Hopefully some will get a chance in the first team, sooner rather later. Bit difficult though with so many loan players signed.

There is a nasty bug going around the training ground so not surprised Hamon is given a rest, particularly given the miles travelled on Friday and Saturday.

Yes Matt mentioned something about it after the match on Saturday, hope it clears up soon and doesn't affect the preparations for Saturday

Excellent result, and some good experience for the youngsters.

Nottingham Forest v Leicester seems not to have a date arranged yet. Likely to be after our final match?

So with the exception of 19 year old Alex Hartridge that was an under-18 team and they’ve just won 3 nil away at the team who are top of the championship and have a category one academy. What is more they also have arguably have the most successful Sporting Director in the country and someone who takes pride in developing young players.

‘At every club he’s worked at, Webber has been instrumental in shaping recruitment and the development of young players‘

That's some serious travelling on the back of a trip to Carlisle if any players or coaches are doing both matches; I didn't see Dan Green at Saturday's game but presume he was there and will also be in charge tonight.

Not sure about the coaches but it looks like Will Dean was the only player to travel to both which I make it is about 1 300 miles of travelling. Welcome to the glamorous world of professional football, Will!

What a fantastic result. I was thinking the same as SEA about it being more of an U18 side. Bodes very well for the future.

FULL-TIME | Norwich City 0-3 Exeter City

A clinical second half means Exeter come away with the points against a young City side.

Norwich getting their excuses in - I would be surprised if they were younger than us.
