U-16's v Leeds
After a 4-3 victory over Newcastle on the artificial pitch at Carrington the previous week...it was back to grass football and the United's U-16-side came from behind to draw 2-2 with Leeds at Wetherby yesterday. United took the lead in the first half through Mitchell Bryant....only for Leeds to equalise. The score at half-time was 1-1.
A mistake in the United defence allowed Leeds to score early in the second period but a good goal from substitute Jason Lampkin restored parity and gave United a deserved draw...although a victory would not have been undeserved.... Final score 2-2. With both Gary Woods and Cameron Stewart both injured....United fielded a very young team.... Team: Niki Bulmer, Scott Moffatt, Joe Dudgeon, Matthew James, Oliver Gill, Michael Potts, Mitchell Bryant, Oliver Norwood, David Williams, Danny Philliskirk, Nick Ojose Subs: Reece Brown (2), Jason Lampkin (10), Gary McMaster (7) Scorers: Bryant, Lampkin A couple of points of interest...... Oliver Gill is David Gill's son and played well.....a very tall central defender Reece Brown is Brown's younger brother.....same laid back style and looks exactly like Wes! |

Wow, thats quite impressing. Mitchell Bryant, Oliver Norwood, David Williams and Gary Woods have all played some min for the U18s, right? Are every single one of them 1990s? The name Nick Ojose also ring a bell, dont now why though.
Next time I am traveling to Manchester, I would really enjoy watching either the U16, U18 or the reserves (one of them must have a home game at the same time as the first team), are the stadium far from OT? |

Sounds great. I have to consider this seriously. Man Utd vs Liverpool U18 sounds perfect, since I hear a lot about the Liverpool youngsters by norwegian Liverpool fans (if this Hammill guy - probably in the reserves now - is half as good as they claim he is, Pennant should watch out).

Thomas and William Mellor.. I read something about them a couple of months back..
Thomas is the oldest one, and is a left sided midfielder. They must be 12 - 15 years old..? |
