Club Thorne Increase Chances of Winning the Humber Premier League

Club Thorne extend their lead at the top of the Humber Premier League to 9 points after their 3-1 home win over Recketts AFC. 

From the start, Thorne were clearly the more dominant side, with chances from Joe Pugh and Callum Verhees inches away from giving them a lead within 10 minutes. 

However, Colliery led within the first half an hour, as Joe Pugh put them ahead following a rebound off the post from Verhees’ shot. 

Then, only seven minutes after, Tommy Waud brilliantly placed a 25 yard shot into the left corner following a run which started on the halfway line. 

Despite having a few good chances, Colliery finished the half two goals to the good and looked comfortable in the game. 

Thorne controlled the second half, having many chances early on and they continued to bully the Recketts side throughout the half. Then, in the 73rd minute, Jordan Hall put Thorne three goals up following a game of pinball in the Recketts area. 

Recketts pulled one back in the 89th minute following a slight mix up in the Thorne defence, but it was not enough as that would be the only chance of the game for them.  

Thorne continue their spectacular form and sit top of the table, 9 points clear with just 10 games to go. After the game, we interviewed Joe Pugh, he went on to say the lads are now “on a stream train” and that they have to just “keep going” .
