Wednesday 8th November - AFC Emley 0-1 Frickley Athletic

A Goal from Mark Ward three minutes after half time earned the Blues a 1-0 win at AFC Emley in the Sheffield & Hallamshire Senior Cup this evening. The win came at a cost with Jon Hood being sent off after 65 minutes for bringing down Wayne James outside the box.

Billy Heath made a few changes to the side by moving Danny Moore to right back, bringing Adam Pollock in at left back and Mark Crossfield onto the right hand side of midfield whilst Steve Kennedy returned to the side after injury and Martin Thacker was available to make his first appearance in midfield alongside Calum Selby.

Frickley started the game positively with Rob Pell having a lob from just inside the box well blocked by the Emley 'keeper after 3 minutes. However, Emley went close themselves 7 minutes later but Kitson Gayle side-footed his effort wide of the right hand post. Thacker then saw his free-kick half cleared as far as Selby some 25 yards out but his first time volley was punched away by Graham McLachlan.

The second half began in much the same way with Pell seeing his close range shot blocked at the foot of the post following a corner on 46 minutes but 2 minutes later Frickley took the lead. MARK WARD found himself clean through with only McLachlan to beat  and he made no mistake. Pell then flashed a 25 yard drive just wide before a swift Frickley move saw Paul Rickers have a low 20 yard shot pushed around the post. The game changed somewhat on 65 minutes when Kennedy's short back pass let in Wayne James who was brought down by the out-rushing Hood some 30 yards out. Hood was promptly sent off with Ward taking over in goal. Twelve minutes later Emley were also reduced to ten men when Terry Taylor was sent off for a second bookable offence.
