Toolstation NCEL Division One Round-Up (1)
Spenser Sheppard hot streak continued with the late winner as Worsbrough Bridge pulled off a stunning comeback to win 3-2 against Harrogate Railway at Park Road.
Luke Forgione had the magic touch after inspiring his team at half-time when Worsbrough found themselves two goals down.
One of the league’s top goal-scorers Elliot Holmes gave Railway a head-start with the opener.
Dan Thirkell doubled the lead and many might have thought it was game, set and match Railway.
But two quick-fire early second half strikes from Ben Donoghue and Alfred Thompson levelled proceedings before Sheppard popped up with the winner.
Three wins out of four, not a bad start for Forgione and Worsbrough.
Left-back Jamie Allsop celebrated his 100th appearance for leaders Nostell Miners Welfare in the best possible way as Ian Walker’s side destroyed Teversal in a 4-1 away win.
The three points were wrapped up within 32 minutes as Lewis Pickering (2), Anees Younis and Louis Penny-Larter had the net bulging.
Perennial early season strugglers Glasshoughton Welfare continued their fantastic opening bat with a third win in four after Ash Bell’s first half penalty earned a 1-0 success over Retford FC.
Retford blew the chance to rescue a late point after heroic Glasshoughton goalkeeper Sam Riches saved a penalty.
Alex Nightingale’s Swallownest secured their first win of the season at the third attempt thanks to second half goals from Callum Greaves (penalty) and Alex Lill against Dronfield Town.
