After a spectacular 8-4 win over Spurs' U18s, the Baby Whites march on to the quarter finals

And there they will face Nottingham Forest's U18 side. The match is set for next Wednesday, February 27th, at the City Ground (where the senior side drew earlier this month). In the league the Baby Whites are struggling within the Elite Group, and have gotten 3 losses in the first 3 games of Phase 2 of the season, putting them 7th out of the 8 teams which make up the table*. Nottingham Forest occupy a lower league than Bolton, but are currently 1st in their table, so this may prove a tough test.

Tony Kelly and David Lee will hope to see their academy side build upon their impressive demolition of the Spurs U18s to advance in the Cup. Tickets will be £3 for adults and £1 concessions, and kick off is at 7pm. Good luck Baby Whites!
