A young team but they also have another home game on Friday night.
Must have a few injuries at CB with Minto-St Aimee involved again and McNamee-Burke being tried in that position (assuming numbers reflect their positions, which they usually do). Elliott’s on the bench as the only natural CB in the squad.
Edit: Rayment-Dawkins is our only other u21 CB with Laq and Ty E-F out on loan, so we don’t have much depth there at the moment.1 -
Wonder when we'll start seeing Josh Edwards play for the U21s, will be useful cover in the coming weeks0

Not sure we will. I'm guessing we'll play a BCD game or two in the extended international break, he can get minutes thereYannTheMann said:Wonder when we'll start seeing Josh Edwards play for the U21s, will be useful cover in the coming weeks1 -
I might be misremembering but I'm sure Nathan said he'd play 2-3 U21 games before coming back to first team involvementfenaddick said:

Notice there is no Tagoe... travelled with the first team...?1

Two games in close order.
I imagine Tahoe and others may well have travelled.
They might possibly be staying up in the midlands, no idea about that.
As for the game today, I would like to see Reuben Reid display his close control but not eventually get crowded out.0 -

They cleverly used the sun in our eyes twice with long balls, scored the second time.2 -

2-1 ball runs quite kindly for a persistent McMillan who is now on a hat trick.2

Poor defending.1 -
Washington-Amoah looks a good prospect0

Our, patched-up?, defence looks terrible0

Looks like another Desmond.1
