Yes, of interest to me as our first game is taking place in my hometown of Bishop Auckland, and as I work from home I think I could swing by that game on Monday next week.

Are there any details of how/where/when to get tickets or do I just assume I can turn up and pay on the day?

Is it even open for spectators do we know? I assume it must be, given that the dates and locations have been advertised?

Positive sign in theory. Need to get that second string playing better standard of games than it does currently. I know I've mentioned this a few times but as a non-regular watcher of the U23s, I've been pretty alarmed at the standard of the games I've seen recently.

Definitely seems like people can attend - here is some info for a different U-23 game

Can't find anything on Bishop's website for Monday as yet, might be worth tweeting them?

I'm 99% sure it'll be pay on the gate but I've got plenty of Bishop and Middlesbrough supporting mates here that'll know in an instant.

At least there'll hopefully be one lunatic in a QPR face mask there on Monday! Any others planning to come, let me know!

I’ve said it hundreds of times and il say it again lol along the lines of clives post they should enter into the Middlesex cup like Brentford , afc Wimbledon , Barnet and a few others do yes it’s against non league mostly but they are playing real football against men rather than boys. Don’t get why they have not entered it or the London senior cup either. Bring back proper reserve football from the Avon combination days. All the south east clubs playing each other home and away no restrictions on age much better

Poll: Now it’s slightly clearer cut who do you want as manager ?

I`d take that idea a step further, and have a M4 cup/league stretching from Brentford to Swansea.

U-23's Cup on 11:21 - Sep 6 with 4500 viewslankylancaster

Formation looks like a 4-1-3-2 to me.

Playing ok so far, Amos spreading the ball about a fair bit just in front of defence.

Mema and Ajose on the wings making good runs in behind.

Little being very vocal in goal.

HT, 0-0

Playing well going forward, couple of half chances for Taylor-Crossdale.

Pitblado and Mema making some nice moves and runs in behind on the left side.

Defensively we look a bit frail, couple of really good chances for Middlesborough but thankfully their finishing has been poor. They are playing a quick pressing game whenever we get the ball in midfield.

Not convinced by Duke-McKenna yet, bearing in mind this is the first time I've seen the U23s live. Lost the ball a couple of times in front of defence trying to be too clever.

Drewe looks a bit out if his comfort zone too, their right winger has gotten the better of him a couple of times.

Little in goal looks really commanding.

Off for a burger and a cup of tea.

Substitutions 58th min

Ajose off, williams-lowe on

Look like direct replacements, no change to formation.

Two great chances!

Duke McKenna wiggles his way into the box from midfield, shoots straight at keeper

Then a couple of mins later a lovely cross-come-shot from the left from Taylor-Crossdale, keeper saved and spilled, bobbled just out of reach of Aoraha, who was incoming at speed.

Impressed with Aoraha so far even though he's only been on a couple of minutes.

Middlesbrough coming more and more into the game now, pressure being applied and we're struggling to get out of our half. They've had a couple of really good opportunities, should be in front by now.

We're going more direct, just to keep the ball away from our goal, not very pretty.

Sustitution

Aoraha off (looks like a minor injury), McLean on

McLean moved to right back, Drewe has moved into the middle in front if the defence.

0-1 92nd minute

Lost the ball cheaply in midfield, pounced on by Middlesbrough, chipped shot over Little into the net.

It's been coming, I must say... 😞

We've got 8 minutes of added on time in total so it's not done yet...

FT 0-1

Fair result in the end, we got pressed back more and more as the second half wore on, no real sign of being able to respond.

Positives - Amos looked very composed until his substitution, likewise Taylor-Crossdale looked good, just a lack of service. Little in goal had good command of the area, nothing he could do about the goal. Gubbins and Mahorn on the whole composed, again not much they could do about the goal.

Negatives - Duke McKenna looked like he was having an off day, lost the ball plenty of times trying to be too clever taking players on when an easy pass would have been a better option. Frailing made some good runs into the box with the ball but ultimately didn't ever look like getting the final touch right.

Bearing in mind they are still young kids learning, I can't be too harsh on them. Shame to start the competition with a loss though.

Good to see another run out for Amos, think that's the third game he's played for the U23s with presumably no problems.
