AFC Wimbledon Away in Checkatrade Trophy

[Deleted member 2719]

It is a benefit to the development of young players. How is that a bad thing? Many of those young players won't make it at the top level and the lower league clubs will be able to pick up better, more developed young players.
Also, it could be an incentive for clubs to invest in youth facilities if any category one youth club could enter.

Exactly this.

Wrote a short blog about the demise of the Whole Game Solution and a bit about the much loved Checkatrade Trophy http://sloughtownsoapbox.blogspot.co.uk/2016/11/no-stomach-for-whole-game-solution.html

I doubt Pocognoli will be risked now, but expect runouts for Goldson, Hunemeier, Towell, LuaLua and Maenpaa on Tuesday.

Tonight's the night.

Towell and LuaLua are bound to feature. Perhaps Maenpaa, March and Goldson.

But is Elvis now so out of favour he'll miss out ?

I'm really looking forward to it. Club bar, not worrying if we win, close to home. Sounds like a pleasant night out!

AFC Wimbledon V Brighton & Hove Albion U21s 2nd round checkatrade trophy 19.45 K.O

Anybody going to the kingsmeadow tonight to watch the lads ? been offered a lift so rude not to pop along and count the crowd , be interesting to see if Solly gets a run out tonight or the boss thinks his time is done in the reserves , Towell will probably play i would imagine , seen a few games recently and we really do play some lovely stuff .

Norwich youngster Timm Klose named in their squad for tonight.

In the absence of a Peacehaven match, Burgess Hill v Whitehawk seems a better option, but thinking about it so does the repeat of Benidorm on ITV4

Really want to go but I am being dragged to bloody winter wonderipoff tonight.

The only thing I will be wondering is how they can get away with charging a tenner for an average hot dog...

Signs of life on Dons Player although just funky music.

Surprised to see that both Murray and Baldock are starting. Guess the carrot of a Wembley final is a significant pull.

Thats a relief, I thought they had the PA speakers too close to the mic!

Disco hits of the 70s it would seem.

This will almost certainly be more entertaining than the game....
