NCEL 2009/10 Match Review #60

29th March, 2010

A Liam Hardy penalty moved Armthorpe Welfare to within two points of KoolSport NCEL Premier Division leaders, Bridlington Town, on Saturday.

The spot-kick was converted on 65 minutes to give them a 1-0 win at home to Parkgate to keep the title chase very much alive, although Bridlington, who did not play at the weekend, have two games in hand on their rivals.

Third-placed Rainworth remain nine points behind Armthorpe after they were 3-0 winners over visitors Liversedge, their first victory in ten games.

Craig Mitchell and Neil Grayson had them two-up by the 22nd minute before Massiah McDonald made sure of the points with a quarter-of-an-hour remaining.

Thackley, who are fourth, won by the same scoreline at Long Eaton United although the contest was a lot closer with two of their goals coming in injury time.

Fifth-placed Scarborough Athletic's hopes of a top four finish were hit as they were held to 1-1 draw at Maltby Main after they had taken the lead on five minutes through Bill Law.

Chris Dickman levelled for the hosts halfway through the second period.

Shirebrook Town have dropped into the bottom two after losing 1-0 at Lincoln Moorlands Railway, the team that were there at the start of play.

Ben Good netted in first-half injury time to move Railway up to eighteenth.

They are two points ahead of Shirebrook alongside Nostell Miners Welfare who boosted their survival hopes with a 5-0 win at home to basement side Brodsworth Welfare to move up to seventeenth.

They led by four goals by the interval with goals from Tom Hope, Josh Hope, Graham Marchant and Matthew Denton before Marchant grabbed his second and their fifth after the break.

Adam Walker's 77th-minute strike was enough to earn Hall Road Rangers three points in a 1-0 win at home to Pickering Town.

Hallam came from two goals down to draw 3-3 with visitors Selby Town, Wesley Pierce and Lee Naughton earning them a point after the Robins had seemingly picked up the win.

And, Winterton Rangers climb up to seventh after their 4-1 victory at home to Arnold Town.

The Division One title race took another twist with two of the top three losing.

Second-placed Tadcaster Albion were the only ones to taste success as a Mike Braithwaite hat-trick helped them to a 4-0 home win over Eccleshill United.

They are now one point behind Brighouse Town with three games in hand after the leaders lost 1-0 at home to Pontefract Collieries, Sean Hammonds with the vital strike on 32 minutes.

Leeds Carnegie, who are third, remain five points off the top as they were beaten 2-0 at Teversal.

Colin Cockerill struck twice, once from the penalty spot, to move Teversal up to twelfth.

Staveley Miners Welfare kept themselves in with an outside shout of a top two finish with a 5-1 victory at Yorkshire Amateur, Michael Lyall with a hat-trick for the Inkersall Road side who are fourth.

AFC Emley's promotion ambitions virtually ended as they lost 3-1 at the ever-improving Glasshoughton Welfare and they are now fourteen points away from the top two with five to play.

Bottom side Worsbrough Bridge Athletic were victorious for only the fourth time this season as they won 2-1 at Askern Villa, John Billups with what proved to be their winner on the hour mark.

Bottesford Town were 2-0 winners at home to Appleby Frodingham whilst Barton Town Old Boys beat hosts Grimsby Borough 3-0 and Hemsworth Miners Welfare shared the honours with visitors Rossington Main in a 2-2 draw.
