A date has yet to be confirmed for the tie, but it will take place at some point before Christmas. Walkers Youth Academy manager Jon Rudkin said: "It's a good tie for us and it will be a tough test from the boys. "To be playing at the Walkers is a big incentive for the lads, and I am sure there will be a healthy crowd on the night to cheer them on."

MBK Posted 17 November 2006 Share Posted 17 November 2006 It is a worrying thing if clubs notice our best players and come in for them. Everything summed up hope they win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thracian Posted 17 November 2006 Share Posted 17 November 2006 It is a worrying thing if clubs notice our best players and come in for them. Everything summed up hope they win I think other clubs will have been well aware of our best youngsters for a long while. Pity Chambers is out though. I seem to recall he was injured before last year's Youth Cup and made his comeback in the competition when only half fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its true sometimes i wonder why players like chambers and mattock are still with us because they do seem very good. Hope they get their chance next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
