This century, I think.
But I don't know who has played at a younger age.

Dave Thomas was 16 when he made his debut, as was another late '60s player whose name temporarily escapes me.
Edit: Eric Probert.

They used to get them in straight from school in the 19th century

It was. I remembered and edited my post. Eric Probert was superb but lost it. Liked his beer.

Is the Sheff Utd game going to end before my bed time?

When were subs introduced? Did Dave Thomas start in his debut game? I can't remember that far back.

I'm sure Thomas and Probert started.

Rowls · Post by **Rowls** » Tue Nov 08, 2022 9:51 pm

Sheffield United had 12 corners and didn't score

Rotherham had to play over 7 minutes of injury time and didn't concede once

Strange, strange times folks. Goodnight!

Yep, looking very good recently. Their recent form might help them keep onto some of their players in January

warksclaret · Post by **warksclaret** » Tue Nov 08, 2022 9:52 pm

Dave Thomas started the game against Everton-the last match of the season. It was roughly the time Alex Elder had a fall out with the club and was outed

Paul Waine · Post by **Paul Waine** » Tue Nov 08, 2022 9:52 pm

90'+7'
Full Time
Second Half ends, Sheffield United 0, Rotherham United 1.

Note 7 mins added this time and Rotherham come away with the win.

Oli McBurnie looks like might be injured

I am sure I read that he has a groin problem and they were trying to nurse him through until the World Cup. Too important to leave out with the looks of it as he has played the last two games.

Paul Waine · Post by **Paul Waine** » Tue Nov 08, 2022 9:53 pm

A good night for the Clarets in both the League cup and the Championship.

Roll on Sunday.

NewClaret · Post by **NewClaret** » Tue Nov 08, 2022 9:53 pm

Sounds like a brilliant night all round. Total domination, good game for CJ & Lowts, McNally got some game time, a goal for Barnsey, Benson MotM and two for Anass. Browny warmed back up too.

Good to have got these guys game time whilst also resting Cork, Cullen, Jay, THB, Beyer etc

Culmclaret · Post by **Culmclaret** » Tue Nov 08, 2022 9:54 pm

Before the panic sets in, didn’t Watford lose at home to Coventry in their last game?

McBurnie is waiting on a hernia op - you're right they are putting it off until the break

Good night all round. Players rested, through to the next round and still top of the league. Just need a couple of key Rovers players to take knocks tomorrow night now.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Tue Nov 08, 2022 10:02 pm

Tremendous evening and hopefully now we can put Saturday behind us and look forward. Whatever we'll have CC footy after Christmas which is novel.

warksclaret · Post by **warksclaret** » Tue Nov 08, 2022 10:03 pm

The Sheff Utd defeat tonight more than makes up for Sunday. Keeps them 3 points behind us, but more significantly its 5 defeats versus our two, which indicates to me more Championship clubs will beat them this season

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Tue Nov 08, 2022 10:04 pm

Someone on their board said he won't be back until at least Christmas. A few games without him could hurt them, hopefully.

No disgrace in that Coventry are the form side in the division having taken 19 points out of a possible 24, just shows how mad this division is as they couldn't buy a win at the start of the season.

hoskinsgoalatswansea · Post by **hoskinsgoalatswansea** » Tue Nov 08, 2022 10:04 pm

So, as long as we don’t lose on Sunday, we’ll go into the World Cup top of the league (+ in the last 16 of the league cup)

Would prefer a 6-0 victory mind

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Tue Nov 08, 2022 10:05 pm

Gillingham have had one shot away at Brentford and drawn 1-1. Now to pens.

Yes O'Hare is a key player for them, be interesting whether they can keep hold of him in the window with their financial woes.

I think Joe Bauer’s is 16 years 10 months, Dave Thomas and Eric Probert were 17 years 1 month. Thomas being 13 days younger than Probert
