PREVIEW | Colchester Utd U18s v Wanderers U18s

Julian Darby Danny Clark

The Youth Team looks to continue its search for silverware when they make the long trip to take on Colchester United tomorrow (Saturday).

Julian Darby’s side faces the U’s – a Category 2 Academy side – at Maldon and Tiptree FC in the quarter-finals of the U18 Professional Development League Cup (KO 11am).

Peterborough United, Sheffield United and Cheltenham Town have already booked their places in the last four.

The Whites have been short of match time in recent weeks due to a number of postponements but continue to challenge on several fronts.

Wanderers currently top the EFL Youth Alliance Northern Section, are still going in the Youth Alliance Cup and face holders Blackburn Rovers in the Lancashire FA Youth Cup semi-finals next month.

Meanwhile, the U17s entertain Cambridge United in the quarter-final of their age group of the Professional Development League Cup next Wednesday afternoon (KO 2pm).
