Beechwood 3

Stockton Lane 7

BEECHWOOD never got going in their second division one game.

Stockton took a three-goal lead into the break in a first half that was littered with mistakes by the home team.

The second half saw an even worse start, with Beechwood conceding three more goals in the first five minutes. However their resolve was admirable and even harboured thoughts of a fightback after Peter Thompson and Dean Hughes came on to change the game with goals from Gleave, Pill and Brett.

Stockton added another though to run out comfortable 3-7 winners.
