We are already Professional Development League North champions, but Carlos Corberan’s young Whites side are not at the end of the road just yet.
Before the season draws to a close, they still have to face Crystal Palace, and there is the small matter of the Premier League Cup Semi-Final against Newcastle to deal with, which will take place on April 23 at Guiseley’s Nethermoor Park.
Our Under 23s were also in action on Monday night, facing off against Ipswich Town’s best youth offering, who travelled to Elland Road only to leave on the back of a 3-0 thrashing.
Among the scorers in West Yorkshire were Clarke Oduor, Gaetano Berardi and Ryan Edmondson, while Kamil Miazek was rarely tested at the other end of the pitch.
It was a rare sight to see Berardi notch his name on the scoresheet, and his efforts did not go amiss on social media, either, even though he featured for less than a half of football.
Thankfully his withdrawal was not due to yet another injury, but purely tactical, with the £675k-rated defender expected to be named on the bench when the first-team face Preston North End on Tuesday.
And when the official club Twitter account shared that the 30-year-old had found the back of the net, this is what some of the fanbase made of it…
