Rory Wilson came on five minutes from the end of Scotland U-21s' win away to their Northern Irish counterparts. He's only sixteen. 🙂

Did he score?

A 16 year old playing for the Under 21s...blimey, are there many other examples of that?

Pelé was just 17 when he played and scored 2 in a World Cup Final, which some might consider even more impressive than playing for Scotland's U-21s. ;)

Does anyone know why drawn matches in the EFL trophy are going to penalties? I thought the first round was arranged as groups of four, so surely in that situation a draw is a draw...?

Three points for a win in ninety minutes, two for a win on penalties, one for a defeat on penalties, zero for a defeat. Same system as Scottish League Cup Group Stage.

Our Academy side is 4-1 down at half time to the Baggies and we have had our goalie sent off.

I thought we'd signed all their players?

Lost 2-6

No worries, though, we'll just do what we usually do with Albion, and if any of their players were really promising, we'll take them off them.

Off to see the U21's at Pompey. Wonder if Archer will get a run out?
