Tonight’s team:

[BillyStubbsTears]

Anderson playing? Shit, dies that mean this match doesn't count for his ban and he's missing another league match?

Yes

[DRFC_TID_93]

Blayneys a centre back right? So back 3 or 5 tonight by the looks of it?

I posted about this on another thread BST.
I have always said that I don’t reckon this competition is officially classed as a first team fixture. (Since the U21 teams were allowed into it).
The fact that Anderson is playing tonight further convinces me that I am right.

Playing three at back and no Sadlier there will posters pulling teeth about tactics

[dknward2]

3 at back with brad and Danny pushing on down the wings with Ben and AJ in midfield Thomas May and Taylor as the front 3.

Worth a try but still unsure about Daniels expecting at least another penalty given away for him

0:1

[dknward2]

All Leicester so far from the commentary

[eastender]

Leicester  pressing well , not giving us any time and space on the ball.

Anyone of note,that we might know in the Leicester team ?

George Thomas, full Welsh international

[eastender]

We're starting to settle down and get a foothold in the game now.

[dknward2]

Sounds like we just can't get going really need to step up if we want anything

George Thomas, full Welsh international

Not made even one first team appearance for Leicester though Dutch.
Spent last season on loan at Scunny.
Not really someone of note mate.

Thanks Dutch Uncle. I was wondering because most of the U21 teams in this competition use a few more established players.

True. But as a (very) old Welsh International myself (not football of course) I just have to point these things out   

[DearneValleyRover]

We are very reactive rather than having a plan. Very worrying as I feel that’s the general style of play at present

I guessed it might have been National pride mate. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🐋🐋🐋

Slow starts have become a feature of our recent matches.
We often don’t look good until the second half in too many games.

They also have George Hirst, son of David Hirst, and he has 7 goals in 13 appearances for England U-20s

[eastender]

 We Just had one scrambled off the line from a corner.

Teams have worked us out mate. Are we playing out from the back all the time?

[BillyStubbsTears]

Is Leicester's scorer REALLY called Admiral Muskwee? Sounds like a character off Captain Pugwash.

Lol.   We do have Madjer Gomes though.
And we did have Sarge and the corporal in the past.
