The unused substitute for NUFC was Academy goalkeeper Carl Robinson.

Newcastle U21s concluded their pre-season preparations on Wednesday evening with a deserved defeat at the hands of last season's Northern League Champions.

The Brewers begin life in the Northern Premier League on Saturday and were ahead after just six minutes. A long punt upfield from Spenny's trialist goalkeeper tempted opposite number Freddie Woodman to the edge of his box - only to then lose track of the ball and leave home striker Gavin Cogdon to shoot home into an empty net.

United equalised in the 14th minute when a ball was played across the home area and when a defender mistimed a clearance, it fell to the unmarked Tom Heardman who had an easy chance to shoot home.

Moors regained the lead on 57 minutes when ex-Magpie reserve, Dan Taylor, was on hand to knock home at the back post after both goalkeeper and defenders failed to clear a ball as it travelled across the face of goal. Stephen Capper had claimed an assist for that goal and just two minutes later another centre from him out on the left was headed home at the near post by Craig Lynch.

The introduction of Jonathyn Quinn and Greg Olley at that point made only marginal difference to United's powder puff attack and they went further behind with eleven minutes of normal time remaining.  

Another Spenny foray down the left exposed the United defence and Michael Roberts made it to the byline before advancing on goal and shooting beyond Woodman to complete a lousy night for Peter Beardsley's side.
