Leeds United midfielder Jack Jenkins became the latest Whites player to secure a loan move this season, when he agreed a switch to non-league Scunthorpe United until January last week.
He made his debut for the National League North side on Saturday, coming on in the 58th minute at home to Buxton, but it would not turn out to be an orthodox first appearance for his new side. A late Buxton goal put the visitors 2-1 up and when the referee blew this whistle deep into stoppage time amid driving rain, both clubs thought that was the end of the match.
Following this though, the Irons Twitter account posted that the referee had in fact abandoned the game, rather than blown for full-time, as five minutes of added-on time remained.
My main target is to play as many games as I can, and perform in every game that I can.”
Farke lays out Djed Spence demands as timing crucial to key Leeds United call
Attacking flair is what Daniel Farke wants to see from Djed Spence moving forward as he continues to settle into Leeds United life. After completing his loan move from Tottenham Hotspur in the final few days of the summer window, Spence was given a first run out in white last weekend against Sheffield Wednesday.
The right-back only saw nine minutes of regular time after replacing Luke Ayling in the 81st minute of the contest, but he managed to give a good account of himself in front of the expectant Elland Road crowd. He was forced into rearguard action shortly after stepping into the contest and showcased his pace in possession to get forward down the flank on a couple of occasions before the referee brought a frustrating contest to a close.
