The U23s start their league campaign tonight at The Peoples pension stadium at 7 pm tonight , hopefully there will be a stream , looking forward to seeing the new signings and the retained lads , so close to pulling off a amazing PL2 league title at the first attempt last season , looking forward to this .



MATCH PREVIEWS


The newly-promoted side provide the first opposition of the new campaign, as the Seagulls look to build on last year’s third-placed finish.

Rusk’s squad has been added to over the summer with the signings of Taylor Richards, Lewis Freestone, Romaric Yapi and Andrew Crofts - the latter has also taken up a coaching position off the field alongside his playing responsibilities for the side.


By Paul Hazlewood

The opposition:
Wolves earned promotion to Premier League 2 Division 1 at the end of last term, ending the campaign with an impressive 3-2 win over Manchester United to round off a memorable year.

Rob Edwards’ side has been strengthened with the arrival of Meritan Shabani from Bayern Munich this summer. Cyriaque Mayounga has also joined from Lyon ahead of their first season in the top flight at this level, but the defender arrived in the Midlands with an injury and is likely to miss tonight’s contest.

The form:
Albion

1-2 v Chelsea (H)

0-1 v Everton (A)

2-2 v Swansea (H)

Wolves

0-2 v Oxford United (A) Friendly

0-2 v Celtic XI (A) Friendly

1-0 v Swansea City (A) Friendly

Whilst looking on the Wolves pages to see if they'll be streaming it I was amused by this on their pre-match brief:


On the challenge posed by the Seagulls

“It’s going to be a very tough test. It’s been difficult as we’ve not been able to see any of them from pre-season, and it’s been hard to find footage on them to base work off, although we’ve looked at them from last year.


Yeah us Brighton fans find it hard to find footage of them too!

I think people need to expect the U-23’s team to struggle this year. With so many players out on loan our aim should be to stay up.
