Waste of time . At 23 they should be playing proper football with grown men .

We have a development squad with Giles Cole in charge don't we, or at least that was the idea wasn't it?

The loss of proper reseve team football is such a miss for the young lads transitioning from youth team to first team..

Hoping Khouri gets some game time now til end end of season too looks a good prospect..

An under 23s development team was Marcus bignot brainwave wasn't it, certainly he wanted to start one he said during a fans forum.

Peter swann actually did start one off during his time at scunny didnt he, that went well.

Considering the pedigree of those advocating a league 2 team spend their limited resources on a u23 team I'm not sure I would be advocating it.
