Brodsworth 1 Kilnhurst Colliery 5

In the Sheffield Association League, Brodsworth were beaten 5-1 by Kilnhurst Colliery at Brodsworth on Saturday.

Kilnhurst did most of the attacking, but Brodsworth went ahead first while the Kilnhurst defence was inclined to do too much short passing in front of goal.

A dissenting Taylor away to equalise. Hepplewhite put Kilnhurst in front.

The second are poses played very well and all the good work by Dung worth and senior kept them out.

Further goals came to Kilnhurst from Hoyle (penalty), Taylor and Frith, who has played his last game for Kilnhurst before signing with Sheffield United.

Hepplewhite was a tower of strength in the defence
