PREVIEW Oxford United U18 v Gillingham U18

Oxford United under 18s continue their Merit League Campaign with a home game against Gillingham on Saturday.

The Merit League combines the top five clubs from the Youth Alliance South East and South West Divisions and the U’s welcome a Gills side who currently top the table.

United have won one and lost one of their two games and Coach Pablo Haysham told us

“We did well against Portsmouth last time out and want to carry that on. It is all about building for next year at the moment so we will have a young squad again with a number of under 16s steopping up and getting used to playing against slightly older sides which can only help their development in the long run.”

The game takes place at the Bangkok Glass Training Centre at 11am
