Hylton CW(3rd) 6(Robertson 3,39,43 Hill 53,78 Eyo 61)Wearside League Division 2 MD41.30pm koAtt.25hc Hylton took a three goal lead at the break with a hat-trick of sorts by Jack Robertson. He fired in a right foot shot in the 3rd minute, followed by a cross via the defender, then an effort from outside the box which went through the 'keepers legs. Jarrow responded early in the second half with a good finish from Leon Hewitt, but the away side regained control with a well placed effort by sub Ethan Hill, followed by a dribble and shot from the edge of the box by Edidiong Mfon Eyo to make it 5-1. Hill was on hand to grab his second before a late burst from the home side, with Brandon Smithwhite firing in and more good skill from Jarra's best player Hewitt, to make it 3-6 at full time.
Just a quick 6 mile drive along to Jarrow only 15 minutes door-to-door.Surprised to find Toon fans Glenn Wallace and Kenny Rogers look alike Alan at the game. They sandwiched in this game between the early Academy derby, which Newcastle won 2-1 and the shite dished up at St James Park at teatime. I also went to the Brighton match which ended my long sequence of not seeing a 0-0 draw.
