FT: Leeds 1-0 Harrogate Town

Harrogate boss Simon Weaver told BBC Radio 5 Live: "I'm immensely proud, you never know how it’ll go. Proud to march on together, proper arena. Slight concern, top players coming at you with full force of their crowd. To a man they raised to the challenge. I hope they take that sink or swim moment forward in their own careers.

"We probably should have had a penalty, disappointed but that could have brought another level from Leeds. It would have been nice but put aside any disappointment tonight.

"We're a relatively new club at league level, new fans, even if they’re Leeds fans through. Need them, more noise. We don’t expect 35,000 at our gates, can’t fit them in, we would like 4,000.

"Loved every minute. Was looking at the clock, we were ticking off targets as we went through the game. We were in it throughout. Confidence up, shoulders back, means the world. Won’t sleep, not for worry, just enjoying the occasion."
