Monkey_Blue added 20:41 - Jul 5 Blimey, it’s quick to be throwing them into a game unless the U21’s were back in training earlier than the first team.

trevski_s added 12:02 - Jul 6 Interesting there is a few names missing like Buabo, Boniface, Gray. Wonder if they are going to be included in the 1st team pre-season training and go to Austria too

Linkboy13 added 13:50 - Jul 6 Reminded me how poor last season's home kit was. Would be amazed if any of the u21s make the first team squad. The academy is in a mess with no signs of any future first team talent on the horizon and more ins and outs than the hoky koky.
