Recap

This was a mixed performance from the Development side, a sloppy period in the first half followed by more expected standards in the second.

Nevertheless, it was another good workout in a rare trip down the coast to the Cumbrian village as the new season looms closer.

They conceded the first and last goal of the afternoon and established a 2-1 lead in between.

Manager Brian Dawson felt they were the better team overall but pointed out, “That’s football sometimes and you don’t always get what you deserve from a game.”

Mikey Williamson (inset) scored his first goal for the club and Thomas Houghton also found the target.

Team: Brodie Richardson, Aidan Howarth, Kian Dear, Joe Palmer, Dan Whitehead, Louis Webster, Chad Grisdale, Taylor Hambling, Thomas Houghton, Matty Foster, Mikey Williamson. Substitutes – Ciaran Booty, Ethan Heron (both used).
