There were 33 goals scored in five Bolton Over 35s Football League games on Sunday and one Division One match was postponed because of a late change of kick-off time which left leaders unable to raise a team for the revised start. With Royal Farnworth being without a game, Little Lever Sports Club Vets went top of the table following their 3-1 away win over third-placed Atherton Town for whom Andrew Miller scored. Matt Carter scored two and Craig Bingham the other for Little Lever to push them to the top. The other Division One game produced eleven goals with visitors Elton Vale scoring seven, but bottom side Turton FC were no push-overs as they scored four thanks to Robert Walsh, Will Bell, Colin Entwistle and Scott McNair netting one each. For Elton Vale, Stuart Telfer and Jon Stephenson each scored a hat-trick while Simon Parkes added one. In Division Two, East Leigh gave leaders Bolton Wyresdale a tough match as they lost their home game by two goals to three, but unfortunately for them, it was an own goal which made the difference. Chris Lowe and Lee Woodward scored for East Leigh while Rob Beatty and Ste Dawson were on target Wyresdale, but it was the own goal which kept the leaders on top, having dropped just two points in their nine matches to date. East Leigh are just off the foot of the table on goal difference over Deans Youth & Ladies Vets who picked up a point from a home draw with third-placed Rogues Wanderers. The game ended three apiece after Rico Ellis-Hall scored a brace and Tom Creasey one for Deans. The scorers for Rogues were not declared. Second-placed Old Boltonians lost ground by losing 3-4 at home to Stoneclough Vets for whom Matt Elliott, Adam Lavin and Gary Peden scored one apiece, but they were out-gunned by Ian Teasdale who scored all four for Stoneclough. |
