Refuse to believe Trent Mahorn isn't a character from Viz. |  | |  |

And the same to you, LOL Lost on anybody w/o Irish heritage?? Finished 3-0 to the Rs. Joe Gubbins followed by 2 from Alfie Lloyd. 6 of the starting XI had played in the first team - Mahoney, Gubbins, Masterson, Drewe, Bettache, SDM. [Post edited 22 Aug 2022 15:24]

| The Youth of today on 13:39 - Aug 24 with 2395 views | CheshireR | Cheshire R's contingent were present at both the U18 game at Heston and the U21 match at Leyland. Our first sighting of all the U18 players on show on Saturday and several caught the eye. The U21's were outplayed for long periods of the game yesterday by Burnley and the final score was hard fought but somewhat flattering. Two great finishes by Alfie Lloyd, but special mention to Murphy Mahoney who made several good saves and his well marshalled defence who worked tirelessly throughout the game. The first time I had seen starters Alfie Lloyd and Stan Flaherty and also subs Rafferty Pedder and Deon Woodman. [Post edited 24 Aug 2022 13:41]

I read the U21 report from Burnley site and they felt hard done by. Defford helps to have a keeper with first team experience. Even if only 2 or 3 matches. Be interesting to see if Heston allows us to attract better players to younger age bands. |  |

Last season loans to National League clubs took place outside of the transfer window but loans to EFL clubs are restricted to the window. |  | |  |

I'm disappointed Bettache hasn't pushed on as he seemed to have something about him in the bits I've seen of him. His loan to Oldham last season didn't appear to go well. Then he trained with the first team in preseason but wasn't included in the squad. Now he goes out to a National League team it seems to be a bit of a downward turn. There's still time and the club has an option on his contract for a further year but as you say, this could be his last chance to make an impression. |  | |  |
