Noticed the U21s are away against Wolves tonight - playing at AFC Telford United's ground, the New Bucks Head. As it it local to me, I'll pop along.

I'll admit to being a fairly bad fan - I have never seen the U21s play before - which players should I be looking out for?

Also, for anyone that is local - kick off is 7pm, tickets are £5.

Danny Pappoe, Jimmy Muitt and Jessie Starkey are always worth a watch. Enjoy the game!

I just hope it goes ahead - Telford were asking for volunteers to help clear the waterlogged pitch at lunch time:

EDIT: I have just phoned Telford United, and the man on the phones says the game is going ahead.

Any live updates from supporters who are watching this? Nothing on the Albion or Wolves twitter feeds.

A photo of a teamsheet would be great :thumbsup:

I was at the game and i thought the lads played quite well. Moved the ball around superbly well and looked far better than wolves. Robin Deen upfront ran around, huffed and puffed but didn't really get into the game. We had about 20mins where we tried to force it too much - so just like the first team, especially with the lack of a quality striker.

Wolves took the lead just before half time. Very controversial penalty, little tangle of legs but next to no contact.....poor decision (but the ref actually had a decent game. Walton got a strong hand to it but couldn't keep it out. We scored with literally the last kick off the game. Starkey whipped in a superb delivery and Will Collar flicked it over the keeper and in, via the bar. A very clever finish!

In all pretty good. The wolves left back was shocking and should have been sent off in the first half for countless fouls! Shame we didn't get Davis running at him more often
Charlie Harris looked the best player on the pitch with a real 'complete' midfielder's performance. Young Will Collar looked very tidy playing next to him. Walton looked very comfortable in goal too.

Didn't get a team sheet but 1-11 was:

1 Christian Walton
2 Bradley Barry
3 Dessie Hutchinson (i think!)
4 Will Collar
5 Danny Pappoe
6 Ben Barclay
7 Jason Davis
8 Charlie Harris
9 Robin Deen
10 Jimmy Muitt
11 Jesse Starkey

two subs came on and there we 12 Conor Tihge & 14 James Lilley

I have never seen Danny Pappoe before, but thought he looked really good - in terms of his physical development, he was visibly stronger than every other player on the pitch. If he were bench pressing next to me in the gym, I imagine that I would quietly leave the free weights area. On top of that, he looked like a good player - I was impressed.

Walton was assured, I initially thought he had saved the Wolves penalty, but it was just too strong to keep out. Otherwise, the players looked alright, technically very capable but as [MENTION=20158]Telford Seagull[/MENTION] says, they tried to force the issue a bit too much at times. They didn't look out of their depth against a Wolves team that included three players with regular first team experience.

Charlie Harris has always impressed me whenever I've seen him. First-team material, but for us or Swindon?

Pappoe seems to have serious (on field) discipline problems, that are going to hinder any chance of progression unless he is able to address them. He is a walking red card.

It sounds like a massive error from Walton.

Any keeper worthy of the Albion would have held that penalty.
