bit of a boring half.
so took the time to watch some of the u16 match on a nearby pitch.

Must give a mention of the little lady referee,
who had a decent match and let play flow.

 

u16's included the likes of Alex Cairns, Sanchez Payne and James Baxendale who
were named subs for the u18's.
together with 14 yr old George Swan at centre half (Peter Swan's lad), the Turner twins, Birbeck.
Leeds had a good passing game, plenty of possesion in the Forest half. match ended 0-0
