Crown sunk by hot-shot Sultan

FOOTBALL: ONLY four Oldham Sunday League games survived the miserable wet weather - three of them in the President’s Trophy competition.

Niall Sultan was a hat-trick hero as he helped his Rifle side into the next round of the competition.

They triumphed 4-1 at Crown, as Ryan Hobin was also on target. James Holden grabbed Crown’s consolation goal.

Jack Brocklehurst also netted a treble as he helped High Crompton Victoria to a 4-3 victory at Heyrod. Jack Radcliffe completed Vics’ tally, while Wayne Dean, Ricky Siddall and Jordan Howarth replied for Heyrod.

The only league game came in David Giblin Division One, with second-placed Springhead Libs being held 2-2 at home by third-placed Alt Athletic. Jamie Wilson and Ben Maher scored for the Libs, while Curtis Norris and Ste Barrow hit back for Athletic.



DOM Shiels bagged a super hat-trick as 3D Dynamos triumphed 5-3 at Mount in Division Four of the Huddersfield League. Danny Heywood and Tom Milnes also netted.
