Youth Team Set For Swindon Cup Clash

Posted on: Wed 18 Nov 2009

ORIENT'S youngsters head to Swindon Town on Wednesday evening for their FA Youth Cup sponsored by E.ON second round tie.

The O's will face Swindon for the right to take on Milton Keynes Dons in the third round after the Buckinghamshire side saw off Bishop's Stortford on Tuesday.

Andy Edwards' side defeated Bromley in Round One, when goals from Cestor Mike and Louis Crowther helped Orient come from behind to beat the non-leaguers 2-1.

There was no such hardship for Swindon in the opening round, as they thumped Yeovil Town 6-0 to set up the County Ground meeting with the O's.

The Robins will provide Orient with a stern test and they currently sit second in the Football League Youth Alliance South West Conference, having won five of their seven league games to date.

Orient reached the third round of last season's competition, beating Boreham Wood and Wycombe Wanderers before Watford ended their cup run.

The game takes place at Swindon's County Ground, with kick-off at 7pm. Admission is priced at £3 adults and £1 concessions.

A full match report will appear on leytonorient.com this evening, with highlights available to Orient Player subscribers.
