ON a wild day in Cumbria, the Reserves finally came off second best to their hosts, despite leading at the interval.

1-0 Danny Carlton (4)
1-1 Mike Carvill (14)
1-2 Jamie Reed (16)

2-2 Kevin Gall (50)
3-2 Shaun Vipond (61)
4-2 Kevin Gall (82)
4-3 Andy Fleming (83)
5-3 Kevin Gall (90)

It was a second half hat-trick from former Wales U21 striker Kevin Gall which proved to be our undoing after Mike Carvill and Jamie Reed had given us a 2-1 advantage going into the break.

It was a close game throughout and United only took a two-goal lead right at the death, with the Reds throwing men forward in search of a leveller.
