Reports on the two semi finals. This has to be great experience for our Academy lads. hereEdit: It would be nice if, as a result of friendships made, Flamengo and Stoke had a couple of exchange visits. Flamengo could stay in Fegg Hayes and visit the Brit while Stoke would get to stay in Rio and visit Flamengo's stadium - the Maracana! Fair exchange is no robbery! PS: On a more serious note - I do hope that our scouting network (such as it is) was involved in this trip - it would be nice to see us bring the next Brazilian wonderkid to England. PPS: Anyone know how Stoke came to be invited to this tournament? On the face of it you would expect a top English club (or one with a top rated academy, like Southampton) to have been invited ahead of us. Is this more evidence of the good work behind the scenes of Phil Rawlins and Inchy Heath?

Why did we wear the old away kit?? I assume we are not allowed to wear Bet365 shirts, to do with betting regulations. Flamengo had advertising on their shirts, but we didn't.

On the sponsor logo - they are u17s, they are not allowed to carry gambling adverts?
And its in the USA so I bet there is a gambling advert blackout too. They arent as forward as us Brits where you can advertise on kids tv lol

We were disciplined and worked hard, but there was a definite gulf in skill. We don't encourage them to express themselves enough. But it was a decent effort.

They arent as forward as us Brits where you can advertise on kids tv lol I know that you can't have Bet365 on the shirt due to gambling laws, but that is the same if we wear the new kit or the old kit, I just wondered why we wore last season's away kit not this seasons.
