Any info on todays u-18s and u-16s games?
Academy against Liverpool
- Thread starter oskarutd
- Start date
we lost 1-0 against liverpool in the u-18s.
Lost U16 too, 2-3.
how come the academy highlights are not being shown?
United's Academy teams both showed poor form in the duel with Liverpool at the Kirkby Academy.
It cold blustery conditions, unsuited to good football, the under 18's battled hard but were not able to show enough in front of goal and conceded ten minutes into the second half....from then on Liverpool showed more determination and as the more physical side could have scored once or twice more before full time.
Team: Amos, Derbyshire, Eckersley, Strickland, Chester, Drinkwater, Eikrem, Hewson, Brandy, Fagan, Welbeck.
Subs: Bryan (7), Cleverley (2), McCormack, Cathcart
In the Under 16 game, United took a two goal advantage, both from David Williams, before Liverpool pulled one back just before half time. In the second half United didn't look half teh team and Liverpool became more dominant scoring the winner with a few minutes to go.
Final score: 2-3

Thanks !Good to see that Cleverley is back. He and Welback seem to be ragarded by the coaches as u-18s players this season although they are 15/6. Do you know any more about who played in the u-16 game?TonyPark said:
Team: Triallist Keeper, Dudgeon, Moffatt, Norwood, Gill, Potts, Stewart, James, Williams, Bryant, Triallistoskarutd said:
Subs: Lampkin (7), Ajose (11)
I couldn't find out any info about the two triallists........
I suspect it'll only be home games and away games at proper grounds like the Britannia - not sure how feasible it'd be setting all the equipment up at what tend to be training grounds without proper facilities for TV.jules031272 said:
nah usually the case we get all the highlights includign the away games..but no sign of the Liverpool game
ah, didn't realise that. don't watch mutv except for live games on the interweb.
still, from my limited experience (an aborted media tech degree), delayed highlights and a live broadcast are very different things with the latter requiring greater equipment/effort/expense that the club may not yet see as worthwhile.

Thanks !TonyPark said:
Were would we be without you?
Might the trialists be Devlin and Brandao?
No! It wasn't either of those two.........give me a couple of weeks.....oskarutd said:
Could it be that Danny Philliskirk kid from Oldham?
No...they were two players I have never seen before.......M160RA said:

Thanks, Tony. Do you know whether or not we've signed up Philliskirk, or is he back with Oldham?TonyPark said:
