[Albion] U21 v newcastle

[Dun Lurkin]

In the absence of a thread I am reporting that we are losing 1-0 at HT. Geordies seem more up for it than us. Our passing not up to usual standard and we are being pressed at pace. Cahill has made several good saves to keep score down. We have only had a few breakaway attempts which have so far one go nought. Hoping for a better second half.

Toon down to 10 apparently. I'm having trouble finding reliable info on this match

 

[Coldeanseagull]

Down to 9 now, only a couple of minutes left

 

[Coldeanseagull]

We were much more progressive in second half although couldn't score until the very end. B-B did hit the post though. Final ball in often wayward. A lot more composure required.

Thank you for the heads up. Like many others, I suspect, I had no idea an U21 match was even happening. For some reason the club is making very lttle publicity about the U21 matches this season - even the matchday 'commentary' (if indeed there is one - and the inverted commas are definitely needed round the word!) hardly tells us anything. And of course, time after time scheduling these matches for a day when there is PL football happening somewhere does nothing to help keeping us fans in the loop.
Even if they can't stream the games, could they not provide an audio commentry? If cost is an issue, I'm sure they could find plenty of fans willing to give it a go, for free!

I’m guessing Hinshlewood’s absence means he will be in the squad tomorrow?
Any others ?

 

[Coldeanseagull]

I reckon Hinshelwood will start tomorrow.....or be on the bench....or not in the squad at all, I don't know!

O’Mahoney with the goal again………another diamond being polished ?

Maybe they don't want people watching our U21s?!

Yes, it does feel like that, that's the problem.

I more meant, maybe they don't want other teams watching?

Other teams will always have scouts at the matches anyway.

Oh, fair enough, didn't know that was a thing
