Dinnington Town 2 - 0 Crowle Colts

Another 3 points. 

Where to begin after this afternoon, 2 penalties, 1 scored, 1 missed and a red card for good measure. 

Dinno came in to the game unbeaten since the away defeat to Crowle a few weeks ago with the visitors once again stopping Dinnington from playing football, they seemed to have got a knack of doing this. 

The first half was a frustrating affair with nothing getting going for the home side, loose balls and so on. Crowle could have taken the lead but for an outstanding stop by Josh Branch low to his right knocking the ball on to the upright and gathering. At 0-0 it was looking like one of those days for the Yellows. 

Finally Dinno got the breakthrough, the ball in the Crowle area was put away by Sam Foulds to give the home side the lead. The goal was a welcome relief more than anything as it looked to calm the players down. Dinno took the advantage in to half time. 
The second half started with more intent from the home side, things started to come together a little more. Dinno were rewarded for their hardwork and awarded a penalty midway through the half which Sam Foulds put away and not long after a second spot kick came along, this time Foulds hit the bar. Dinno were still looking for more, hitting the post a further two times, Foulds once again in the thick of it and was unfortunate not to have his hat trick after heading against the upright. The game was drawing to a close when Crowle were reduced to ten after a horrendous challenge. 

After the final whistle the players made their way over to thank the supporters for today. 

Another three points for Dinno on what set out as a frustrating afternoon.

Dinnington Town v Sutton Rovers

Tuesday 16th  November sees the visit of Sutton Rovers to the iCompare Phoenix Park for a fixture that was originally planned as an away game for the weekend just gone.  Dinno come in to this game on the back of a mixed bag of results, a couple of defeats in the last few weeks and the all important wins along the way, this is a league where anybody can beat anybody on the day. Along the way the 100% record was ended by Kiveton with a 1- 2 reversal, a game where many a missed opportunity ultimately cost Dinno the game, however a spirited performance prior to the Kiveton game saw the boys battle for a 2-1 victory against Clay Cross after going goal behind shortly after half time but a moment of brilliance from Brandon Ashmore in the dying minutes got Dinno over the line.  Good results have come also with convincing wins over Askern Miners and Staveley Reserves and a good old 1 - 0 over a dogged, young Sheffield FC Reserve sides. A week ago at Thorne the boys were well worth a point again

Despair at the death for Dinno.

A Point on the Road An afternoon where Dinno came in to the game on the back of six straight wins and one where the run came to an end, still a point earned but on the whole a difficult afternoon, one that could've been much worse but for some poor finishing and a couple of top drawer saves from Branchy.  The first half was a laboured affair, a slow start yet again and far too many loose balls were the order of  the day and it was a fairly frustrating affair with the yellows struggling to anything together. The opening quarter of an hour was very sloppy but take nothing away from the hosts, they were making it difficult for Dinno.  The first real chance of the game fell to Jordan Turner but he saw his effort saved and a follow up blocked before a weak header was gathered by the Kiveton keeper. Kiveton were stopping Dinnington playing with the yellows struggling to get down the sides and in behind and the frustration was clearly showing despite the best efforts of skipper Brad Hanso
