12 o'clock WBA Training Ground 1 MATT EDWARDS 2 LEE BOOTH 3 AIDEN WHITE 4 JOSHUA FALKINGHAM 5 ANDREW MILNE 6 ADAM WATSON 7 MICHAEL WHITWELL 8 NATHAN CARTMAN (Capt) 9 TOM ELLIOTT 10 WILLIAM HATFIELD 11 SAM JEROME SUBS 12 ROSS WILKINSON 13 ASHLEY WOODHOUSE 14 OLIVER HOTCHKISS 15 CHRIS OVINGTON 13 WOODHOUSE was nominated sub keeper but played for the u16 side Windy West Brom Training Ground tucked down a lane, bit like a Cold Blow Lane. Leeds started the match with a quartet of u16 players making the step up to the next grade, White, Whitwell, Watson and Hatfield starting the match. White and Hatfield have already been involved in a couple of Reserve matches recently. This left the u16 side a little under strength and it was more like WBA U16 V Leeds u15, with WBA winning 2-0 2 Elliott clattered by West Brom centre back 5 15 Ovington replaces 9 Elliott 10 Whitwell cuts in from right wing, and his left foot shot is well saved by Dan Lloyd-Weston in the West Brom goal. 11 Whitwell does well to battle away and square the ball to Cartman, who shoots over 38 Long kick against the wind from Edwards, knock on by Whitwell, Ovington shot from edge of the box to put Leeds 1-0 up 41 Brom keeper makes another excellent save from a Whitwell shot 42 Hesitation in Leeds defence between centre backs and keeper sees WBA forward nip in and lob ball over Edwards into the Leeds net 1-1 45 Leeds up the tempo late on with 2 successive corners 46 another Leeds corner due to the kids dropping my trust watch into a muddy puddle the times are approx 50 Leeds try and play offside but WBA score with a shot from edge of the area 2-1 down young Adam Watson not being too best pleased with the ref and linesman 55 14 Hotchkiss replaces 10 Hatfield 76 Leeds lose a bit of shape and discipline at the back, big West Brom forward ghosts in at back post to loop header over Edwards to put WBA 3-1 up 77 Cartman and Hotchkiss obviously wanting a bit more passion are bellowing at their team mates 78 Hotchkiss free kick, ball deflects up, Whitwell heads goalwards for little Josh Falkingham to sneak in at the back post and bundle the ball over the line , to drag the game back to 2-3 82 Hotchkiss free kick 25 yds out, Hotchkiss special, bang, over the wall into the net 3-3 83 12 Wilkinson replaces 3 White, with Milne switching to left back Photo: Action Images Please report offensive, libellous or inappropriate posts by using the links provided.
