Should be good experience for the kids to play lower league teams
I'll be hoping our kids get drawn away to Blackpool or Fleetwood for convenience. ;)
City won on penalties in their first match in the competition at Rotherham. It went straight to pens after a 1-1 draw after 90 mins. Garre scored for City. We don't play in it now until the 24th October at Bradford. Difficult to know what to make of it.
is this the old auto windscreens thing?
Yes, it is
A decent result considering the side we put out was more like an U-19 than an U-23 team.
Looks like it was mainly Rotherham reserves also though.

I notice their goal was scored by ex-City academy graduate David Ball, another in the long list of ex-players to score against us. :D
Goals and the winning pen are at the link below, we're about the third game shown.
