Clubs rarely play at their own grounds so have to liaise with the owners (eg Loughborough) for when they're free. The U23 games are played on all manner of different days for no obvious reason (it's not like there's a TV schedule to accommodate). The League will surely simply say to "play the game week commencing whatever". I really don't think they mandate date and time for this. That's down to the clubs to agree. Here are this week's games: I'm sure we could have played this game tomorrow or Monday had we wanted, like the other teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jram Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 5 hours ago, Carl Sagan said: I'm sure earlier in the season Rooney talked about using U23 games to keep some of his non-playing first team squad fit. But agree it's not looking that way right now. He’s said a few times recently that he’s not playing the likes of Cashin/ Thompson in U23 games as he can’t risk them getting injured because he may need them in the first team he described it as “catch 22” as they’re then not getting match sharpness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich84 Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I thought the players in the 1st team squad are in a different covid 'bubble' to the rest of the kids? If so then I assume they can't easily move between the groups anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravabeerbelly Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Obviously most will be watching the first team game at 8pm but for those interested there is a free stream of the 23s game on you tube at 6.45 (7pm kick off) RoyMac5, Indyram and angieram 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rampant Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 I was at the u23's game tonight and it was a tough watch tbh. Keeper Fowkes was impressive, with one save made when the ball was seemingly already past him. Given the concerns around Roos and Allsop he might not be too far away from a call up to the first team squad. Louis Thompson was a bit disappointing, especially his delivery from set pieces. You can see he has something there to work with though. Isaac Hutchinson seemed to have the wrong studs in. Again, looks to have a touch of class about him but, as with Thompson, needs to be running the show at this level. Of the others, I'll be kind to new boy Reece Hutchinson and suggest he'll improve with a run of games. He really struggled though in truth, as did Solomon at CB. Bardell was decent enough at right back but not much happened for Agathise. I'm loathe to criticise young lads giving their best but Cybulski up top is never going to have a career in league football.

We weren't dominant all half at all but had spells after they scored early (5 minutes in). I assumed we'd fell apart and been slaughtered, but I see it ended 1-0. angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
