Two league wins in a row and off the bottom of the table. Good to see.

2 out of 3. Previous match West Ham beat us 4-1 at Bearwood.

U14 Premier League Albert Phelan Cup South

There are 16 teams divided into 4 groups of 4. Games take place over the whole season, with the top 2 going through to the quarter-finals. Final is usually in May.

Reading are in a group with West Brom, Wolves and Cardiff. Only result I know so far is that we beat West Brom 7-3.

You can register on Arsenal website and see highlights - looked like Arsenal should have won with all their chances - our GK made some good saves but we hit the post as well.

Every chance- plays regularly for the U 21’s and is scoring a few.

He's in their starting XI.

Will be interesting to see how much is career is impacted. He'd no doubt benefit from playing regular first team football at Reading, but at the same time he'd be around better coaches and players at Brighton. He's also in a much more stable environment there.
