Graham Nicholas’ Garforth Town completed an almost perfect November by winning 4-2 at Staveley Miners Welfare in the Toolstation NCEL Premier Division.
With new signing Ryan Carr in their side, Garforth raced to a 3-0 lead by the 46th minute through Curtly Martin-Wyatt (2) and Andy Hawksworth’s (Hawksworth’s goal is above) goals.
Staveley pulled one goal back, but Logan McDaniel added a fourth for Garforth before a second Staveley consolation in the last minute.
Glasshoughton Welfare twice threw away a winning lead in the final ten minutes of the 3-3 draw with Maltby Main at Leeds Road.
Glasshoughton recovered from an early Maltby goal with Matt Donnelly’s equaliser on the stroke of half-time – his first goal for the club.
Dalton Harris then put Glasshoughton ahead on 78 minutes, but Maltby levelled with four minutes to go.
Welfare’s Striker Hilliard Serrao then looked to have stolen the points for Glasshoughton in the 89th minute.
However, Brian Cusworth salvaged a point for Maltby in the dying embers of the game.
