Dave Abrahams 3 Posted 27/07/2021 at 22:52:47 Steve (1) thanks for the link Steve, it looked like a very young Everton team playing against men, great winning goal from our ex player. Steve Ferns 4 Posted 28/07/2021 at 12:25:33 I thought the third choice keeper, zan luk Leban, the 18 year old Slovenian had a good game and could do little about each of the goals. The first two bad luck for him and the third was a belter and he had no chance. Tony Everan 5 Posted 03/08/2021 at 21:48:51 Thanks for the link, Steve, I agree Leban did well. Carlisle looked fit and ready to start their campaign so the young lads had a great workout. When we were winning 2-1 our No 9? missed a good chance he should have connected with 9 yards out. The late winning goal was a humdinger, hats of to Mampala.
