Glasshoughton celebrated a high-scoring demolition after easily putting Yorkshire Amateur to the sword.
After last Saturday’s disappointing draw at Nostell, joint manager Lee Vigars promised that his side would one day “give a side a beating”. and his words rang true yesterday.
Brad Kilner returned to the side at right full back and Andy Mcmanus took the place of the absent Adam Walsh in the middle of the defence. Their was also a first start for Jermaine Moyce who replaced the holidaying Andy Horbury. Ryan Poskitt also came back into the starting eleven after injury.
Welfare got off to a great start when Moyce scored his first competitive goal for the club in the 12th minute.
Callum Harrison notched his third goal in three games in the 17th minute when he got onto the end of a Rich Collier corner.
Young Nathan Keightley added two further goals in the 25th and 31st minutes to give welfare a commanding first half lead.
Connor Glavin made his debut for the club as a second half substitute and he scored the fifth goal on 62 minutes.
The only setback for the home side was an 84th minute consolation goal from Adam Shaw.
What They Said
Glasshoughton Welfare joint manager Darren Holmes
“It was a fantastic all round performance today .We looked solid at the back and got the ball down well and played some really good football moving the ball from left to right and causing Yorkshire Ams real problems all through the game.
“Our finishing was clinical and we would have been a match for anyone today. The squad is developing nicely with great team spirit and with four players missing today gives us a great selection headache for next week. Early days, but things are looking really positive.”
