Saturday 27 October 2007
Cables players and supporters received a much needed confidence boost with this Unibond Premier League success.
Only 3 minutes had lapsed when Karl Bell received the ball from a corner and found Thomas Moore whose header left the Worksop players motionless. Moments later Worksop pressure forced a corner. Prescot managed to clear the ball off the line as the home side appealed strongly for a goal; however the officials deemed the ball had not crossed the goal line. Ryan Wade then produced an individual goal of the season as he beat four players to shoot past keeper Hernandez in the 27th minute. Worksop captain Steve Hawes rifled a shot that hit the net via the post to halve their arrears 2 minutes from the break.
Prescot's two goal advantage was restored on 52 minutes when Karl Connolly's superb pass enabled Sam McNutt to score.
With the wind at their backs, Worksop created many chances without managing to hit the target. Prescot always looked dangerous going forward with Connolly orchestrating affairs. It was late in the game that Eammon Price sealed the win with his first goal since 21 August to lift Cables up to 15th in the Unibond Premier League table.
Prescot has a re-arranged match on Saturday 3 November at home to Eastwood Town. This is followed by another Valerie Park encounter with Ilkeston Town on Saturday 10 November.
