Villa Reserves and Academy 2024/25 Season

[Brazilian Villain]

The EFL Trophy draw is on Friday evening. https://x.com/academyavfc/status/1858998347736179061

[Drummond]

Rovrem or Chessie please.

[dcdavecollett]

Agreed, Drum.

[Mister E]

Anywhere in Yorkshire will do for me (Chesterfield will do as well - saw them last Saturday: a decent but eminently-beatable team).

Not sure where they have got Friday from, the draw was today. Villa away to Rotherham.

Strange, as that academy account on X is usually on the ball. Anyway, a good draw for our Yorkshire Villans.

[Mister E]

Sorry: remind me again what the playing date is.

[Gareth]

Has the draw really been done? Even EFL website says it before champ game on Friday night

Sorry: remind me again what the playing date is.

The week commencing December 9th, but the draw isn't till Friday (i.e. may not be Rotherham away)

Ffs. Blame AD, useless gobshite.

It’s the EFL trophy draw for the knockout stage tonight. I assume from this we will be away to either Blackpool, Chesterfield, Doncaster or Rotherham.

My guess is Rotherham. I’d put money on it.

Edit: having caught up on the thread again, maybe not too much money.

It'll be Blackpool in the 'Roll up wor sleeves' derby.

[VillaMart58]

Certainly is:

Blackpool vs Aston Villa U21

[ADVILLAFAN]

Sure I'd seen that we were away to Rotherham and Blues away to Colchester.
