No. It boils down to how interested someone is and, obviously, BP1960 is. Youth games used to be tweeted on the OAFC account, did they not?

oafc1955 Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 TBF…it surely doesn’t involve much time & effort to put the teams sheets up and the result and scorers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit he doesn’t look like a footballer. When I watched the BPA friendly I thought he was coming in at centre back, was surprised he went upfront. He’s a built lad that’s for sure.

Nobody is saying don’t report on them , just that it might not be practicable to do so at the click of one person’s fingers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't Twatter usually have a kind of 'live feed' on the youth team matches? I imagine youth team match reports will take just as long as a first team report to reach the official site. I'm not one for keeping up with their games but I miss the old reserve team games at a cold, sparsely populated BP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One criticism I do have of the club is they now prioritise Twitter and sometimes don’t post to the website at all - the recent pitch inspection being an example not everyone is on that toxic platform 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avro took him on loan and said he wasn't ready for senior football yet, think he only played two games for them. Interesting to see how he develops...

Yes that's also fair comment as I might watch the odd youth game(or the B team). Hopefully comms on things like this also improve alongside results .
