Dpl v Derby u23s

Micky: Re suspensions, these checkatrade games stand apart from the regular ones.

I'm going 2-1, Beestin and Copps or Marquis if he's playing.

Butler, Dickov's first team coach, has gone and you wonder how he lasted so long. Newyankee would have been relieved to see this news .

Derby win 2-1 Calder to score crowd 1476

No interest in this competition, the only bonus is we get get game time for Baudry and Keegan, plus our bright young things.

Well done, lads. Pity about the goal in the 90th minute or I would have had the correct score and scorer. It seems Marquis should be removed from the PK takers list! However, I have not seen his attempt and it may have been a very good save.

What I find difficult and why I have no interest in teams from the premier and championship is derby u23s consists of an Austrian international 25, a Scottish international of 26, striker in Nick Blackmail who's 26. So for an u23s team where's the opportunity for 3 young attacking lads who will be working and training hard to try and force there way into the team?

That is just one of the reasons why the competition is such a farce.

If Rovers can't win the thing then i hope that two under 23 teams get to the final because it will be a financial disaster for the EFL when only a few people buy tickets to see it.

Some of the PL teams barely have an English lad in their team.
