Northern Premier League Round-Up 

Premier Division 

Liversedge star Paul Walker

Paul Walker’s late winner handed Liversedge a 3-2 victory at Whitby Town and their first three points of the campaign.

Walker’s free kick was the coup-de-grace on a topsy-turvy game.

Marcus Giles placed Whitby ahead early on before Jack Stockdill and James Hurtley fired ‘Sedge in front.

Harry Green levelled close to half-time and that’s how it remained until Walker’s heroics.

Three goals in six late second half minutes allowed Guiseley to erase their opening day woes and win 3-1 at Morpeth Town.

Adam Haw, Lewis Hey and Jake Cassidy led the fight-back.

Ali Aydemir scored a hat-trick for Brid who played with ten man for most of the game as Jack Griffin was red carded in the first half.

A rare goal from Jordan Lemon rescued Stocksbridge Park Steels a share of the points from the 1-1 draw with Brighouse Town.
