Can’t now qualify for the further stages of the Int cup( 1 match to play) and the PL cup( 2 matches to play).
Goal for the remainder of the season finish in top 8 of PL 2 for a home draw in play-offs or finish top 16 for a place in play-offs and next seasons Int cup( currently 16th in the PL 2 table).
Win the B & B Senior cup would also be nice.

I thought defeat would see us eliminated. Still a really good experience for the young lads.

Seems our PL2 form has picked up now we’ve got players back from injury and a more stable squad. As you say, a top eight finish has to be a target (with a top sixteen finish as the back-up).

Winning the B&B Cup would be a nice bonus.

CBC seems to have dropped off the face of the earth. Hasn’t been involved in first team cup matches and now not involved with the U21s. Is he injured?

Came off at half-time a couple of weeks ago against Brighton and hasn't featured since. Being replaced mid-match implied a injury but who knows.

Notcott looks to be a 'better' keeper (as did Rhone in the second half against Brighton) so no great loss really

CBC's career does seem to be rather stalling. Talk of great promise but really not a lot seen on the odd occasion he's got the nod. Hoping it all works out well of course.

Very good effort. I'll give you ten for Church and nine for trying hard with the rest. Oran Kuhl!!

Could try local towns next? Reece Oxford, Les Henley, I'm struggling now, there's probably an A Scott somewhere in the past ...
