27/04/10 vs Wooldale Res (a)


Diggle secured a well earned point in the jungle that goes down as an excuse for a football pitch in this part of Holmfirth.

Brown put Diggle on the scoresheet with an exquisite lob from a through ball by Fitzgerald (37 minutes).

Wooldale equalised 3 minutes later with a glorious header from a corner.

The second half was a little better as both teams adjusted to the long pampas and it was Diggle that would have the best of the chances to take all 3 points.

Fitzgerald hit the bar with a left foot shot and then contrived to hit both posts with a right foot scorcher only to see the ball run free to the keeper.

Simpson would miss a penalty, hitting a soft shot at the "right height" for the keeper.

Diggle were happy to keep their season's unbeaten record intact.

MOM (Joint) Rhys Thomas, Craig Brown, Billy Marshall
