Glacklin blow for FA Youth Cup tie
Date published: 27 November 2015
A HOME tie against Bournemouth is young Athletic's reward if they beat Morecambe in round two of the FA Youth Cup at SportsDirect.com Park tonight (kick-off 7.45pm).
The under-18s must overcome a catalogue of injuries to progress as coach Tony Philliskirk is without several key players, including leading scorer Brendy Glacklin (hamstring).
Philliskirk said: “There are more players in the treatment room than there are on the training field at the moment and I just can’t believe it.
“Jake Hargreaves and Brad Kay are back training this week so they might be forced into action.
“Brendy Glackin is going to be out for a while so that’s a kick in the teeth."
Admission prices tonight are £4 adults and £2 for over-65s and under-18s. All supporters will be housed in the George Hill Main Stand.
