Central Midlands Alliance Roundup for November 4th

MIDWEEK MATCHES

Perhaps the most unsurprising result of the season so far came at Goldthorpe on Tuesday night when Dearne & District as they faced Glapwell. With the home side having scored 68 goals and boasting a 100% record and the visitors having conceded 74 and still searching for their first point of the season the 7-1 scoreline came as no surprise. The opening goal came in the 7th minute from Tommy Needham. Glapwell then kept their opponents at bay until the 42nd minute when Needham got his second. Glapwell secretary Liam Wajs came on at the break, and made an immediate impact, scoring after just two minutes on the pitch. The next 15 minutes proved to be decisive as the hosts ran in five more. Alex Wilkinson opened the floodgates on 50 minutes, with further goals from Curtis Wilkinson (2) Lance Friedrich with Needham completing his hat trick, the last 25 proving goalless.
Yorkshire Main’s task was just as difficult, their Sheffield Senior Cup tie bringing them up against current holders Emley who currently stand in second place in the Northern Counties East Premier Division The match finished 8-1, Main’s goal coming in the 74th minute from Ash Cantrill.
