THERE was yet another postponement last night as inclement weather continued to affect the region, but two of area’s the semi-pro sides did see action.
Three clubs had scheduled fixtures in the Toolstation Northern Counties East League, and Premier Division Liversedge had the most entertaining of encounters at Bottesford Town.
Sedge took the lead twice, either side of going a goal down but had to settle for a point as their hosts bagged a late equaliser.
Brandon Kane gave Jonathon Rimmington’s men a 15th-minute lead but Thomas Spall levelled before the break.
Bottesford took the lead thanks to Danny Boulton’s 55th-minute strike but Kane bagged his brace ten minutes later.
Sedge must have felt that they were on the way to three points when Joe Walton put them back in front with less than ten minutes remaining, but Wayne Greaves made it 3-3 as he netted in the penultimate minute.
Eccleshill United made it back-to-back victories in Division One with a narrow win at Winterton Rangers.
The home side were only two points behind the Eagles before the game but an early goal for Matt Waller gave Eccleshill a 1-0 lead that they held, despite having midfielder Andy Cooper sent off in controversial circumstances.
The Eagles’ neighbours Campion were frustrated by a postponement.
They should have hosted Selby Town, and their pitch at the sportsbulk.com Stadium was declared fit after a lunchtime inspection.
A mid-afternoon downpour put the game in doubt, however, and it was eventually called off at tea-time.
