Reasonably strong, I think, short of lacing it with a few first squad players who are U21, Baleba or Enciso for exmple (or even a few who are over 21 I think we're allowed three or four over age players if we want).
McConville and Atom are injured, I think.

Atom left in the summer I think, or his social media seems to suggest he was let go at least.

Well, that's as piss-poor a 45 minutes I've seen from an Albion U-21 side in many a long year.

You what?

He's out with injury - he had surgery six days ago.

Pretty much (out of fit players).

The only one missing is Jamie Mullins.

Wtf is going on with the lads defence tonight?

I’m glad our summer spending means we won’t be calling on half this lot again this season to cover injuries from the bench in the first team.

Ok grossly unfair but this is one hell of an ‘off night’ isn’t it?

It's literally men against boys, they are in this competition to make up the numbers. It's no biggy.

Indeed - 2 of our goals have been scored by a 15 year old...!

Playing first team players in the EFL trophy would be the most embarrassing, tinpot thing imaginable.

It would be like when Homer won the “design a future power plant” competition in The Simpsons.

Quite a game in the end! Oh well, once again we have safely manoeuvred ourselves out of a cup competition. OK, mathematically we could still scrape through - anyone seriously think we won't 'concentrate on the league'?

No it wouldn't. Winning it, on the other hand, would be brilliant.

You do realise that the Brighton & Hove Albion first team is not participating in this cup at all? Not invited, not welcome.

Yes, I do.................and I don't give a flying f cuk if no-one else wants us in it. I want to win this one day. TBH, I'd like to win any trophy, to display alongside the Community Shield.
