Town exited the FA Youth Cup in the fifth round this evening following a 4-1 defeat against Watford.

Adem Atay's Town side found themsevles behind inside five minutes as Jayden Bennetts finished impressively with his left foot.
Watford's Ryan Cassidy then bagged a brace approaching the half-hour mark, his second coming from the penalty spot.
Hughes gave Blues a glimmer of hope when he struck in the 34th minute.
It remained that way until half-time but with 65 minutes played Bennetts netted his second to send Watford through.
