I think the Arsenal youth team play somewhere exciting like Boreham Wood. Would be great if they used the first team stadium in Islington - can’t even remember the name
The We're-Sponsored-by-Arabs-As-Well-But-We're-Shíte-So-People-Aren't-Morally-Outraged-By-Us Stadium?

Match v Arsenal will it defo happen on the Saturday? I’m over for the snooker in Ally Pally that weekend.
Almost certainly midweek. Will be a big test but they only scraped through 3rd round.

Ridwan Hassan has gone to Harrow Borough on loan. Not usually anything to take too much notice of, but he is only 16! Didn't even know you could loan players out that young but great experience hopefully playing against men.

Owen, Walcott and Rooney were all playing EPL games at 16 so I wouldn't have thought that a loan would be an unreasonable path for a 16 year old.

Sure, I just thought players needed a pro deal to go out on loan. But maybe it doesn't matter when it comes to non-league loans or at least to the level of Harrow.

I just checked and the earliest a player can sign a pro contract is on the day of their 17th birthday. Agents and other clubs are liable for hefty fines for poaching players under this age.

At 16 it's usually only for the early physical developers, I.e a big unit or somebody lightning quick.
