[Albion] Middlesbrough u17s vs Brighton u17s U17 Premier League Cup Final

[AZ Gull]

Snapping up talent by raiding Brighton. Somewhat difficult to do as we have a Cat 1 academy, no raiding allowed. They write this crap as if Utd can just come and get whoever they want. They can **** off

I don't believe there is anything in the EPPP rules preventing a Cat 1 academy club signing a player from another Cat 1 academy. Moran has a contract with Albion that obviously gives us a degree of control but there is nothing about Cat 1 status itself that gives us particular protection.

Everitt on for Emmerson (who unsurprisingly wasn't very impressed)

 

[Hugo Rune]

Our number 8, absolute class, wins everything and tidy on the ball. Reminds me of Emmanuel Petit with his locks!

Same club still but I had him down as a young Ray Parlour.

 

[ifightbears]

Peupion on for Qureshi (I think)

 

[Pavilionaire]

Two Boro players wiped each other out and that's best part of 3 mins stoppage there.

 

[Uter]

Quite a few stoppages this half. Should be a lot of added minutes.

seems hardly fair that we couldn't play on as we were in possession.

No there isn’t but they can’t raid us.

 

[Uter]

2-0!!

[Green Cross Code Man]

Very impressed by these youngsters. Wonderful to watch.

Lovely 2nd goal

 

[MJsGhost]

Bloody typical - I got up from my desk to let the dog out into the garden and missed the goal!

Theres that strikers arrogance/ confidence coming through for Ifill, was a wonderful ball down the channel by Sturge.

You know on youtube you can just drag the 'dot' back to whenever you want and watch it ? (79 mins)

 

[Uter]

Another stoppage. Could easily be 6 or 7 minutes added on, or possibly more.

I've watched the second half and we've been a class above. For the first 10 minutes Boro hardly touched the ball.

Ha ha, I actually didn't think about trying that because it's a live stream!

In my defence, I've not really slept for 2 weeks as there's a newborn in the house.

Thank you!

Lovely goal (confident finish) and very much game over
