Two of Albion’s youngsters were involved in dramatic games for their respective loan sides over the weekend.
Midfielder Jamie Andrews completed 90 minutes for Grimsby Town who fought back from 2-0 down to snatch a 2-2 draw at Forest Green Rovers in Sky Bet League Two.
Kyle McAllister’s brace had the hosts in a commanding position at The New Lawn, but a duo of strikes from Donovan Wilson inside the last 25 minutes earned the Mariners a point.
Great spirit to come back from 2 down! We’ll keep improving👊🏻 @officialgtfc https://t.co/89tbZmBUjG

Elsewhere, teenage striker Layton Love successfully converted Brackley Town's first spot-kick of their FA Trophy shootout victory over Stafford Rangers.
The Albion academy graduate played the full 90 minutes at Marston Road, with the tie going straight to penalties following a goalless draw.
Love stepped up to take the maiden penalty and calmly gave the visitors an early advantage.
Brackley went on to win 4-2 on pens to book a spot in the last 32.
Layton scores.
