Sounds like Moseley is off to a club in the US. A lot of people wishing him good luck on Twitter. His call up and subsequent performances were a massive surprise. He never looked even close to being good for the U-21's bar the early games. Good luck to him but I can't say I'm surprised. |

There was an interesting article in the mirror(and probably other sources I just happened to see it in the mirror) the other day saying that the fa are going to vote on changing the u21 league and having it as a premier league 2 whereby u21 teams would play the same fixtures as there main team so for example our u21s would play Watford away this weekend the clubs will be able to pick 5 over aged players and also games will be on tv and played at the clubs stadium and prize money is to be increased to £3million.
Also u18 and u16 age groups will be replaced with u19 and u17. And from next year there will be no month long loans and no loan window. All loans are 6 or 12 months so will be interesting in August to see who the club loan out for 6 months

According to the article it looks like the league proposal is scheduled for 2017/18 www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/new-premier-league-ii-reserves-7569298 |

I watched the under 21s play Brighton yesterday and struggle to beat a mediocre team by a penalty. Moha wasn't outstanding, but the potential was there to see. The goalkeeper looks promising and Liam Edwards is perhaps not a Premier League centrehalf in waiting, but might do well as a fullback. He is a good defender with pace, mobile and good on the ball. Maybe he could solve the need for a young rigntback to eventually take over from Johnson/Bardsley.
Anyone know the result of the under 18s yesterday?

Has anyone seen Abdallah play? Personally I'm quite impressed with the scoring record he's got considering he's just moved country let alone club.

It's not a bad idea that and it gives the chance for u-21s to play some mans football without the whole B team thing. Even if it's only a couple of games a season it's still good experience. |

That's awesome!  I get to hear of a few of the younger age groups results (not this young though) and they always seem to do well so hopefully they can go out there and get some wins. But an experience even if they don't! |

interesting to hear Bojan's dad takes an interest when he's over. He must like the club.

Going to be really shit if the final is Man City U21s v Chelsea U21s Yes, smaller clubs will get financial compensation, but what does that mean for the fans of these teams.....I bet they would prefer the opportunity to go to Wembley. There was 73,000 for the Bristol City v Walsall final last year. Would they have preferred their team get a pay off instead??? |

I think by and large they will get hammered |

Great news for safc. They were recently bought by the San Antonio Spurs sports group. I do wonder if this is a loan just through the summer though. |
