[Albion] Leyton Orient (a) Tuesday 8th September

[Ooh it’s a corner]

Looks like 6 players U21 and only 2 players over 21 with more than 40 senior appearances so you can have 5 players over 21.

7.8 Each Invited Club must ensure that in each Match:

7.8.1 at least six of the starting eleven players named on the Team Sheet are players who were aged under 21 as at the 30th June in the year in which the Season concerned commenced; and

7.8.2 no more than two players who:

(i) are aged 21 or over; and

(ii) have made 40 or more appearances in a First Team Fixture (either in the starting elven or as a playing substitute) in each case as at the 30th June in the year in which the Season concerned, shall be named on the Team Sheet.



BTW - the official EFL website says Elven - I haven't changed it!

Thanks for clarifying!

Where is Lorent Tolaj? Not seen him mentioned for the U23s all pre-season, is he injured?

 

[Dick Swiveller]

Bit of a gippy stomach so decided to give £10 to the O's and pair up with the cricket on TV.

 

[Dick Swiveller]

They have a studio and advertising and everything!



Maguire-Drew starts for Orient.

Are Orient fielding full strength side

 

[Worthing exile]

Does anyone know if it is on IPTV?

Very unlikely as this is a club closed stream. And given lower league clubs are suffering more with no fans, I would be disappointed if it was.

As for the Orient team, they were suggesting it is pretty much reserves.

Ex Albion youngster Jordan Maguire-Drew starts for them

Pointy eared little buggers!

Orient hit the bar after another sloppy giveaway. Open game but poor passing from us.

 

[Dick Swiveller]

Commentator is woeful but co-commentator is excellent. Balanced and knowledgeable. Albion free kick just outside the box straight into wall..

 

[Dick Swiveller]

Well they are certainly in the mould of the first team. Lots of pretty football and no end pass. Lively start turns into snorefest.

 

[Dick Swiveller]

0-1

Failure to clear a free kick results in a League 2 style goal from a header.

 

[GT49er]

0-1.

Didn't deal with set piece.

Sorry to mention them again, but Leeds U21 having a bad night...

Leeds? Who are they?

 

[Dick Swiveller]

0 -1 HT

Not made their keeper make a save

I think a HT score of Accrington 5 Leeds 0 is worthy of mention.
