15TH AUGUST 2006 ASHTON ATHLETIC 3 DAISY HILL 1
Ashton celebrated their first win back in the North West Counties League against local rivals Daisy Hill, as a first half strike by Paul McVeigh, a second half own goal and a cool finish from Simon Gallanders secured the three points for the Latics.
The opening goal was the pick of the bunch with a tremendous through ball from Danny Jarrett that found gareth Weigh on the right, who delivered a pin point cross for Mc Veigh to finish left footed across the keeper
Daisy Hill had suggested a possible revival after a cross come shot found its way into the top corner minutes before half time but this did not dampen the determination of Ashton to push forward in the second half to claim the win.
Man of the Match for Ashton for the second game on the bounce was skipper Steve Rothwell, whilst the Daisy Hill top man was striker Craig Naylor.
The only drawback on an excellent victory was the loss of centre half Mike Watson with ankle ligament damsge half way through the second half and it is hoped that Mike will make a speedy recovery.
On Saturday Ashton welcome Bootle FC to Brocstedes Park for a 3pm kick off.
