Depending on who they are playing but 3 in 3 is a tough ask in a pressure situation, with no wriggle room, good luck to them.

Looks like we'll be facing Crystal Palace / Swansea City and Coventry City

play-offs at least

Looking at the U18 South League table ........ I see Colchester Uni are bottom.

I hope they're looking for a degree of consolation.

ForeverAddickted

Didnt we win the U18 League the same year that our U21s won theirs as well.

Whereas the U21s went on to win the overall PlayOffs didnt the U18s lose their Semi-Final against Huddersfield on pens?

All set here. And they are off ...

Wasn't sure who Luke Carey was, seems he's an u15 but has come off the bench for the u18s a few times this season. There's an interview with him here:

Forest are big guys, pegging us back, but we look dangerous on the break

tricky

Forest are full of big strong players that look much older than 18. They're pretty direct as a result and have come on stronger as the half has gone on. We had a decent start and Lookman should have put us in front but put over from a good cross by Hanlan.

tricky

0-0 at half time. Charlton looking the stronger as the half came to a close. Their keeper made a great save from a Bone shot to equal a couple that Mitov made at the other end. Good play from Edwards in the left wing position to create the chance. Forest look strong at the back and we're struggling to break them down when it reaches the edge of the area. Most of the Forest chances have come from sloppy possession by Charlton, while they've had a couple of set pieces that have come to nothing. Charlton playing the better football but a pretty even first half.

Kap10

Good first half, apart from a spell half way through when we were mus led out of it, we were the better team. Definitely our skills v their brawn. One excellent save from their keeper before half time and a shot ballooned over when it looked like a guaranteed goal. Mitov made one excellent save.

Their no 10 has the physique of a 20 year old, but overall being handled, knocked. Yao into the hoardings and should have been booked.

Forest well organised in defence we'll need to sort out our final ball and be a little faster / sharper.
