[Albion] Albion U21s at Steyning Town Tonight (15th)

[Dick Knights Mumm]

International break ? Who cares. You can come along and watch the Albion U21s at Steyning Town tonight. BIG match for the club. Parking available at the school (BN44 3RQ - right next to the ground). Pay on the gate. See our young lads and support local football - what is not to like.

I bet very few of you know the significance of what is depicted on the Steyning Town badge? Clever clogs press your keypad now!

St Cuthman's Wheelbarrow. The story has it that he carted his nan up from the West Country in it and St Andrew's was built where the rope that he hung over his shoulders snapped.

BIG match for the club.

We recently played and beat Ajax so I am not sure it is THAT much of a big game for the club.

Very good.

Anyway - see Gary Dicker's lads in action, it's going to be a lovely evening, and both teams will be playing the beautiful game.

And that was just before they built the M4 motorway. Respect!

.....and a good half a team of U21s away on international duty! Could be a good time for Steyning to play us? Good luck to the lads remaining - it may not be the greatest trophy in the world, but it's still a trophy and it would be god to win it (again)!

It’s about time God gave someone else a chance.

Let me know when that's going to happen - then I'll join the queue!

Our SSC side is usually U18s I think.

Is it? Fair enough I suppose. It would be a bit unfair if we played our first team - but I hope we pepper the U18s with a few older heads anyway. I think it's a voluntary thing that we don't put out the first team, isn't it? - so maybe we could slip in one or two that need some game time!

Only ONE of the players that featured in the last Sussex Senior Cup match (at Shoreham five weeks ago) is away on international duty.

Our SSC side is usually U18s I think.

Its a mix, Barrington, Flower, Duffus all featured at Shoreham. As well as some more peripheral U21 squad members.

This was the team in the last round think the entire starting XI have featured for the 21s this season barring Ryan. @AZ Gull can of course correct me.

That was the only appearance so far this season for goalkeeper Hugo Fisher - he subsequently joined National League South Weymouth on an emergency loan and made three starts.

Charlie Tasker has only made one other appearance (in the U-21 PL Cup), Kain Ryan's only other appearance this season was a pretty disastrous 45 minutes for the Stoke City U-21s in a 10-1 defeat at Manchester United in August and Joe Knight has just a couple of other appearances for the side. But yes, it was a bit of a stronger line-up than I expected.

But a good number who could have played tonight are away on international duty! Anyway, hope we've got the right balance to get the three points tonight!

Gary Dicker will be able to walk to the ground from his house, him being a Steyning local.

I'm about to leave, looking forward to seeing my hometown club against the Albion. I will feed back later on what I have seen.

Surely it’s Shannon Ruth’s lads. He is head Coach for U21
