As it was Brooklands 2s first loss of the season, it came as a big shock to find the team struggling massively at 2-1 down in the last 10 minutes, especially after being 1 up at half time through a break away finished by Andrews, with a little help from the Whitley keeper.
.
The aggressive attacking press demonstrated by Whitley Bay saw Brooklands squeezed into their own 25 on many occasions, their only outlet being a counter attack, which seemed panicked and lacking decisiveness. The game ended in a 4-1 defeat which the team will be looking to improve on by looking ahead towards next weeks game against Formby.
