Worksop suffer a battering at the hands of table leaders Pontefract Collieries.
The Tigers made the 35 mile journey up to Pontefract Collieries and returned with a spanking and no points as Pontefract ran out 5-1 victors.

Worksop started the brighter though as they went a goal ahead when Booth played the ball out-wide to Mitch Husbands to cross perfectly for debutant Alec Denton, who signed from Handsworth Paramore on Monday, to execute a left footed volley into the back of the net.

Pontefract were level just after 20 minutes when the ball was headed into the path of Ash Emmett who smashed his shot into the top corner past a hopeless Jon Kennedy.

Emmett bagged his brace ten minutes later when he was sent through on goal to finely place the ball over the Tigers keeper.

Denton almost levelled when his chipped effort was headed off the line by the Colls right back after the keeper was beaten in the air by Matt Booth. Subsequently Wankievicz saw his volley attempt palmed over by Ryan Mussellwhite following a corner.

Pontefract added a third as Jimmy Williams’ free header from the corner flew past Kennedy who was routed to the spot and the hosts went in at halftime 3-1 up.

Pontefract swept any signs of a miraculous Worksop comeback under the carpet as captain Mark Whitehouse unleashed an unstoppable effort from around 30 yards to make it 4-1 seven minutes after the restart.

The game was put to bed when prolific striker Eli Hey rifled the ball past the Tigers number one just before fulltime and the game finished 5-1.
