On the evidence so far, Portsmouth's U-18s are better than Albion's U-18s

It's a massacre.

 

[Bry Nylon]

I'm confused. Is 'Under 18' the name of the team or their best result this season?

Albion lots of possession and lots of passing. Game so far is just taking chances in front of goal.

My numbers from memory were out. Albion numbers.

Bognor miss a chance putting it wide. We need a goal

1-4 Roberts

You see this is what happens when you don’t have Hughton tactics

 

[AZ Gull]

Albion's goalkeeper tonight is Billy Collings, who makes his.......4th appearance of the season (2 of the other 3 appearances were also in the SSC, his lone other appearance being against Peterborough in the Checkatrade Trophy). He hasn't been injured because he has been the almost-permanent substitute goalkeeper for the U-23s (20 bench appearances).

It is difficult to understand why Albion ever took up the option on his contract in the summer. He is in his 3rd year as a professional (next season he will be too old to qualify as an U-21 player). He joined the Albion from Reading in January 2017 and signed an extension for 2017-18 (when he made only 3 appearances in PL2, and 7 appearances altogether).

Why give a contract to a goalkeeper for two years, and play him in what amounts to 4 "competitive" appearances at U-23 level in that time?

What am I missing?

So who do we think will break through into the first team next season then?
