This sounds like the U21 Leagues are slowly gonna go the same way that the Reserve Leagues went (i.e. started off local shortening travel times for the kids before including Northern teams in random Divisions)

    Or have Celtic and Rangers finally managed to get into the Premier League (Just not the actual Division they want to be in?)
  • This season teams will play other teams from their league (north or south) twice, once home and once away.
    They will also play each team from the other league once.
