NCEL 2009/10 Match Review #59

26th March, 2010

The KoolSport NCEL Premier Division title race now looks to be down to just two teams after differing fortunes for the chasing duo in midweek.

With leaders Bridlington Town not in league action, it was an ideal chance for their closest rivals to catch up some ground.

Second-placed Armthorpe Welfare took full advantage with a 2-1 win at Selby Town to move within five points of the Seasiders but having played one game more.

Jack Debnam put them ahead on 55 minutes before Graham Whitehead levelled for the hosts soon afterwards.

Liam Hardy restored their lead as the match went into its final quarter.

But, third-placed Rainworth Miners Welfare made it nine league games without a win as they went down 3-2 at Hallam on Thursday.

The hosts, who picked themselves up from a 7-1 thrashing at Liversedge on Tuesday, came from behind twice and snatched victory with a last-gasp own goal from Matt Draper.

The Wrens are now sixteen points behind Bridlington and eleven adrift of Armthorpe with seven games to play.

Liversedge's home victory with Hallam, that included an Andy Philp hat-trick and a brace from Jamie Wasley, means that they are now ninth in the table.

Brodsworth Welfare have officially been confirmed as the Premier Division's bottom side for this season after their 6-0 defeat at Arnold Town.

Joe Naylor and Mark Smith had the Eagles two-up by the break before two from Tony Law and one each from Rob Gill and Chris Freestone condemned the visitors to their 30th league defeat of the season.

Next-to-bottom Lincoln Moorlands Railway moved 21 points clear of Brodsworth with their second successive victory.

As in their previous game, it was Ben Good who got what proved to be the winner with six minutes remaining to be visitors Hall Road Rangers, 4-3.

Railway, who just over a week ago looked certain of finishing in the bottom two, have now closed the gap on eighteenth-placed Nostell Miners Welfare to just two points.

And, Martin Pembleton's last gasp winner, his second of the evening, earned Winterton Rangers a 3-2 victory at home to Long Eaton United.

Tadcaster Albion have moved up into second place in Division One with a 2-0 win at Eccleshill United.

A first-half strike from Marc Thompson followed by a penalty after the interval from Darren Brandon has moved the Brewers to within four points of leaders Brighouse Town with three games in hand.

Pontefract Collieries are now up into seventh after a Lee Garside hat-trick helped them to a 5-1 home victory over Askern Villa.

Mark Caine also found the net three times for Parkgate but found himself on the losing side in a dramatic League Cup Fourth Round tie.

The hosts were held to a 4-4 draw in ninety minutes by Dinnington Town with the visitors scoring twice more through Liam Cartledge and Michael Blythen in extra time to progress to the Semi-Finals, 6-4.

Dinno have been joined in the last four by Pickering Town who also won in extra-time at AFC Emley, Ricky Greening with the only goal of the game in the 115th minute.

Bridlington Town are through to the Final of the East Riding Senior Cup after a 2-0 win over Sculcoates Amateurs, Wayne Wallace and Craig Hogg with the second-half goals.

But, Bottesford Town bowed out of the Lincolnshire Senior Trophy at the Semi-Final stage losing 4-2 on penalties at Louth Town after the match had finished 1-1 after extra-time.
