Goodison Park tonight at 7pm for the #FAYouthCup 3rd round tie between @evertonfc.com and Nottingham Forest.

Well that was a game and a half.

#Everton coming from 2-1 down at half time to score two in injury time and beat #Liverpool 3-2.

It’s Finch Farm for me this morning for #Everton v #Liverpool

Best wishes to the @blythspartans.bsky.social U18 player who was stretchered off earlier. I hope he’s back on the pitch as soon as possible.
Not a nice sight.

Evan Ferguson is reportedly available for a loan. It is a good example that player projection is hard and development is not linear. He is still a talented player but he has not kicked on in the same way you would have hoped.

@asfcofficial.bsky.social for the #FAYouthCup Second Round tonight against Blyth Spartans as we get towards the business end of the competition.

With Bert due to roll in anytime from now do we reckon many games will survive at the weekend? I’m due up in Lancashire and to be honest I don’t hold out much hope.

Lee Carsley has done an excellent job for #England. Yes there was the Greece game but he experimented and admitted his error.
Overall his remit was caretaker and get promoted. He did it and gave a good few debuts too.

I’d have Carsley at my club for sure.

The #FAYouthCup third round proper draw is now on the FA website here:

After a few weeks off, a busy one with Youth Cup games this week.

Tranmere v Wrexham on Wednesday night
AFC Fylde v Northampton Town on Friday night and what a game that was with it going to pens, the Fylde keeper saving two and scoring the winner.
