Harworth Colliery are thumped by Collingham in Central Midland League

Harworth slipped to a 4-0 defeat to Collingham as Central Midland league North action returned to the Jones Recreation ground in Bircotes, writes John Mushet.

In very windy conditions both teams were trying to adjust to the conditions and on nine minutes a well worked move saw Collingham take a deserved lead.

Both teams had very few chances and half time saw Collingham leading 1-0.

In the second half the wind dropped with Collingham upping their game and continually looking for a way to the Harworth goal.

On 59 mins they scored their second. Harworth had very few chances and were lacking in ideas. Collingham's defence was solid and on 83 minutes a great move down the right saw them crash in goal number three.

They didn't finish there and on 88 minutes fired in goal number four. The full time whistle was a welcome sound for Harworth team who looked dejected with the 4-0 score line. Their next game is this Friday at home to Askern.
