Saturday Match Review
3rd February, 2008
Winterton Rangers' lead at the top of the Premier Division grew to five points after their 3-0 win at Armthorpe Welfare.
A first-half brace from Andy Holt added to by a Rob Northen strike on 57 minutes made it a comfortable victory for Peter Daniel's side as their nearest rival slipped up.
Glapwell were surprisingly held to a 1-1 draw at home by bottom side Glasshoughton Welfare who produced a gutsy performance to take a point from Hall Corner.
A Dane Whittleston own goal had seemingly put Glapwell on their way after five minutes but Lewis Wallace's 40th-minute strike upset the form book.
Third-placed Liversedge gained some ground with a 3-1 win at Mickleover Sports opening a nine-point gap between themselves and the side below them, Pickering Town, who were involved in one of seven games in the League that were called off due to frozen pitches.
Selby Town missed out on a chance to move up from fifth as they were held to a 1-1 draw at home to Long Eaton United.
And, they needed an Adam Russell goal on the stroke of half-time to earn that after Courtney Bonnick had put the visitors ahead.
Parkgate climbed to eighth as a couple from Steve Ward gave them a 2-0 win at home to Eccleshill United.
And, Arnold also moved up one place to tenth as they beat next-to-bottom Lincoln Moorlands Railway at Gedling Road.
Mark O'Dea had put the Eagles ahead on 32 minutes before Craig Bridge levelled matters soon after.
Craig Mitchell helped them regain the lead in the second half before Ashley Harrison made sure of the points in injury time.
A hat-trick from Ant Lynam in a 4-2 win over Scarborough Athletic meant that Dinnington Town's lead at the top of Division One stretched to five points.
Lynam is now the league's top scorer with 29 goals in all matches.
Grant Allott also found the net for Dinnington whilst Ryan Morton and Craig Hogg converted for the Seadogs.
Rainworth Miners Welfare climbed to fourth after strikes from Andy Jones and Mark Draper saw them win 2-0 at Hall Road Rangers, making it just one defeat in ten league games for Rudy Funk's side.
Leeds Met Carnegie and Barton Town Old Boys were also climbers after they both picked up victories against the bottom two sides.
Leeds Met moved to sixth with a 4-2 win at basement outfit, Pontefract Collieries, one place above Barton who, thanks to a Gareth Barlow hat-trick, cantered to a 7-3 home victory over Rossington Main.
And, Dempsey Smith's injury-time strike for Yorkshire Amateur earned them a point in a 2-2 draw at Borrowash Victoria.
