Loan watch: Williams stars in Torquay's win over Frome

11 December 2023

Multiple young players have been in action over the last seven days for the respective loan sides, with Theo Williams being the star of the show as he bagged a brace for Torquay United.

Kicking off this report with Williams, who featured in two games this week for Gary Johnson’s side against Weymouth and Frome, in which they managed to pick up maximum points. In the second game, the young striker bagged his brace in the 4-1 win with identical finishes shooting from right to left, finding the bottom left corner on both occasions.

Moving on to another player, this time at Witton Albion, now as Tom Hoyle also picked up six points from two games as they first went away to Nantwich Town, where Connor Hughes and Taylor Kennerley grabbed the goals in that one, before they hosted Hanley Town, beating them 2-0 thanks to strikes from Jim Lawrie and Hughes once again.

It was a return from injury for forward Will Russ at the weekend, after missing Hyde United’s Cheshire Senior Cup win over Alsager Town in midweek, as he came off the bench 55 minutes into their game against Bamber Bridge on Saturday, which ended up honours-even, with the score being 2-2 come the final whistle.

Three of the six players weren’t in action at the weekend for various reasons as both George Morrison and Billy Jones didn’t have a game for King’s Lynn Town as they had a free week in their schedule, whilst Pat Boyes and FC United of Manchester saw their game against Marine at the weekend be called off due to an unplayable match surface.
