York Minster Engineering Football -  Premier League -  25^th August 2012

 

Riccall maintained their impressive unbeaten start to the season with a 4-3 win at York RI, their first League win at New Lane since October 2005. Goals from Andrew Addison, Michael Braithwaite and a Wayne Brooke penalty (that’s 3 in 3 for Brooke) saw Riccall race into a three goal lead at the break though the hosts pulled a goal back early into the second half through Mark Woodward and should have reduced the arrears even further but  saw their penalty saved. Jamie Sedman added a fourth for the visitors before Nick Hutchinson and Woodward added late goals for RI.  Old Malton made it three from three with a 2-1 win at newly promoted Selby RSSC. After a goalless first period the defending Champions struck twice in two minutes, firstly Liam Preston produced a delicate touch following a free kick and shortly afterwards Jon Newton finished off a 5-man passing move to slot the ball home. A rare defensive error from Old Malton gifted the Selby a goal back but Old Malton held out to extend their unbeaten run to 32 games. Wigginton entertained Rowntrees looking to extend their unbeaten home run to 9 matches and against the side that were the last team to win at Wigginton. At the break the result could have gone either way as Tom Coates opener for Wigginton was cancelled out by the visitors just before the break but the second half produced an avalanche of goals and all into the Rowntrees net as Kev Butler hit a hat-trick against the side he played for last season to add to goals from Lee McQuade (2),  Dan Zambeli, Matt Tiplady, Dave Wilstrop and the pick of the bunch from Josh Hutchinson as Grasshoppers won 10-1. For the second time this season Terrington conceded a late goal to deny themselves even a share of the spoils. Both sides converted early penalties, Danny Bulmer for Glory and Gary Newton for Huntington before Chris Dyson latched onto a through ball from James Edmund to put Huntington in front though before the interval Bulmer bagged his second of the afternoon to level the game,   With the game looking as though it would drift towards a draw a cross from Newton saw Dyson react the quickest and his all important touch gave Huntington their last minute winner.  Dunnington extended their unbeaten run to 9 games as they recorded their first win at Hamilton Panthers since January 2009. The game was quickly over as a contest with Tom Richards,  who also scored in Dunnington’s previous two games, scoring a first half hat-trick as Dunnington led 5-0 at the break and eventually winning 9-0. John Andrews, Simon Castle, Jimmy Wilmoth, Josh Tattersall, another Richards  effort and an og completed the rout.   Easingwold recorded their first away win since November as they won 2-0 at  Poppleton.
