If you live near or can get down to Park View Road, the home of Welling United tomorrow, when The MIGHTY WINGS entertain Basingstoke in the Blue Square South (k.o. 3pm) you might bump into three footballing legends – Chelsea’s Kerry Dixon and Paul Canoville and West Ham’s Billy Bonds – who will be there supporting a very good cause, OUR ARMED FORCES VETERANS.
Tonight, the U18s travel to Pride Park to take on Derby County’s U18s in the quarter-finals of the FA Youth Cup which kicks-off at 7pm.
It is always an exciting time to watch our youngsters play and monitor their progress and this batch of U18s are no exception.
They have already been involved in an exciting cup campaign so far – beating Colchester United 3-2, Charlton Athletic 3-2 after extra-time AND after being 2-0 down and then in the last round Chelsea defeated Barnsley 3-0.
Youth team manager Adi Viveash refuses to take Derby County lightly. He said, “It’s another difficult tie. I went to watch them play against Man City in the last round and they’re a very hard-working team.
“They thoroughly deserved to beat Man City. That wasn’t a freak result, they really played well.”
There will be LIVE UPDATES on the message board below, and team news will be published as soon as it becomes available.
In the NextGen series, the U19s will be at home to Juventus in the quarter-finals after they beat Rosenborg 1-0 last night.
