However, Tom White’s double earned Liversedge a 2-1 win at Prestwich Heys and Hallam won at Abbey Hey in the replay thanks to Daniel State’s penalty.
Well done the pikes, great result, could have had one or two more. Sets it up nicely for Saturday. Expected a sterner test from handsworth if im honest, i’d tipped them to win the league after seeing them end of last season at their place against us. They had some very good young players with a good mix of experience. On that performance I may have to tip us to win it now!
