Does anyone know when the new Under 20 League is starting & what teams (other than all 22 league teams) are entering?
Its starting in September running through to March or April.
Dont know who will be in it yet, expect the usual suspects (as in clubs who've typically entered the U21's).
Apart from the later staring date and the new age limit I expect the format to be unchanged from U21's.
Apparently non-EL teams won't be able to enter this year. http://www.mayoadvertiser.com/index.php?aid=6334Quote:

Yeah i got a worried when I read that article but I've subsequently found out that apparently City retained their "EL status" so they can take part in the under 20 league.Quote:

Probably a ploy to try and force them into the A LeagueQuote:
