All our decent prospects are either out on loan or warming the first team bench all bloody game.

It really was men against boys. However we played some lovely football at times. Confident on the ball and not afraid to play in tight areas. It was a very young team so the result was always going to be one sided.

I suppose the consequence of player pathways in other teams is hurting our own academy teams as we are too young and weak to compete.  I guess we have to look at the bigger picture but problem is I can’t see it

Just bought two tickets for Crawley. Had to phone in and be kept waiting on hold through several geological eras as there doesn't seem to be an option to buy tickets for this one on the website or the app. Have emailed the club pointing this out

Ah, they're cunningly hidden away in the section marked 'away tickets for men's first team'...

Off to Crawley in a few minutes. Not expecting much but nice to be able to get to a game!

Anyone else here at The Broadfield? We're playing some nice stuff but they are quicker to capitalise on mistakes than we are

I'd say they've been watching the first team too much.

But the kids have scored as well as conceded.

I would agree with Martyn. You can see the skill but they are a bit naive in giving it away. Where are you seats or standing?
