Ormskirk & District Sunday Football League

Division One

Bar Du Fay 0

WYNSTAY have been more than a match for every team they have played this season.

Ritchie Lang notched the first goal and Nick Ferris and Ian Smith finished the job in the second-half.

Meadows 1

Windy Bar 1

WINDY Bar had their goalkeeper to thank for gaining a point, in a game that was dominated by the Meadows.

NEWLY-PROMOTED Phoenix faced an under-strength Kestrels, and their hard work and determination came close to causing the day’s surprise result.

Steven Tym and Gary Hall cashed in on some atrocious defensive mistakes to give them a two-goal lead by the break.

Paul Welsh pulled one back for Kestrels from the penalty spot early in the second-half butKevin Hall made it three to Phoenix.

Welsh again reduced the arrears then equalised with his second penalty. K Hall put Phoenix ahead once more before Terry Burghall levelled.

With minutes remaining Tom Hughes put Kestrels ahead, only to see yet another schoolboy error give Kevin Hall his hat-trick with seconds left.

Inn Village v Fantail postponed due to waterlogged pitch.
