Under 18s 21/22

[Max Arnold]

I can never find much info about our under 18s, so thought it would be good to have a thread like the Lincoln City Women's thread. We beat Rotherham 5-1 yesterday with Sean Roughan and Billy Brooks both scoring, Kyrell Wheatley with two and Tayo Alexander-Tucker also scoring. We are now second in the table behind Grimsby.



FA Cup on 3rd November against Aylestone Park on Wednesday which I believe is on the outskirts of Leicester. https://www.weareimps.com/news/2021/october/imps-to-face-aylestone-park-in-fa-youth-cup/ .

Thanks for this, not much online about them as you say. Only question is should the title not be 21/22?

 

[Max Arnold]

ha um yeah, the shame, can an admin edit it please?

Thank you Admin.

There's a separate thread for the FA Youth Cup below.

The Youth Alliance issues a weekly bulletin with all fixtures, results and tables:

More accurate than the likes of Soccerway although not quite so quick to appear.

We beat Huddersfield 2-1 away, still second in the table.

I remember that our youth team always did well in the leagues under Grant Brown. Unfortunately, the likes of Ollie Ryan and Leon Mettam were about the best we produced. The problem with looking at results and league tables for the youth team is that it doesn't matter how good our youth team as a whole are. It will always come down to whether our best 2 or 3 young players are good enough.

This is good.

Good strike, good name.

Please note the last 5 games works from left to right, ie we have won four on the trot.

We just need some players to get us over the line a couple of times whilst waiting for some of these players to come of age (and others to fall by the wayside)

That looks like a good league for the first team with all juicy derby games. A shrunken div 3 north kind of thing.

4-1 win today against Scunthorpe u-18s away.

Soon be time to give some of these lads a start for the 1st XI! Draper is clearly up to standard, give Gallagher a run-out?

So proud that we at Vitals help with sponsorship for these young stars of the future - thanks for organising that, @Jules

And top of the league for Christmas! Well done lads.

On that record almost worth Grimsby starting with their U18 side in their league.

And our U18’s have scored 32 goals in 13 games…. Dreamland as far as the first team is concerned.

I hear glory hunter @Norfolk Imp has already made enquiries about getting an U18 half-season ticket.
