NPL Division One East Round-Up
Luke Mangham’s double earned Stocksbridge Park Steels a second consecutive victory as Lee Thompson’s men stunningly beat Yorkshire Amateur 2-0 at Bracken Moor.
Masterminding the latest win surely puts interim boss Thompson in the driving seat to be Chris Hilton’s permanent successor.
Mangham volleyed home Nat Crofts’ cross for the first half opener.
Mangham then hit a goal of the season contender with 18 minutes to go to seal it.
Leon Mettam was in-form Frickley Athletic’s last minute hero as Frickley Athletic pulled off a superb 2-1 win at Worksop Town.
A draw had been on the cards until Mettam struck.
Joe Stacey’s first half goal for Frickley had been cancelled out by Steven McDonnell’s penalty.
Pitch perfect Liversedge made it five victories from five with the 3-1 win at Pontefract Collieries.
Jack Stockdill, Ollie Fearon and Nicky Walker scored for ‘Sedge.
Jack Greenhough was the Colls goal-scorer.
Freddie Sass netted the dramatic injury-time winner as Tadcaster Albion secured their first win of the campaign.
Paul Quinn’s men won 3-2 at home against Pickering Town.
The winner came just minutes after Will Taylor thought he had claimed a point for the Pikes.
Eddie Church and Junayd Cassius-Gill had given Tad a 2-1 half-time lead.
Alhassane Keita was Pickering’s other ‘scorer.
Brighouse Town also won for the first time this season as Javelle Clarke’s double saw them record a 2-0 win over Ossett United.
