Youth team U18s

Their game against Salisbury was/is due to be played at TP on Saturday. With first team at home in the FAC, is the game pp'd or moved to another ground?

Did the F A Youth Cup game at Manor Farm (due to be played at Twerton but moved because of the Women's game) on Monday go ahead because I can find no mention of it anywhere?

They lost 3-0.

And I would assume Saturday’s game has been moved.

Very poor that there was no mention of the Manor Farm game result on City's website, regardless of how we got on!

To be fair, the cup result is mentioned on the website - go to the Matches tab - and lists those fixtures which are to be played at Odd Down or TP. However, strange that no mention of the match on Monday was made in the News item giving information about their fixtures.

I guess that’s a compliment if not listing a youth result is ‘very poor’ - I had a trawl through other websites in our league yesterday for various stats info and some didn’t even have an update from their first team game on Tuesday night.

Like us though I expect the person(s) in charge are volunteers. I found the youth result from Twitter and believe it was on the FA site. Might just be me but the SW Counties Youth League page on the FA site is still showing last season.

Nonleaguematters.co.uk is an excellent website with fixtures, results and tables for steps 1 to 7 and beyond and all FA competitions inc the Youth Cup.

Junior is correct - our PR is very good compared to many other clubs. I'm sure I'm not the only one who can remember a time when communication with supporters was almost non existent.

And thanks, LR, for that link to the Non League Matters site - just had a quick look and it looks very informative and well presented.

Interesting site. Odd that they have not included Taunton and Dover on the map of all NLS teams.

My post about not being able to find the Youth Cup result wasn't meant as a criticism of anyone, I just wanted to know what it was!

I think that you are being very lenient Les.

Whilst not wanting to criticise unduly - I had just been expecting a little bit of news about it on our website, conscious that youths are particularly keen to see their teams publicised - and it was their 'FA Cup match' after all.
