The Barnes brothers, Louis and Sam, plus Sam Hare who were also unused subs at the Valley will also start.
Kick off time at Hyde United's Ewen Fields is 7.00pm - please do your best to get along to cheer on the young Hatters.
County: Rigby; Disney, L Barnes, Williams, S Barnes, Fitzpatrick, Murty, Roberts, Poole, Fisher, Hare.

One familiar face involved then.

i presume thats our former youth team player david poole?
Based on the academy team we put out last weekend, I think we might see Pogba, Petrucci and King all start. Which should be interesting.
Is Hargreaves not supposed to be involved?
He's "pencilled in" for the reserve derby on Thursday night.
As Macheda is started training as well, he might be involved too
Great.
United:
1. Zieler
2. Moffat
5. Cathcart
6. Wootton
3. Gill
8. Possebon
4. Evans
10. Norwood
7. Stewart
9. Brandy
11. Ajose
Bench:
13. Devlin
14. Eikrem
15. Cole
16. Keane
Good to see Eikrem back from injury, and Cathcart too. Not as many Academy players as expected.

I've been doing crap at keeping up with the reserves this season. How long has Possebon been back?
Pogue with his usual incorrect team selection. At least this time there was no "definately".
Any streams for Mac going about?
Didn't knew that Cathcart was recalled from his loan
Either did I
Dear God, is nothing sacred?
feck off out of this forum and don't come back. For pity's sake, this is the one part of redcafe that's a spastic free zone.
Or used to be, anyway...
Glad Cathcart is back his loan spell which started promisingly didnt end so well.
Odd that none of the names I mentioned (King, Pogba, Petrucci) started on Saturday, or made the squad for tonight. Injured? Rested for Thursday?
I think it was only a loan til January and he left early as injured and had a knee op and this is his first game back.
I think Petrucci has been injured, I have no idea about the other 2.
Pogba to join Scholes and Fletch in midfield, or King up top with Berbatov on Wednesday?
More likely to be Rhain Davis.
Awesome ball from Norwood.
de laet with the first team squad ?
Got Hargreaves place in the CL squad and Brown's injury means he's in with a chance of getting on the bench.
thought so too , maybe just as a precaution
think rafael/neville and evans will be on the bench with one of raf/nev starting
stockport nearly scored .. shouldve scored

Stockport come nearest to scoring from Wootton's sliced attempt at a clearance that Zieler does well to save, and then a goal line clearance.
Stockport working hard and United have got in good positions but been wasteful so far.

There's quite a few players who really need to be moving on at this level - Brandy, Hewson and Zieler in particular spring to mind, and Stewart and Ajose could both do with going out on loan too.
EDIT: Possibly a bit early for Stewart and Ajose to go on loan, but Evans and Norwood could certainly do with some first team football.

This is about as bad a half as the reserves have produced all season.
very similar to the performances of the first team and academy team at the weekend. poor passing lack of a good final ball.
stockport bossing it now
not expected

Moffat was on loan as well wasn't he? Where was he and how did it go?
overload
get ball forward - pass to feet - push higher up - take more risks
i expect us to score a few now

He was at Altrincham, I saw no reports of how he got on. He looks extremely rusty.
Lackluster. Bring on Eikrem and Keane.
Great finish from Keano against Crewe btw.
Keane for Ajose.
Slightly better half so far, no clear chances created yet though.

Sorry guys, this is my fault. Whenever I remember to watch the reserves, they always turn unaccountably shite.
