U18’s at BDBL in t’cup.

So that’s now 3 centre halves unavailable
I’m sure someone said we had a shortage of those 😬
I thought you were jesting when you asked the question Bully.FFS it's crazy in my view for a academy red to mean they can't play for the senior side.It would've been a tight game anyway at the Hawthorne's in my opinion but jeeezzz we're mekin life hard for ourselves lately.UTB

I googled the question just to make sure and here’s the answer

As expected the font of all football knowledge was correct

Yes, a red card received in a development league can count for a player's first team games in the championship:



  • Suspensions apply across competitions
    Suspensions for red cards apply to both league and cup competitions.



 
He's not showing as suspended yet on the official EFL Championship site and it's usually updated daily so 🤞. Sickeningly, the only two players currently listed as banned in the Championship are Anel and Souttar so RND would give us an unwelcome hat-trick.
 
U/18's beat Hull 2-1 after bein 1 nil behind.Aaron Reid & Jeavon Beattie scored,Beattie also had a pen saved.I went to Shirecliffe today and when i was goin in a steward said to me that the game was to be played behind closed doors,he said it was decided yesterday to play it behind closed doors.I said why dint they let fans know,the steward said he dint know.Glad the lads won tho.UTB
 
Good win tonight in the FA Youth Cup v Blackburn 3-2.
(Without Jevan Beattie - don’t know why).
Great winner from Dylan Tawodzera.

Well done lads!
Derby or Sunderland next.

They are a Prem Youth Team just beneath Man C and Man U in table. We gotta get out of the Development League.
