Back in the dim and distant past of reserve teams we didn’t have 18 man match day squads.
We didn’t play every Tuesday and Saturday, and we certainly didn’t have Mickey Mouse trophy competitions where the first games were in a mini league and the big clubs’ U21s were included
We had a reserve side well into this century and we played two-legged league cup ties and I think the Autowindscreens Shield, in its 90s guise, featured a mini league.
