Queens Park Rangers U23 vs Sunderland U23

Away to QPR, who are struggling about as much as we are in youth division one. Think anything could happen here, from a barnstorming five plus goals game to a boring 0-0, both sides are that out of form. As long as we can keep the tie neutral or slightly in our favour we will be well positioned to win the home leg and progress to the semi finals.

I am not sure we are as good as we were last season and we've just made a big transfer where T_Gill will go on to start his senior career at Coventry now (we did discuss his future opportunities and he wanted to try for first team football, we sincerely wish him all the best except if he has to play us!). Like I said earlier a lot of that is to do with developing players for the first team here or elsewhere, which should tell the current squad that if they train hard, work hard, not throw punches on the pitch, etcera - we'll invest in them and they'll get chances somewhere.

the 1st leg is at home and hopefully we can have advantage and win the home leg
