HURST Green suffered hvo defeats over the week. Last Tuesday they went


down 7-3 at Rimington, who moved closer to clinching the East Lancashire League title, before somehow contriving to lose 3-2 at Worsthome on Saturday. In the derby, a devastating


10-minute spell just after half time, where the hosts scored an amazing five goals, proved crucial. The visitors’ inability to


' i


defend set pieces was a major factor.


Danny Walker, Sam Hayes


took the lead through a superb 25-yard effort by Coonan which flew into the top corner. The visitors doubled their


lead as Coonan’s free kick evaded everyone and found the bottom comer. With only 15 minutes to go,


however, Sam Williams had a goal controverislly disal­ lowed for off-side, and with Green’s players still protesting, Worsthome broke at speed and scored what looked to be a consolation. The home side’s tails were


up and equalised with another controversial effort as a long ball was flicked on to the winger who was flagged off­ side, but ignored by the ref­ eree, and he crossed for the striker, who put the ball into

the empty net. A draw would still have been a good result, but Worsthome cmelly took all three points as, in the last minute, a free kick was floated in, and though Coonan won the header, the ball fell to a Worsthome player, who threw a leg at it and the ball found the net. • DOG Inn beat a shat­


tered Rose and Crown 9-1 to register an eighth-successive win saw them leapfrog them into second place in the Harry Dewhurst Memorial League. Jamie Enefer notched his


fourth successive hat-trick with four more goals, Oli Steele netted twice and Liam Anderson and Liam Boyle had already scored before keeper Calum Mahon completed the rout with a penalty. The cmshing win sets up


Dog for Sunda/s cmcial clash with leaders Church Town at Memorial. Dog go into that match five points behind Church, but with two games in hand. Manager Simon Kerins said: “Every game is hugely important, but it would not be an exaggeration to say that this will be among the most important in our history. The only downside is that, with the best part of 20 excellent play­ ers chomping at the bit to play, it’s impossible to field all of them and I fully understand the frustration of anyone who comes into that category.”

large crowd feasting on some excellent rugby from both sides. The first XV, captained by Oliver


McEntyre, who once again will captain the side into next season, knew they were in for a game during the opening exchanges, with the President’s side taking the majority of territory and possession. Visiting prop Mike Wilyman made


the scrummage his own, while back row Taffy Haynes made a niusance of himself at ruck time, and fly half Mike Livesey marshalled his backs with some aplomb. That said, it was the firsts who


opened the seoring when Peel, playing at outside centre, was fed a lovely ball by Watson and scampered on the out­ side to score a well-worked try. All the President’s men weren’t to

found the smallest of gaps to squeeze through to equalise. The firsts certainly had the stars, but


the men in blue made them work hard for everything, and it was only through sheer persistence that the firsts scored once more, this time with Waddington scoring from his unaccustomed posi­ tion of wing, just prior to the half-time whistle. With so many men to choose
