No worries, I should've explained it, first year scholars (16-17 year olds), second year scholars (17-18 year olds), u16s and younger are allowed to play in U18s fixtures. Idem is a first year professional hence he is too old to play for the youth team but occasionally it happens 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted January 16, 2018 Moderator Share Posted January 16, 2018 it looks like the heath are going through to the next round, which means a win against Bury means we'd get them at Villa Park if we win today's rearranged game. No pressure boys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our twitter has updates on the U23 match, where we are 2-0 up thorugh Green and O'Hare, but hasn't even acknowledged the other game.
