useless Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 U14s beat Albion 5-3 in the Albert Phelan yesterday, they won their first game 3-2 against Wolves a couple of weeks ago. FA Youth Cup draw must be soon, was November 16th last year, hopefully we get a good draw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Not sure how good or bad of a draw that is, Brentford's U18s were formed at the start of this season and compete in the South East Youth Alliance League against other Category four Status academies, they're bottom of their table below the likes of Sutton United, Cambridge, Stevenage and others. Based on that seems a very winnable game, Burton Albion who we beat 9-0 a couple of seasons ago are a Category Status Four team and at the time were doing better than Brentford are doing now, so it's not a great level relatively speaking. But the difficulty of the game might depend on how many players Brentford can use from their B team, when they played our U21s recently I think most of those if not all of them were too old for the FA Youth Cup. If we're playing a team made up largely of players from their U18s that compete in the Youth Alliance League then we should be favorites but of course can't take anything for granted. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 U18 league games never streamed, but the FA Youth Cup game at home to Brentford will be shown on VillaTV, and probably played at Villa Park. I imagine line-up for that will be quite different from the team that played today, I'd expect the likes of Smith, Feeney, Triston Rowe, Rory Wilson, Kadan Young, Omari Kellyman, and maybe others if available to come in.

OutByEaster? Posted November 19, 2022 Moderator Share Posted November 19, 2022 Yep, I have a feeling that the line up for that one could end up looking more like our U21 team today than our U18 team today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
messi11 Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Oh no we've lost Tristan Rowe to Chelsea! What's the point of having an academy if we lose our best players. We are a Chelsea and Man city feeder club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
