Under 21s tonight







Ticket site was knackered so can't get tickets. I logged in but kept getting this...

Shame as this one isn't being streamed I don't think.

Looks a bit odd.... Holla in the back four? Goldson in midfield? - and why is he no.17 when everybody else is numbered 1 to 11?

On a typical teamsheet, no. 2 is RB, no. 3 is LB, no. 4 is central (or holding or defensive) midfielder, and nos. 5 and 6 are the CBs.

Oh yes, I'd forgotten it used to be like that when teams were numbered 1 to 11. Long time ago! Have got so used to the

It is his first team squad number. I don't know why he is wearing his when Holla/Manu etc are not wearing theirs, but that would explain the number.

As, for example, in:

Brighton & Hove Albion
13 Stockdale
02 Bruno
03 Greer
05 Dunk
23 Rosenior
20 March
06 Stephens
07 Kayal
15 Murphy
10 Hemed
25 Zamora

(From the BBC on Saturday)

If you do tune in to the stream note that they have the score wrong: it's 1-0 to us but it's showing as 0-1.


UPDATE: now fixed.
