An early blow to Rossington as Dan Lodge was stretchered off with a bad injury to his knee after falling awkwardly on 14'. Not many chances in the game but what there was came the way of the home side. Vernon converting two before the break, but could have had a couple more in the second half that on another day would have gone in. 5 minutes into the 2nd half the visitors got back into the game when after a mix-up in the middle of the park allowed Robinson to fire across Appleby. Liam Charlton, who was a 58th minute replacement after MacDonald pulled up holding his hamstring, pulled a shot just wide of the upright before Stokes had a couple of chances that the keeper had to be at his best to deal with. The points were tied up on 86' when Stokes latched onto a great ball to drop a shoulder and send the keeper to the ground as he fired into the roof of the net. To finish Hemsworth off, after a bit of handbags between the players, the referee saw something that made him reach straight to his pocket that saw John Impey taking an early bath.
