Trailing 1-0 at half time, the Yellows conceded within 30 seconds of the restart and the hosts added two more goals to complete a drubbing on a concerning afternoon for Paul Carden’s side. The manager handed a debut to former Blackburn defender Patrick Gamble, signed shortly before the registration deadline. There was no real sign of what was to come in the first 10 minutes, with the only half sight of goal falling to Dontai Gabidon after goalkeeper Shane Bland’s poor clearance. A poor clearance at the other end led to the opening goal on 13 minutes, the ball falling to Layton Watts on the corner of the penalty area and he squared for Matty Tymon to sweep home. Michael Woods came within a whisker of making it 2-0 midway through the half, hitting a loose ball on the volley against a post, before Li-Bau Stowell got down well to save from Donald Chimalilo. Carden made a double substitution at half-time, bringing on Liam Brazier and David Morgan for his Yellows debut, but they hadn’t touched the ball and it was 2-0. Connor Smith’s cross from the right was headed down by Tymon for Chimalilo in the centre of the box and he gave Stowell no chance. Two became three on 53 minutes, Watts’ free-kick diverted home by Tymon, who managed to squeeze the ball inside the post despite not making the best of contacts with it. It was a long afternoon for the visitors after then, though they did at least muster a shot on goal when Morgan was denied by Bland. A fourth goal came on 79 minutes, Harley Dawson finding Smith in space on the right and his side-footed effort appeared to be going in before Watts made doubly sure. Three games in to their return to the Northern Premier League and the Yellows have just one point ahead of Tuesday’s home game against Ilkeston Town. Whitby: Warrington Town: Stowell, Melhado, Doyle, Dixon (Morgan), Bourne, Gamble, Gabidon, Daly (Lloyd), Lusiama (Brazier), Harris, Murphy. Unused subs: Waters, Macormac. | ||||||
