27-03-20: Worksop Town (a) 0-2 : Midland League : 24/34

Match Report: Sheffield Star Green 'Un: 27th March 1920:

WORKSOP TOWN v LEEDS UNITED

Having won their last three matches, Worksop took the field against Leeds United and some hope of adding to their laurels. Worksop lost the toss and were able to take advantage of a fairly strong breeze. Ayton kicked off before 3,000 spectators, and in the first minute Lindley had a chance,but the lively ball beat him and his shot went over. Worksop had most of the play, though Webster was once in a tight corner. Ultimately Lindley got an open goal, after Rounds had left his charge, but again he could not control the ball and the shot went over. A great move by Worksop saw Lindley pushed over the ball, but Mercer got in a capital centre which Lindley headed just over.

Half-time score :-

Worksop Town 0 goal Leeds United 0 goal

Kodger converted a lovely centre from Lindley, after thirteen minutes and later W. Frogatt added another with a long shot.

RESULT:- WORKSOP TOWN 2 goals LEEDS UNITED 0 goal
