Toolstation NCEL Match Review 2022/23 #35

4th December, 2022

Eccleshill United booked their place in the last 32 of this season's Isuzu FA Vase with a penalty shoot-out win at Longridge Town on Saturday.

The Eagles took the lead in a tight game at their North West Counties League hosts in the 73rd minute through Matthew Sykes but were pegged back as the encounter ended in a 1-1 draw.

And, it was Ryan Toulson's side who ensured they would be in Monday's draw for the Fourth Round that takes place in January as they won 4-2 on spot kicks to keep the Toolstation NCEL flag flying in the competition.

In the Premier Division, the top four were all victorious meaning North Ferriby maintain their eleven-point gap at the summit.

It took the Villagers until the 69th minute to break down their resolute visitors Albion Sports with Thomas Corner finding the net before Oliver Donald secured a 2-0 victory with their second in stoppage time.

Joe Jagger took his season's tally in all competitions to 25 with a hat-trick as Emley AFC won 4-2 at Thackley to keep the Pewits in second spot, ahead of third-placed Winterton Rangers on goal difference.

Rangers were 2-1 victors at next-to-bottom Goole AFC, Luke Anderson with their 43rd minute opener before Zavier Elkin grabbed an equaliser midway through the second period and Josh Walker quickly restored the away side's advantage with what proved to be the winner.

Garforth Town beat visitors Frickley Athletic 3-2 to tighten their grip on fourth spot, Nick Thompson, James Burgess and Dexter Ball with the Miners' goals whilst Elliot Owen and Kofi Appiah got on the scoresheet for Athletic who fall to sixteenth.

A fourth consecutive win for Penistone Church has seen them climb up to fifth, a 3-1 home victory over Silsden AFC who drop below their hosts to seventh.

Cameron Simpson, Nathan Keightley and Reece High netted for Church with Talent Ndlovu's penalty proving a consolation for the Cobbydalers.

An injury-time leveller from Andrew Horbury rescued a point for Hemsworth Miners Welfare who stay sixth following their 1-1 draw at Bottesford Town, Thomas Johnson with the goal for the Poachers who remain just outside the drop zone.

Basement side Yorkshire Amateur are now nine points away from safety as they went down 2-0 at Maltby Main, Callum Walton and Alfie Dodsworth with late goals for the thirteenth-placed hosts.

Brett Agnew and Kieren Watson secured a 2-1 victory for Hallam at Barton Town and a last gasp penalty from Kayle Price saw Golcar United take the points as they won 1-0 at Handsworth.

In Division One, leaders Campion's excellent unbeaten start to the league season came to an end at the nineteenth game as they lost 2-1 to visitors Brigg Town who move up into the top five.

Aidan Day scored early on for the hosts but Martin Pembleton converted a first-half injury-time penalty before Stephen McCarron scored the Zebras' second just before the hour mark.

Horbury Town, who began the day in second place, also tasted defeat as an 87th minute matchwinner from Joe Lumley saw them go down 1-0 at Ollerton Town.

Harrogate Railway Athletic jump above Horbury as they extended their unbeaten run to thirteen matches with a Daniel Thirkell penalty and an injury-time second from Sean Hunter in their 2-0 home victory over Shirebrook Town and the Rail are nine points away from the summit.

There were two goals each for Monosse Kianga and Declan Slater in Rossington Main 5-2 defeat of visitors Selby Town that further cements their place in the play-off zone.

Staveley Miners Welfare drop out of the top five as they were beaten 3-1 by resurgent hosts Parkgate, Joshua Nodder's double helping the Steelmen to a win that sees them move to within four points of safety in the battle to avoid relegation.

Connor Glavin scored twice as Worsbrough Bridge Athletic won 4-2 at home to Swallownest whilst, in Friday's game, Jamie Austin did likewise in Armthorpe Welfare's victory by the same scoreline at Dronfield Town.

And, there were late equalisers by Oliver Lobley in Retford FC's 2-2 draw at Nostell Miners Welfare and by Scott Phillips as Bevelery Town also shared four goals with visitors Athersley Recreation.
