Crawley is at Horsham ground.

Orient at Whitbread Sports Ground.

Peterborough at Nene Park Academy.

(assuming no moves to main ground for any reason).

Whaaaat?

I was hoping to knock off 3  new away grounds.

Bugger.

I think these grounds are where the respective clubs play their Academy games.

In last season's EFL Trophy Posh played at London Road and Orient at Broadfield Stadium.

Crawley don't seem to have entered the competition.

You'd imagine they'd all want to play at home to maximise home advantage - after all, it is their first team we"ll be playing.

2 of those sides beat our 1st team fairly recently.

I still think of 1957 as recent.

There's no way either of those games actually happened. Zero recollection.

The latest intake of scholars to join the U18s. https://www.heroesandvillains.info/forumv3/index.php?topic=66003.30

Jahmi Kellyman, Omari's younger brother is one of them. I wasn't aware that he was at the club.

We'll have to see if there's any correlation between wearing a flash watch and/or trainers with a suit, and making it.

I'm guessing linking back to this thread wasn't the intention there.

Markie Meade's tux made me smile, as did the fact that Harry Pinnell looks like he's just signed for KPMG.
