Lost 2-1. A bit disappointing, but Charlton had a number of first team players, so no disgrace.

Bugger.  Was kind of hoping for a trip to Wembley, it'd be bloody hilarious if we had more supporters go to watch the Villa babbies than Small Heath did for their first team.

Seems like we dominated in the second half but could not get the break-through.

Annoying but we'll just have to wait till April 23rd and May 14th.

Is that Ben Watson who won the FA Cup with Wigan and Irish international Harry Arter? Playing against seasoned pros will have been a really useful experience for our babbies.

I'm so proud of the boys they played well but Charlton had experience in Ben Watson, Harry Arter and Chris Gunter we can be proud of the boys throughout these EFL Trophy games.

Attendance: 1,283 (356 from Aston Villa)

second half was poorer from both sides. highlight was some charlton fans getting kicked out!

Hopefully these games will help them in the FA Youth cup.

Not putting too much money on seeing Zych, Feeney or Ealing in the first team...


You do know Zych is 17 and Feeney only turned 16 in May.

Yeah, you're right, bit harsh, and Charlton were definitely pushing their overage allowance as hard as they could. All of ours were kids, with only a smattering of 1st team experience among them.
