Anyone watching it?  Just checked, you equalized on 61, they scored on 62, they got two yellow cards on 64’ (one was a second yellow), then another yellow after a sub at 67’.

Bilbao U19s (h)

Result:
Newcastle U19s  2  Athletic U19s  3

The U19 side were defeated at Gateshead Stadium on Wednesday afternoon.

Team: Dowell, Bailey, Charlton, Munda, Brayson, Shahar, Neave, Watts, Seung-soo, Ferreira, Old.

The young Magpies are one of six clubs in the 36 club league yet to register a point, in stark contrast to the visitors who still boast a 100% record from their opening four fixtures.

Kicking off with a 3-1 home win over Arsenal, the Basques registered a 4-0 victory at Borussia Dortmund followed by a 3-0 success against Qarabag in Bilbao.

Forward Manex Lozano has netted in all four games to date, his tally of five is the same as the entire Newcastle team have managed in this competition so far.

Bailey looks like he has a bit of Adam Wharton about him. Scored a good goal.

[Ronson333]

Just equalised and we have 58% possession away from home 😳

[Geordie Ahmed]

Losing, decent finish from Harrogate

 

Since I've been watching we haven't been good, poor from Bailey in midfield for that goal 

[Keegans Export]

The young lads doing a great job of showing they're ready to fit into the first team by being absolutely shite away from home

It actually blows my mind that the last post in here was on November 11th. I just popped in to check how your European campaign was going.

6 games, 6 losses for the ressies in the UYL.

[splinter]

Needs a total clear out at u19 and 21.Wilson needs to sack whoever is signing  these players.were nowhere near it.

The lads who built Chelsea's academy still kicking rocks? Just give them as much as they want and ask them to sort it.

Manchester United are set to appoint Newcastle’s head of youth recruitment Paul Midgley to fill the same role at their academy, Confidential understands.

 

United have been looking to replace Luke Fedorenko, who is on gardening leave as he prepares to leave Carrington to take up a new job with an agency.

It’s understood Midgley has been chosen from more than 10 candidates after an extensive selection process. He joined Newcastle from Leeds three years ago and was previously UK scouting manager at Manchester City, where he worked with United’s director of football Jason Wilcox and new academy chief Stephen Torpey.

 

United might face resistance from Newcastle, who put up a fight when United made an approach for sporting director Dan Ashworth last year. Ashworth spent more than four months on gardening leave while United thrashed out a compensation deal with Newcastle, and ended up costing the club a total of £4.1million when he was sacked by Sir Jim Ratcliffe after just 159 days in the job, or £25,000 a day.

[TaylorJ_01]

I don't purport to know much about it, but based on this page we should drive him to Old Trafford

[toontownman]

I dont know if there is such a things as consistency with all these youth positions. Seems so insidious and incestuous with staff jumping at the next pay check to a different club every other year.

 

The overarching club plan and implementation is most important. Then its less about having to start at the drawing board and more about finding the right person for our system. Hopefully thats where we are at because I believe we will replace him with someone solid.

That’s all I needed to know. Wilcox is a proper red flag, continuously goes for people he knows. Destroyed Southampton with that approach.

Let midgeley off to manure.utter disaster since he arrived.
