Wouldn't have minded seeing Casey on the bench tomorrow night but unless the plan is that he's playing 45 that seems unlikely

Casey looks a proper goalhanger. have not had one of them for a while.

Agree. He simply seems to have the knack for no obvious reason.
Very handy and rather different in this day and age.

Lots of fluid breaks I should think, it's a hot 🥵 one at The Valley by the looks of it

seth plum

Fullah has been decent early on.

1-0 Casey.
That’s after Rylah hit the bar a minute earlier.

Put them all in the first team.

Sorry.

1-1
Birmingham have got their bearings, but dunno why we’re not leading by a couple of goals.

Mbick didn't seem to know what to do when running 1 on 1

Wasn't sure if he should loft it over him or run it passed him and did neither

Less than 30 seconds later its 1-1

Wasn't Sahid Kamara with us last season? 

Southbank

Some great passing from Santos.

Yes, signed a pro deal with Brum, err, today it seems

seth plum

We have had loads of good chances this half, both entertaining and disappointing in equal measure.

JamesSeed

We’ve got Santos and Ladapo. All are problem are over. 

Southbank

2-1 Mbick. Ahead as we should be

seth plum

I wish the camera operator could adjust the filters for the deep shadow at the Jimmy Seed.
2-1 Mbick close range Fullah assist.

Southbank

Santos's passing and crossing has been superb this half.

Chances missed in this first half we could easily be 5-1 up...

seth plum

Big smile for that Casey effort. Long range over the bar.
I think I can figure him out. He has that Hales kind of single mindedness.

HT 2-1

Great attitude then, we could do with some of that in the first team...

Southbank

Mbick has missed 3 open goals

Good thing he's only 16, plenty of time to work on his finishing

seth plum

I think fatigue is building for our players.

2-2

seth plum

I think we have had enough chances to be out of sight. Now it wii be tough.

Callumcafc

Never seen Fullah or Mbick before… new acquisitions or just very young / new trainees?

seth plum

Sixteen year olds.

FT 2-2, lots of impressive outfield play on a very hot day, shame about the missed chances to put this game to bed first half, could have been a win but some good prospects on show...
