League action ...

Shirland retain top slot
Riddings Rovers 3 Shirland Miners Welfare 4
Home scorers: I Hursthouse, D Hegarty (2), G Brown
Away scorer:

Shirland' game yesterday against Rddings Rovers was one of the hardest games we have had this season against a side that can beat anyone on their day.

   Riddings took the lead early on with a well-worked goal, ten minutes later Shirland got back on level terms through Ian Hursthouse. ÊShirland's goal only madeRriddings stronger as they came at Shirland from every angle making keeper Daz Shaw work very hard.

   But against the run of play Dale Hegarty scored to give Shirland a slim 2-1 lead.

   Riddings soon took control of the game and with some stunning play scored to put the scores level, eight minutes later ÊRidding's hard work payed off again as they were awarded a penalty kick which they scored to put the scores at 3-2 to Riddings.

   The final ten minutes saw an injury-hit Shirland side fight back, they never quit and threw bodies forward in an attempt to salvage something from the game.

   Hegarty lead the fight back with a perfect top corner goal to put Shirland level with three minutes left, Shirland got the winner with another goal from Gaz Brown who just can't stop scoring.

• MOM: Shirland's Dale Hegarty.

Sunshine day on The Dimple
Laburnum Saints 6 Ashbourne 1
Home scorers: D Wildgoose (2), P Denton (2), R Austin, M Carson
Away scorer: Phil Clowes

Laburnum Saints came into the last game of the season looking for three points but missing key players due to injury and cricket commitments.

   After some good defending and cool shooting Danny Wildgoose opened the scoring with a rifle of a right foot shot. 'Oscar' Austin scored with a looping header midway through the first half and Peter 'Miss' Denton scored before the break.

   The industrial defending of Dan Killick, Dan Gregory and home MOM Michael Charlton was breached after half-time with Ashbourne scoring just after the whistle. A lot of goal mouth action came for the rest of the game with 'Kit' Carson netting his first for a few years. Danny Wildgoose got the fifth with Pete Denton eventually finding the net again after squandering chance after chance.

   Hard work from the midfield of Carson, Chris Slack and Austin saw Saints run out on top.

   A special mention goes to Saints unused stand-in keeper Ben Tomlinson who played very well. He kicked well, shouted well and picked the ball up once! (Out of the back of the net!!).

    In all it was a good game played in good spirit Ð Bring on the Summer!

• MOM: Saints' Michael Charlton. MOM: Ashbourne's John Hagan

Press Round-up
Shir-land coveted Cavendish Cup
3 May , 2010

High-flying Shirland Miners Welfare lifted the coveted Cavendish Cup with a 9-0 drumming of Matlock-based Harveys Bar at South Normanton Athletic's ground on May Day Monday.

   Matlock & District Football League's 105-year-old trophy was earned with goals from Richard Harrison, man-of-the-match Steven Wright (2), Dale Hegarty (4), Gareth Brown and Ian Hursthouse.

   Despite being under enormous fixture and injury pressure, Shirland dominated the match from start to finish with Harveys never really threatening although they defended stoutly for the opening twenty minutes.

   But with three first-half goals there was never really anyway back into the match for a lacklustre Harveys who found in hard to cope with Shirland's pace and movement.

   The match was marred by a second-half skirmish which saw Shirland's Paul Hardy and Harveys' Edward Roberts take an early bath. Shirland's Steven Boot also got his marching orders after receiving a second yellow card, but even with nine men Shirland were just too good on the day for their opponents.

   Referee Malc Whittaker, who officiated over the Cavendish Cup Final, collected the Stuart Baker Shield as Referee of the Year while AFC Lea Holloway's Shaun Bott won the League's Player of the Year award. These were presented before the game and extremely well-deserved by both who are great role models for the game.

   In the league on Saturday Darley Dale Lions triumphed 5-1 over Tibshelf Community. Goals came from Mark Ashton, Danny Stephenson, Aaron O'Neill (2) and Paul Godfrey while the visitors replied with a single strike from their man-of-the-match John Hart.

   Victory left the Lions two points behind leaders Shirland who had hit top slot last week and secured their margin on Saturday with a closely fought 4-3 victory on the road against Riddings Rovers.

   Shirland's goals were from Dale Hegarty (2), Gaz Brown and Ian Hursthouse.

Firmly in third place Matlock Town Youth had a comfortable victory over AFC Lea Holloway at Lea Green with goals from Dave Whitworth, Sam Hodgson, Steve Pardey (2) and Chris Johnson.

   Holloway replied with a Gary Siddall strike but they never really coped with Matlock's pace and pinpoint passing. Some breathtaking triangular movement has been a feature of Matlock's game this year and their third place finish for the second successive season is pleasing for them as their brief has been very much to 'blood' young players, giving them encouragement to improve and raise their standards.

   Laburnum Saints went into their last game of the season on The Dimple missing key players due to injury and cricket commitments, so they were delighted with a 6-1 win over Ashbourne. First-half goals came from Danny Wildgoose, Richard Austin and Pete Denton.

    The industrial defending of Dan Killick, Dan Gregory and man-of-the-match Michael Charlton held firm until just after half-time when Ashbourne's Phil Clowes scored but more Saints goals from Wildgoose, Denton and Martin Carson earned the points.

• League fixtures on Saturday (8 May, 2010) include Darley Dale Lions v Shirland Miners Welfare, Tibshelf Community v Hilcote United.

Shirland comment ...
Facing up to
the pressure!

The anxiety will kick in first, then the suspense as they gear up for the arrival of Kings Arms. Pulse rates will go through the roof, counting down the minutes until Wednesday's Matlock & District Football League shootout at Stonebroom.

   Shirland Miners Welfare have to hold their nerve from here – it's down to a straight fight for first place.

   Shirland started yesterday's game missing four players with bad injuires and finished the game adding two more players to that list – and the whole season hangs in the balance with manager Dave Thurnham sweating over the fitness of severel key players, justÊ90 minutes away from the prospect of being crowned champions.

   Manager Thurnham said: "The Cavendish Cup final tomorrow night may have come round too quickly for some players but we will fight right to the final whistle, win or lose everyone at Shirland will be very proud at what these players have done this season!"
