Yeah, uni only had the goalkeeper starting from the game vs fc 20- must be saving themselves for their clashes v waimak in the weekend. I'm sure winning the league is more important for them then English cup. In other news, the under 21 league is getting split up, with two playen in Div 4 and two playing in Div 6.  So if that's correct a div 4 team (varsity reserves)just lost 3-2 to an MPL team? Why  didn't they put them in PDL? Seems to me the MPL old boys club stifling decent talent perhaps?

Bollocks. If they were so called decent talent they would be pushing for a spot in MPL by playing at an MPL or Div 1 club. So what is this so called old boys club you talk about? The inference I take is MPL clubs somehow hold sway over how Mainland construct the leagues? Nothing could be further from the truth. The U21 league was poorly considered and pandered to self interested clubs.
