The Colls Development Squad kick-off our season today, on the road at Ashton Athletic in the NW Under 21 Development League 🙌
It's full time, the Colls exit the FA Youth Cup 🏆
All of the lads deserve their plaudits for stepping up to face a higher level team at a higher age bracket, and especially their fantastic defensive showing second half.
Best of luck to Wythenshawe in the next round 🤝
We are underway in the FA Youth Cup!
It's been a lively start at both ends, with a great double save from Zak Williams for the Colls, but Wythenshawe lead
0-1, '07 🏁

To the young players, don't be afraid to drop a level or two. If you are good enough, you'll go back up if you are playing well and enjoying it. Go for minutes not money.
Big thanks to @WRAFC1stTeam and @OfficialDHFC for giving @Liam_sheppard9 the chance
