The Voice of Spalding and South Holland
Moulton Harrox Reserves extended their unbeaten record in ChromaSport PDFL Division One to 18 games with a thumping 5-0 home success over Netherton United Reserves on Saturday.
Skipper John Ball, top scorer Martin Sandall, Declan Earth, Tom Elderkin and Bobby Patterson all got in on the act at Broad Lane – making it 17 wins and one draw from their 18 league games so far this season.
Their lead at the top is now 12 points after second-placed Sutton Bridge United crashed 5-0 at rampant Warboys Town. An Elliot Cafferkey hat-trick accounted for Bridge, while Ben Duncan and Dan Moulds also bagged.
Both sides finished with ten men as Sutton Bridge’s Jake Lally and home player Carl Taylor both received straight red cards. Fellow Division One side Long Sutton Athletic saw their game at King’s Cliffe called off.
In the Premier Divison, Crowland Town were crushed 6-0 at ICA Sports as Harley Williams netted a treble.
Down in Division Two, Spalding Town beat Langtoft United Reserves 4-3 at the Castle.
Ashley Wilson (2), Tomas Ragelis and Mark Astley notched for them.
It wasn’t such a good day for Tydd St Mary, though, as they crashed 5-1 at Leverington Reserves. Karl Smith was sent off on 22 minutes with the score at 1-1, with James Woods having given them an early lead.
Crowland Town Reserves also suffered a humbling 6-1 defeat against Ramsey Town at Snowden Field.
Meanwhile, Division Four leaders Holbeach Bank bounced back from last week’s setback to see off Stamford Lions A 2-0 on home soil.
Stephen Coles and Lee Smith bagged for Brett Schlechter’s side, who remain a point clear.
Behind Bank, Whaplode Drove picked up a 2-2 draw at Feeder as they missed the chance to leapfrog them into fourth.
Long Sutton Athletic were beaten 5-1 at home by Premiair, despite Thomas Grantham’s goal.
But Tydd St Mary Reserves stormed to a 7-2 win over Netherton B as Ben Gibbons and Marcus Gilbertson both netted trebles. Matt Stance got the other goal.
Holbeach United A also hit seven, beating Feeder Reserves 7-0. Dan Bergin (3), Taylor Beveridge, Ben Holland, Luke Wilson and Joe Millinson were the scorers.
