mainly Leagues One and Two. I think PNE, Huddersfield and Rotherham were the only Championship level clubs.

Out of 45 teams, Luton and Brentford are the only Premier League clubs, us and Huddersfield are the only Championship clubs.

Tbf I totally missed off Rotherham. Portsmouth beat Brentford in one of the earlier rounds and we beat Luton in the final a couple of years back
Just noticed Plymouth are in there too.

OK - so you missed Rotherham and Plymouth. But I forgot there was a even southern section to the competition.
Please don’t ask the obvious question that arises from us having defeated Portsmouth in the final 😂
not coming between you two but there can be a false narrative between the league the parent club are in and the strength of the academy.
'some clubs' lower down the pyramid invest proportionately more in their academies cos they cant always afford to sign seasoned pro's...
If there was no livestream perhaps there will at least be some highlights - I would like to see us winning a Cup. This year is the 60th anniversary of well you all know what - it still hurts and some video from last night would be a bit of a palliative.
Well done to the lads, grandson could have gone down with them if he hadn’t been in Lanzarote.
when does he find out if he will get a scholarship or is he not even in Yt11 yet ?
