Leeds were without 2nd years McCann and Baxendale and included two trialists in the starting line up besides
Ian Snodins son Jordan.
Monty Gimple is a german born centre back and was player of the year for the FA Independent Schools in 2009 (Don't ask) Leeds appeared to start with a 4-4-1-1 with Poleon up top and Payne behind him.
The first 20 mins were garbage with long balls punted up to the smallish Poleon, the Scunny centre backs must have thought Xmas had come early.
6 mins Poleon shot over
20 Poleon had a shot blocked, Turner's follow up shot was deflected into the net by POLEON 1-0
23 N.Turner shot wide
30 POLEON shot underneath the keeper 2-0
36 Snodin twists and turns past 4 players before crossing to Poleon who slashes into thin air trying to turn and hit the ball
39 Snodin's run and shot hits a Scunny defenders hand, unlucky not to be given a penalty.
41 Cairns reacts quickly to get down low to his left to save at the foot of the post
45+1 Taylor has an excellent run down the left wing, crosses to the back post, Payne scoops the ball over the crossbar
47 Taylor's run down the left, bought down on the edge of the box, fre kick. Birbeck free kick curled too near the keeper, comfortable save.
48 Poleon slices a shot very wide
60 Cairns makes a good save
61 Poleon shot deflected for a corner
69 Dollery shot tipped over the bar by Scunny keeper
71 Payne shot hits the crossbar
73 Scare for Leeds as a Scunny shot fizzes over the bar
78 sub 7 Dollery replaced by 16 Byram
83 sub 11 Birbeck replaced by 17 Lenighan
86 POLEON'S persistance saw him get his hatrick, after nibbling away, chasing the ball and finally getting a shot underneath the keeper
90 Booker shot wide
90+2 Byram curled a shot over the bar
Leeds looked a better side when they played the ball on the floor.Gimple looked composed on the ball and Jordan Snodin had a very good game in the middle of the park
