Worksop Town last night brushed aside Gainsborough Trinity in a 4-1 thrashing. Josh Carpenter opened the scoring on twenty minutes. Harry Dunbar and Igor Mlynarski both scored in quick succession to make it 3-0 five minutes after the restart. Ben Bool pulled a goal back for the hosts but the Tigers quality prevailed as on the stroke of full time Mlynarski netted his brace in spectacular fashion as he saw his 30 yard wonderstrike nestle in the top corner.
Prior to the game the venue was switched to Sheffield Hallam University Sports Park. Jay believes this may had a slight impact on the way the Tigers played. ‘We don’t play long ball, we play out from the back and the pitch helped no one really. We couldn’t be a direct as we wanted to be. Obviously it was a small pitch, width was fine but it was the length that played a part being a lot shorter but I think it was never going to be a sparkling game of football just cause of the conditions and the surface but I think we had to grind out a result and that’s what we did’.
Jake Woodward made his first start in the league for the Under 19s and produced an impressive performance in the absence of Callum Fielding. When questioned about how crucial have two good keepers, Bownes stated ‘it’s a good thing and it’s a headache for me but a good head ache. In terms of Jake, I’ve always had faith in him, Jakes been patient and he’s a bit younger than Cal but I believe in both of them and whoever I put in will do a good job. Cals made that step up playing for the first team and Jakes got to fill in when needed and he did that brilliantly today, he made some great saves, his kicking was good so yeah I’m pleased with his performance'.
Last week Igor Mlynarski and Harry Dunbar were signed up for the first team linking up with other Under 19s promoted like Callum Fielding, Luke Smith, Will Sutton and Alex Boyd. ‘So from my point of view and Lee will back me up on this cause it’s his philosophy as well is that even if we lost every game this year, our objective is to develop our players ready for the first team so if their doing that and Ryan see’s something in those players then for me I’m doing my job. I would like them to get a chance, I know it’s never easy at the level they are at and they need to be eased in but they’ll be in and around the squad and able to pick up good habits. It’s pleasing for me as a manager, it’s pleasing for us as a coaching team as we’re not a results based club, we’re a development club and if we can get five or more players into the first team then we have done our job’.
