So pleased Ralfie Hand at last could play 73 minutes against Wolves and score a goal from midfield. Since joing from Kenetic academy, the Dartford lad has had a tough time with different injuries but hopefully at 17 he can kick on and step up to the level required.
Half time: Charlton 5-0 Liverpool. Hand scored the 5th.
I've no idea about the strength of the team that Liverpool have sent down (need to see a team sheet), but you can only play/beat what's in front of you.
5 - 0 is a great scoreline regardless of who you are playing but against a cat 1 academy side...
Of course. I've just seen a team sheet on twitter and there are only 2 or 3 omissions from their normal league team. This is a proper stuffing of a cat 1 team.
Just watched 20 minutes of Forest v West Ham U21 & U19 (I think). Playing on adjacent pitches @ St George’s. Nothing to write home about. Very dull, both sides.

From the twitter feed sounded like we were well in it and had a few chances.
EDIT: Third goal might have been scored by Patrick Casey.
EDIT - Scorers: Kai Enslin (3), Patrick Casey (2)
5 wins with 21 goals.
1 defeat v Burnley.
Amazing start for the U18's. Seems like another talented bunch.
Casey 7 goals.
Enslin 4 goals
Hand 2 goals
Is Casey going to be another +40goal scorer like Kanu..?
Thanks for that info.

The U17s played their first U17 Premier League Cup group game on 13/9. They won 3-1 at Brighton.
Their remaining group games are against Southampton and Crystal Palace, who drew 2-2 in the other game.
Casey has 9 goals, Huke has 2.
