Turf Moor date for youths

Last updated : 21 December 2005 By Tony Scholes

Fulham won through with a 3-1 win at Middlesbrough, whilst the Clarets came through 3-2 in their tie against Hull at North Ferriby just a week ago, with two goals from Cayne Hanley and a winner from Ali Akbar, and that means we will meet the London club in the 4th round.

The good news is that the game will be played at Turf Moor and has been arranged for Wednesday 11th January 2006 with a 7:00 p.m. kick off. It is going to be a tough game for the lads and hopefully there will be a decent sized crowd to give them some support against the academy based set up of Premiership Fulham.

There’ll be more news of the game closer to the date but make a note of it now in your new diary and get down to see the lads in action if you can.

Meanwhile the youth team were heavily beaten last night in a friendly against local side Padiham. We have no details of the game other than the final score was 6-1.
