Vertu trophy dates

Dates for our 2025/26 Vertu Trophy group stage fixtures have now been confirmed.

Our first Vertu Trophy fixture will take place at Exeter City on Tuesday, September 16th, 7pm kick-off.

Newport County visit the Welsh capital on Tuesday, October 7th, 7:45pm kick-off.

We will host Arsenal U21 in South Wales on Tuesday, November 11th, 7:45pm kick-off.

Will be interesting to see how we approach this.

BBM has gone with a strong team in the Carabao Cup games.

If we play a strong team in this, we should get out of the group.

After that, it's a chance to get to Wembley and win a trophy.

Depends how we're doing in the league I suppose.

Ned,

Birmingham City took it seriously.

I think BBM will as it’s about Winning and Confidence and keeping the feel good factor going

When we play Arsenal U21 in the away fixture, where will we play them? Not at the Emirates surely?

We're playing Arsenal U21s at home. Newport at home too and Exeter is the away game.

U21 teams in this competition always play their games away.
