ArseWeb - Reserve Team Page 1999/2000

Contents

Last update: 22 May 2000


Match reports, where available, are linked to from dates in the fixtures/results list below.

Home games at Highbury, kick-off 1900, unless otherwise stated. ie games from November to end of February are at Borehamwood, presumably to give the hallowed Highbury turf a rest.

The official Arsenal web site, AFCi now has a reserve team page here, with a fixture list and some match reports.

Arsenal reserve team appearances 1999/2000

Last updated 3 May 2000

In the following table figures in brackets are goals, figures after the plus sign appearances as substitute. In the second column, an S indicates player is also member of 1st team squad, a Y indicates a youth team player, T indicates triallist or unknown status. Otherwise player is only a member of the reserve squad.

There is a new reserve competition this year, the Premier Reserve League, apparently split into north and south divisions of 13 teams each, with the numbers made up from relegated teams from the previous two seasons.
