NPL Division One East Round-Up (1)
Ollie Fearon put the wind up the sails of the so-called title favourites Marske United with a double to hand Liversedge a 2-1 win at Clayborn.
Matty Tymon’s volley gave Marske the lead on the stroke of half-time.
‘Sedge responded with the equaliser just two minutes into the second half thanks to striker Fearon netting from close range.
The winner was found in the latter stages.
Joe Walton put in the hard yards to create the chance which Fearon finished.

Liversedge: Porter, Porritt, Field, Harris, Tarangadzo, Harris, Fearon, Stockdill, Walton, Atkinson, Walker. Subs: Raw, Cyrus, Grant, Kenny, Daly.
Liversedge’s next opponents Pontefract Collieries lost 4-1 at Dunston.
The Colls looked set for a top afternoon in the North East when Mikey Dunn placed them ahead after some great play between him and Scott Smith midway through the first half.

Two late goals compounded the misery.
