In some slippery conditions at Longcroft, the Braves were up to take on the East Hull visitors. Kurt Pelham took a fine catch to start the game with conviction. East Hull ran strongly and put pressure on the home side’s line. Despite some bruising tackles East Hull broke free and went over for an early lead. Play resumed with the same conviction and Joe Wardill took a sky high kick…
Town See Off Rangers at Norwood
Town made it five in a row on a sunny afternoon at Norwood. However the gloss was taken off this win with the sad injury to midfielder Jay Custus who suffered a broken leg mid-way through the second half. Once again manager Dave Walton had to make changes to his team, bringing Sam Overton and Craig Lamplugh back into the side, moving Winston Winn to right back and Jonny Kershaw…
Perfect 10 For Hodgsons as Foster Scores Four
Hodgsons FC made it a perfect 10 wins from 10 league games with a win against a rather poor Long Riston side. The last time these two sides met was only last season in the cup when Hodgsons beat Long Riston 8 – 1. After this match Riston will hope they don’t face Hodgsons for a long time after conceding 16 goals in just two meetings. Hodgsons currently top the…
Rangers Self-Destruct as They Hand Victory to Withernsea
The curse of the Manager Month award struck again as Manager Healey saw his side lose out to the odd goal in thirteen after only hours earlier collecting the plaudits after his team completed a magic October with five wins out of five. With keeper Bryce away at a Bar Mitzvah, Moley relied on youth in goal and this seemed to unsettle the defence who endured an error strewn afternoon…
Beverley 2nds Crush Medics at Beaver Park
Beverley 2nds continued their great form with a comfortable win over Hull Medics. Beverley struggled to get up to full speed in the first 40 minutes, but it all went right with a superb second half display. With good movement and quick passing they took Hull Medics apart and notched up another big score, winning 71 – 5. This was another top team performance from Beverley. Credit must also go…
Bandits Steal The Points at Beaver Park
The Bandits started brightly in the first 15 minutes and were looking comfortable, but as the game went on Scarborough grew in confidence and early in the second half drew level at 12-12. This game could have gone either way, but in the end it came down to who wanted it most and it was the Bandits who claimed the points 17-15 in a very even game. Pictures by Paul…
Falcons Win Close Game Between Beverley Whitestar Sides
The Beverley Whitestar Falcons (wearing orange bibs) came out as 1 – 0 winners over the Beverley Whitestar Hawks. A second-half goal from Yasmine Shepherd was enough to win and maintain the Falcons’ 100 percent start to the Girls’ U12 Division 2 League. The players all know each well as both teams train together. Falcons’ manager Anthony Green was delighted with the result and was quick to praise the Hawks,…

More People to be Caught in Inheritance Tax Trap
The number of people caught in the Inheritance Tax “trap” is set to rise over the next four years.

Piwinski Becomes ‘Three’Winski
In what was a most bizarre match, Hodgsons made it 9 wins from 9 after putting 8 goals past Brandesburton, but worryingly conceded 4 goals at the other end. There was never any doubt that the Tanners would pick up all 3 points on their travels, as just after the half hour mark they were leading 4-1. Jordan Dexter opened the scoring with a looping header on 20 minutes. Then…
Vintage Town Performance Moves Them Up the Table
Manager Dave Walton once again had to shuffle his pack for this game with five first team regulars missing through injury. Town started the game kicking up the hill and into the wind, and Bridlington fully intended to utilise the elements by launching long balls deep into the Town half. Huge kicks from the Brid keeper were causing problems for the Town defence, with Jay Custus and Rich Jagger struggling…
