Robinson isn't listed there but is definitely gone, he's been for trials at a few clubs.

Ahmad Benali has apparently switched nationalities to Libya as they want him to play for them. He got capped by England youth but obviously his chances of playing for the senior squad aren't great so this isn't a bad choice. Really hope he has a good career after being released, a big blue and seems like a nice guy.

We're participating in the U15 lion city cup later this month

As well as this we are in the CD Javea Tournament, we're playing Valencia tomorrow.

I also think the u16s won a tournament in the last few days going of a few tweets and u14s are doing well in one at the moment.
 
I personally can't wait for this, it will make youth football a lot more interesting and competitive and maybe make kids less impatient about getting to the first team as it looks more of a natural bridge from youth to first team.

The Premier League is set to breathe fresh air into the world of Reserve Team football by launching National U21 and National U18 leagues. The aim is to ensure young players (hopefully primarily English) are actually playing football…not rotting away somewhere on a bench.

English Youth Football Changes
- The U21 Premier League Reserve League will take place at weekends.
- Premier League Reserve League matches will take place between Friday-Monday, therefore allowing bench players the opportunity to play “high quality” football.
- The aim is to launch Premier League Reserve League in time for the 2013/2014 season.
- There will be a limit on the number of overage players allowed to be fielded.
- Both U18s and U21s football will become national programmes under the new system.
- Training programmes will be aligned from the first team down through U21s and in turn down to the U18s.
- The new U18s League will force the abolishment of the Premier Academy League.
- More top English clubs will also be participating in the NextGen Football Series in 2012/2013.
- The U21 League will mandate at least two home games be played in the parent club’s home stadium.
- The rule of three U19s being allowed to play in youth fixtures goes away.
