Saturday Match Review

17th February, 2008

Winterton Rangers moved eleven points clear at the top of the Premier Division after a 3-0 win at Parkgate.

Taking full advantage of second-placed Glapwell's postponed home game with Lincoln Moorlands Railway, Lee Mohammed gave Winterton a first-half lead before David Watson and Danny Clarke completed the victory.

Liversedge remained third as their title challenge took a stumble at Armthorpe Welfare, Craig Sugden's own goal on the hour mark giving the hosts a 1-0 victory.

But, fourth-placed Pickering Town kept their outside hopes alive with a 3-1 win at home to Shirebrook Town.

Hallam's charge up the Premier Division continued as they came from behind to beat visitors Maltby Main 4-1 and move into fifth.

Liam Kay had given Maltby the ideal start after eighteen minutes before James Tevendale levelled matters before the break.

Andrew Wood then gave Hallam the lead in the opening minute of the second half before Tevendale grabbed his second and Brady Roberts completed the victory late on.

They climbed above Selby Town who were beaten 3-1 at home by an ever-improving Brodsworth Welfare.

Liam Wilkins, Sean Gorman and Liam O'Neill got the goals for the visitors to stretch their unbeaten run to six games during which time they moved from the bottom of the table to fourteenth.

The side currently in the wooden spoon spot, Glasshoughton Welfare, saw the gap between them and the rest grow despite picking up a good point in a goalless draw at Eccleshill United.

South Normanton Athletic remained in nineteenth but moved four points clear of Glasshoughton with a 2-1 win at home to Thackley.

And, Francis Johnson's 88th-minute strike grabbed Nostell Miners Welfare a point in a game that they had taken the lead in.

Dave Nicholas opened the scoring for them just after the hour mark before two goals in a minute from Adam Slater and Dave Middleditch had seemingly sealed the points for Mickleover Sports.

A seven-goal thrashing of visitors Yorkshire Amateur meant that Dinnington Town's lead at the top of Division One grew to twelve points.

A hat-trick from Ant Lynam, two from Michael Blythen and one each from Matt Haigh and Ben Rosser made it an extremely comfortable afternoon for Steve Toyne's men.

Bottesford Town were replaced in second spot by Gedling Town after they went down 2-0 at Hall Road Rangers.

Goals in each half from Jamie Barnwell and Callum Dransfield condemned them to defeat.

A Barry Payne hat-trick helped Gedling to a 4-1 win at AFC Emley after Max Joice had put the hosts ahead after just two minutes.

Andrew Jones also got on the scoresheet for the visitors as the promotion chase continues to hot up.

Rainworth Miners Welfare lost a little ground with a 3-1 defeat at Scarborough Athletic.

A second-half brace from Richard Medcalf earned them revenge for a loss by the same scoreline in the reverse fixture seven days earlier.

Before that, Ryan Blott had cancelled out Robbie Clarke's first-half opener for the hosts.

Staveley Miners Welfare kept themselves in the promotion hunt as Ryan Damms' 28th-minute penalty moved them up to sixth with a single-goal victory at Barton Town Old Boys.

Pontefract Collieries were cast further adrift at the foot of Division One as they were beaten 1-0 at Tadcaster Albion.

Their nearest rivals, Rossington Main, continued their resurgence with a 3-2 win at Borrowash Victoria.

Nathan Hill and Jason Stokes had them two-up within the opening seventeen minutes before a couple from Tommy Leighton brought the scores back level.

Andy Culshaw grabbed the winner with twenty minutes remaining.

And, Paul Harrison's strike five minutes from the end picked up a point for Leeds Met Carnegie in a 2-2 draw at Worsbrough Bridge Athletic.
