Stats Update #28

With only twelve league fixtures completed this week, thanks Dennis, there was a distinct lack of milestone activity, however… 

When Sam Knowles of AFC Darwen hit the back of the net in the 21st minute of their 3-0 home win against Holker Old Boys, it was the clubs 650th league goal and on Wednesday night, Runcorn Town conceded their 550th goal when Hanley Town scored in the 78th minute as the sides drew 1-1.

Goal scoring heroes this week:

Just one hat-trick this week. Trailing Northwich Victoria 3-0 at half time, Scott McGowan hit three in the second half to rescue a point for 1874 Northwich in front of a new seasons best crowd for the 19/20 NWCFL season of 557.

One that was missed last week, Richard Tindall hit three for Cheadle Heath Nomads in their 4-1 win at Alsager Town, the first hat-trick by a Nomads player in the NWCFL.
