FA Youth Cup defence begins tomorrow


Manchester City's Under 18 side will start their defence of the FA Youth Cup tomorrow night away at Swansea City.

After
last season's fantastic cup run, which culminated in a 4-2 aggregate
victory over Chelsea in an enthralling two legged final, the journey
starts again and it has excited our hosts who are expecting a tough
test from Jim Cassell and Alex Williams' team.

Swansea's Head of
Youth Development Tony Pennock said in the build up to tomorrow's game:
"No disrespect to the lower division teams but to play a team like
Manchester City will be absolutely fantastic.

"The boys are excited and it will be nice for them to test themselves against that sort of opposition.

"We know in no uncertain terms that it's going to be a difficult evening for the lads. It will be a massive test."

Tickets
are only available on the night at the Swans' Liberty Stadium with
admission prices £5 for adults and £1 for concessions.
