WEARSIDE League
by MALCOLM PRATT
WITH most sides on cup duty, only one league fixture went ahead and the outcome
had a bearing on the top of the table.
Ryhope CW faced a difficult challenge at Kirkbymoorside but came through
unscathed when an only goal by Lee McMahon on six minutes earned them three
crucial points.
The Wearsiders moved into second place, level on points with leaders Easington
Colliery who have two games in hand on their nearest rivals.
Easington meanwhile, had little difficulty reaching the second round of the
Monkwearmouth Charity Cup.
A hat-trick by Paul Taylor was the feature of a 4-1 victory at Silksworth. Chris
Hall was the other marksman while Eoin Shannon claimed a consolation for Steven
Smith's team.
Six ties went ahead in the League Cup. After showing improvement in their last
two games, Boldon CA were hopeful of defeating Stockton Town but it was the
visitors who came out on top in a seven-goals thriller.
Joe Hinchley (2) and Scott Hume had them well ahead at the interval but Chris
Robertson and Mark Williams threw CA a lifeline.
James Ward struck at the other end but Robertson netted his seventh goal in two
matches to set up an exciting finale. Boldon pressed relentlessly but the
Teessiders held on for a 4-3 victory.
Hartlepool led through Ian Davies at the break but paid the penalty for failing
to convert numerous chances. Cleator Moor Celtic staged a strong second-half
rally to romp home with goals from Craig Scott (2), Craig Padley and David
Williams.
John Richardson (2) and Danny Lee eased Willington home against Darlington
Cleveland Bridge who led at the interval courtesy of Paul Legg and Andrew
Caldwell.
David Turner (pen) and Shaun Sagar were Annfield Plain's matchwinners at Prudhoe
Town for whom Andrew Clarkson equalised.
Andy Porritt and Billy Millington, with a brace, appeared to book Redcar
Athletic's place in the next round but Wolviston hit back with two strikes from
Kallum Hannah and in a grandstand finish, Redcar just made it.
Ashbrooke Belford House exited at Jarrow who won with a 119th-minute goal from
Peter Kane. Dean Patton (pen) had given the home side the lead which they held
until a minute from the end of normal time when Chris Charlton levelled.
