Thought a very makeshift team did extremely well tonight against a Fulham side that constantly harried us and we're also very physical. Ref should have got a card out a few times I thought to calm them down as they just kept getting away with it. Great ro see the younglings hold their own against one of the better Champ sides and the experience will do the world of good, as will the result. Firpo will a cracking penalty that shows there is a player in there and Gelhardt and McKinstry did superbly with their pens as well. Rodrigo did well to have the courage to take the first. Summerville excellent - looking forward to seeing more of him. Overall a pleading result in The Smoke and hopefully one that will help breathe a bit of life back into our season. On on on.

I think Sunderland or Preston would probably be the best draw for next round. would be another chance to give the young guns a run out, even if the injury situation improves. Would be even better at home of course, so they could savour Elland Road in full song.

That said, I’d hope a fair few will turn for the 5 u23 games which are played there later this season - first of which is on 29 October v Arsenal.

How good is Summerville really? Haven’t seen much u23 lately and his performance at weekend was ok but he never actually took a man on and got to the byline.
Basically what I’m saying is he a typical winger that beats defenders and gets crosses in.
