BBC Sussex not doing a commentary tonight.

Despite the critics of the introduction of U23 teams to the competition, this really is a fantastic experience for our youngsters - a competitive fixture against a strong professional side. Nowhere else would they get an experience like that as a team.

Apart from the League Cup matches that they've already played against Colchester and Oxford.

Sounds like there is only about 100 fans there.

Apart from the fact, they haven't. This team is a lot weaker than the cup teams.

Get away with you.... 99 people make more noise than that

No. Apparently a few more arrived now making 60 odd. I know someone at the match.

Technically it's not the U23 squad as the age limit is 21 for the academy teams entered (6 of the starting 11 must be under 21 as of June I believe). Agree it will be a good test for our developmemt players as our team tonight is a lot younger than those we've put out in the League Cup

Not far off from what Barnsley, Rotherham and Wigan will bring to us. Good effort.

 

[Eeyore]

I don't like what they've done to this competition but the upside is our returning players are getting a good run out.

Names?

Names?

I'm sure they'll all be listed in the club's match report.

First time that I have not been sure which team the scorer plays for.

There's half a page above explaining this.

Look further back in the thread. It's been explained.
