Goals spree for both Ingles and Barrow

IN THE East MIdlands Counties League, Barrow eased to a 4-0 away win at West Bridgford, scoring three of their four goals in a five minute spell midway through the first half. Sean Beaver opened the scoring on the half hour; Zak Ginvert added a second three minutes later, and Ryan Kirk made it three on 35. The home side had Aaron Large and Sam Perrin both dismissed for two yellow cards before Malaki Lumsden completed the scoring.

Barrow might have scored four in midweek, but on Saturday league new boys Ingles crushed Arnold Town 11-1 away at Eagle Valley.

Laithan Hammond scored four times for last season’s Leicestershire Senior League champions, Sean Woolley helped himself to a hat-trick and the rest of the goals were shared between Billy Blackshaw, Dan Jelley, Sam Kee and Lloyd Tapper. Arnold’s sole reply came from a Curtis Millward spot kick.

On Bank Holiday Monday, Ingles beat Ashby Ivanhoe with a 2-1 win in front of a crowd of 164 with all the goals coming in the first 20 minutes.

Sam Key put the home side in front on five minutes and a Sean Woolley penalty ten minutes later doubled the advantage. Sam Carline pulled one back on 19 minutes but neither side could find the net again.

The highest scoring game of the day had flurries of goals at both ends of the encounter and saw Barrow Town beat Clifton All Whites 5-4.

The Riversiders’ goals came from Dan Sheahan, Ben Law and a hat-trick from Zak Ginvert.

This Saturday sees Ingles in FA Vase action at Melton Town while Barrow Town visit Heanor in a league clash.
