They are down to 10 at the start of the second half.

Worth noting this is the final game of the season for us and we're pretty much guaranteed 3rd. 2nd is possible but it needs Spurs to either drop points at home to West Brom (currently 4-2) or for us to win by at least 2 more than they do.

And now palace have had a red card (well 2nd yellow).

[Somniloquism]

More then 2. We need to score 5 more if they win.

[Somniloquism]

2-1 with about 5 mins to throw the win...

Luckily it will make no difference as Spurs have won 5-2.

[cdbearsfan]

We won! Get them all in the first team next time we play Palace.

Reading U18s 2 Aston Villa U18s 7 (seven).

Two each for Markie Meade, Jahmi Kellyman and Jack McGrath, the other for Joshua Blake.

Any relation to the Kellyman we sold to Chelsea?

[Percy McCarthy]

Meade finished the season with 21 goals & 6 assists. Jack McGrath 11 goals, 12 assists.

Yes, they're brothers.

Meade finished the season with 21 goals & 6 assists. Jack McGrath 11 goals, 12 assists.

and as a whole we finished with 85 goals in 28 games. Some of the attacking talent we have at that level is very impressive, those 2 top of the pile.

Really impressive

[Dante Lavelli]

So less trophies than last season but potentially better individuals may have emerged? Is that fair, or was last years’ crop exceptionally good?

[dcdavecollett]

A lot of last season's U-18 record-breakers went into the U-21s this time round.

They had a much-improved record this year which I assume is a reflection of the impact the youngsters have had.

One of them, Boreland, played a lot of football at Swindon in the season just closed.

and Rowe has been very good in France and Broggio has been excellent recently for Falkirk.
