Wednesday, 21st Jul 2021 23:45 by James Ager
Town s U18 side continued their pre-season preparations with an entertaining 2-2 draw in a friendly against May & Baker on Wednesday evening with goals coming from Jack Manly (pictured) and Gerard Buabo.
The hosts took an early lead in just the third minute when a long throw into the Town box by Abidemi Lamina was met by Carl Patten, who looped his header over Lewis Ridd in the Blues goal and into the net.
Adem Atay s side hit back on the quarter-hour mark when Manly was bundled over in the box by Toluwa Dada, and the diminutive frontman stepped up to confidently beat keeper Jack Riddell from the spot.
