Club AZ 1 High Lane 3
Club AZ‘s miserable start to the season as they lost their third game in a row this time to High Lane at the Mulberry Sports Centre.
Trailing 1-2 at half time they couldn’t turn the game around in the second half and a third from the visitors in the second half killed the game. Jon Blackburn scored for AZ with Luke Campbell, Dave Wilde and Jake Getchevsky were all on target for High Lane.
Juno 0 Poynton Kings 3
Poynton Kings moved into third place with a comfortable victory away to Juno United. Kings’ frontline caused Juno problems all afternoon and Juno’s keeper Jake Lenahan was much the busier throughout the match. The deadlock was broken on twenty minutes but it was a goal early in the second half broke their resolve. Goalscorers for King’s, Andy Wright,Luke Murray and Jack Butterworth.
Mary Dendy 3 Old Alts 1
Mary Dendy made it three wins in a row and stay top of the ECL after a deserved victory against Old Alts. Alts are a stronger team than last season having recruited several of the Vets players and it showed. Henry Finn has added much needed steel in defence and together with Craig Hookham and Adam Officer limited Dendy to speculative efforts from long range in the first half. Indeed it was the visitors who took the lead on thirteen minutes when Dean Dougan scrambled the ball home from a corner. Dendy brought on Chris Hadfield ten minutes into the second half and he seemed to spark the team to life and within three minutes they were level. Matty Martin launched a long throw to Matt Morris on the edge of the area whose shot felled the Alts defender in front of him as it cannoned off his midriff. Fortunately it rebounded back to Morris who gratefully volleyed home for his fifth of the season.

Dendy took the lead on seventy three minutes when Simon Nicolson’s mazy run was brought to an abrupt end on the edge of the penalty area and his free kick rebounded to the resurgent Matt Morris who gratefully crashed home his second of the game.With five minutes remaining substitute Leon White who’d been on the pitch barely twenty seconds made the perfect impact as he dispossesed Alts goalkeeper Dave Howden as he tried to clear the ball near the corner flag and squared the ball to Chris Hadfield who passed the ball into the empty net to seal the victory.

Old Alts Youth 1 Inter Macc 2
Inter Macc striker Ray Warburton made it five goals in three games this season as Inter Macc condemned Old Alts Youth to back to back defeats with their second victory of the season in the league. Now one of only three undefeated clubs this season it’s a promising start for Damien Druce’s charges. Ross Ewing was on target for the home team with Dan Chadwick scoring his first of the season for the visitors.
Poynton 1 Boarhound 8
Boarhound just cannot stop scoring this season and have got off to the perfect start, three games, three victories and sixteen goals into the bargain. It’s going to take a mighty performance to prevent them regaining the title they won so dramatically last season. Poynton were kicking themselves as they gifted Boarhound’s Dave Barratt the opener on fifteen minutes and they never fully recovered. Rick Glen converted a first half penalty but by half time Boarhound already had the game in the bag as they led 4-1. Four more goals in the second half were icing on the cake for the visitors but Poynton were by no means disgraced as there were fine performances by goalkeeper Tom Nixon and debutant Alex Dodgson who came on as a second half substitute.
Poynton Nomads 1 Wilmslow Sports 3
Nomads player- manager Tom Gaskell was left wondering how his side lost this game after dominating play for long periods. ‘We just couldn’t finish, we had so many chances – they had three chances all game…and scored all three!’ Referee Brian Clark took charge as Wilmslow secured their first victory of the season at Bollington Recreation Ground . Anthony Mape scored twice with Sam Bowers adding a third before Mark Toomey hit a last minute conslation for Nomads.
