Watson scores a virtuoso goal.

Hate this competition. We're a proud club that has existed for more than 100 years. We don't exist just to give Aston Villa's kids a game.

ForeverAddickted

Been poor from Villa tonight, compared to when we played them a couple of years ago

Definitely more of a Pre-Season feel to the game.

aliwibble

Tyreece taken out on the halfway line. Villa's 47 gets booked.

Agreed. That’s why you go out there with the intention of beating them comprehensively.

Villa coming down our left, Asiimwe having to peg itto catch up but Ness is covering. Then they come down the right and put a cross in, luckily the forward who has a free header can't make contact

Their number 47 with a petulant foul then refuses to go to the referee to pick up his booking. 

I'd send them off for such insubordination 

CL_Phantom

Am I right in seeing Charlie Kirk scored 😯 

aliwibble

Ness concedes the corner, taken short, Leaburn clears with a cheeky backheel, the ball comes back in but there's an offside.

I think I’d rather get beaten by some Brummie children than fucking Crawley tbh

6 of our player could have played if this was an u21 game.  We were only one player short of fulfilling the same criteria they have to.

Carry on this way and would be a nice touch to let Molyneux have a half, see what he is like...

sam3110

And it's 4, Leaburn copying Watson's goal

aliwibble

4-0 Leaburn

Callumcafc

Leaburn unplayable. 4-0 before half time

soapy_jones

You all scoffed at my 0-9 prediction.  I was of course using the ancient Taiwanese method of score keeping, home side last, very respectful...

Ahem.

Top of the group as it stands. Wemberleeeee

Really hoped we would lose all our games in this comp & get knocked out. You can see what the general public think by looking at tonight's attendance. 

Really a waste of time. Except for my son who is picking up some readies for do the music tonight. 

eastterrace6168

4-0 Leaburn this is far too easy, and must be strange to be so far ahead...

sam3110

It's been like men against boys tonight.

But it's actually boys already having to play a men's game against boys

Addickted2U

Good build up play and Leaburn scores. Very cool finish. 

aliwibble

Did the shot take a little bobble off the defender's foot, or was the keeper slow to react again?

Cafc43v3r

Awful competition letting our 19 year old striker getting game time and scoring goals.

Against his peers.
