Toolstation NCEL Match Review 2022/23 #43

15th January, 2023

Eccleshill United will have to wait another week to play their Isuzu FA Vase tie as heavy rain caused another Saturday of disruption for Toolstation NCEL sides.

Their Fourth Round clash at home to AFC Liverpool has been rescheduled for next weekend after it was one of thirteen games called off - including five in the Premier Division and seven in Division One - due to a waterlogged pitch.

There was still plenty of entertainment, however, in the matches that did go ahead with the top two sides in the Premier Division winning against promotion rivals to further boost their Step 4 ambitions.

North Ferriby stay eleven points clear at the summit after a 2-0 home victory over fourth-placed Garforth Town, Joshua Whiteley giving the Villagers the perfect start in the opening minute before Niall Tilsley sealed the deal around the hour mark.

Winterton Rangers have extended their advantage in second spot to four points after they defeated visitors Hemsworth Miners Welfare who stay fifth.

Adam Barthram's fourth minute opener was added to by a penalty with a quarter-of-an-hour remaining from Paul Grimes to give Rangers a 2-1 win as Ben Gelder's spot kick halved Welfare's deficit late on.

At the other end of the table, Goole AFC won 2-0 at home to Handsworth to open up a five point gap between themselves and the relegation zone.

James Arnold and Samuel Deacon struck in the first half for a priceless victory for the Vikings whilst their visitors drop to eleventh, replaced in tenth by Knaresborough Town who were 1-0 winners over visitors Silsden AFC.

Philip Milsom grabbed the only goal of the game at Manse Lane, meaning that all four Premier Division games were won by the home side.

In fact, Rossington Main were the only victors on their travels in the NCEL, as the second-placed Division One side beat hosts Glasshoughton Welfare 2-0 with Bradley Grayson scoring a goal at the ends of each half.

Main close the gap to leaders Campion to ten points whilst Welfare remain in the basement and four points away from safety.

Staveley Miners Welfare are now just a point from the play-off zone after their 2-0 home win over Brigg Town, Marley Grant and Max Rhodes netting for the Trojans.

And, Worsbrough Bridge Athletic strolled to a 5-0 home win over Dronfield Town to climb to fourteenth, courtesy of a brace each from Alex Hutchinson and Michael Jepps before the fifth came in stoppage time from Kyle Wordsworth.

Meanwhile, only one game went ahead in midweek due to the bad weather and Maltby Main caused an upset in the Quarter-Finals of the Sheffield & Hallamshire Senior Cup.

Aaron Sennett-Neilson netted in their 1-1 home draw with Pitching In Northern Premier League side Stocksbridge Park Steels and the Miners held their nerve in the penalty shoot-out, going through to the final four with a 6-5 win on spot kicks.
