Have to agree with that Strangely though, unlike a lot of clubs, we don’t usually field experienced U23 sides. There is the possibility for clubs to play three overage players, four if you include the keeper, so games could still be a bit more competitive within the current framework.

While, as I said, I too lament the passing of the Central League, that strong team did actually contain 6 players 23 or under, including 4 teenagers Link to post Share on other sites
