League Statistician Kevin Lawton has reviewed the latest games around the NWCFL and Buildbase FA Vase to find the latest achieved Milestones.
Stats Weekly Update: Sunday 21st November 2021
Just a few milestones this week:
Garstang scored their 200th goal with their draw at Campion.
Chadderton hit their 300th home goal when beating AFC Blackpool, 3-0. and Winsford Utd's 1-1 draw at home to Padiham was their 100th home draw.
Goal Heroes
A goal saver hero to start with this week. Eric Merner, the Eccleshall custodian was called into action when his team held Port Vale 1-1 in the Staffs Senior Cup.
Penalties followed and, stunningly, he saved all five Vale kicks as his side won the shoot out 1-0. I Can't find a record of anyone who has done similar.
Just one hat-trick this week. Jordan Darr hit his second of the season as Charnock Richard beat Litherland REMYCA 5-

So, do defences tire in the second half and it definitely pays to stay to the end of a game, especially in the Premier Division!
FA Vase Stat
Eight NWCFL sides are through to the Third Round, the previous two seasons saw just five teams go through and three seasons back just four teams – so a bumper season so far in the Vase.
