It is a David v Goliath battle tonight as leaders Derby County face off against the bottom side Albion at the national football centre. The Rams smashed the Seagulls 4-0 in the reverse fixture at the Lancing training ground back in October.

How many of the players in the Albion squad look like they could make the breakthrough to the senior side? Genuine question, as we seem to be whipping boys at the moment. I know this is our first season competing at this level so maybe that is the problem, or are we going to have to up the quality of the players we are signing. Most of that squad are fairly recent signings aren't they?

I would quickly un-know that fact, because it is actually our second season.

More of a concern in that case.

Anyone who watches care to comment on how many look like the real deal?

Molumby is a first-year scholar; Tilley, Vose and White are second-years [actually Tilley and White have signed as pros but they are all the same year].

Hunt, Barnett, Rea, Barclay and Hutchinson have all come through as scholars.

Walton was signed 3 years ago, Kandi 18 months ago, Starkey two and a half years ago.

Only Harper, Bjordal, Ayunga and Ward have been signed this season.

Why are Derby giving regular updates but the Albion twitter feed is quiet?

Looks like there are none of our youngsters being lined up even for bench-warming tomorrow night then. Still, good start tonight - keep it up boys!

The home club will always be the ones who do the twitter updates (I can't imagine many clubs will send a media person to provide updates from an away U-21 game).
