Or signed for prem teams...) this isn't unexpected occasionally. I hope it doesn't affect those youngsters who were playing negatively Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bald Eagle's Barmy Army Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Apparently a few players in the 18s have Covid or are self isolating which meant even less players to choose from which is why 16s were used. 48 hours, angieram, RoyMac5 and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Sagan Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Today's U23 game versus Leicester has been postponed because of a number of positive COVID cases in the DCFC Academy. https://www.dcfc.co.uk/news/2021/08/under-23s-leicester-city-game-postponed I wonder if that has implications for the first team tomorrow and at the weekend?

angieram Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 It looks like the under 23s game is going ahead tomorrow evening as we have had an email about attending the match at Loughborough (free to season ticket holders.)
