Interesting that they’re not using this as an opportunity to get a run out for some of the older squad to build match time - but good luck to them, tonight’s team that is.

Still 0-0…

Only Everton (2-0) and Norwich (5-1) U23’s with significant leads so far. Pompey 4-2 down at Yeovil (haha).

Not sure I like this group format, or that we have penos straight after 90 mins. Unless we win, then it’s fine by me.

I couldn’t see any of this on the main bbc football page (on my phone)

It’s not got great coverage by the BBC.

Relying on tweets from Saints.

Not good. We lost.

There was a live scores tab on the bbc site but that was all and they didn’t make it particularly obvious.

We march out.

good, lets leave it to the teams it’s meant for. Hopefully all under 23 teams will be knocked out first round.

It’s a group format, still 2 games to go against Crawley and Colchester.

Putting aside the politics of the situation, it’s interesting to see that our U23 side can comfortably live with a midtable League one outfit.

True, and but for a missed pen in normal time and another two in the shootout, we’d have got the points.

we need to practice taking penalties. Who is on charge of penalty practice at saints?

It was Graziano, not sure if anyone has taken over from him yet.

we got a point!
