Stakesby Arms Football Club.........

Stakesby suffered at the hands of a foggy Oliver's Mount to crash to defeat in their first game back since early december as 3 second half goals gave Riskers the points.
The first half was evenly contested with Fish in the Arns goal pulling off two point black saves, first from Steele's sliced clearance which he tipped over the bar, then to deny the home striker whose header looked destined for the top corner. Mark Jones and Mike Kilpatick also denied Riskers with headed clearances as Stakesby held firm to the half time whistle.
The second haf saw Stakesby dominate the early proceedings and it was no suprise when they took the lead on 55 minutes when the ball fell loose to Ian Smith 25 yards as and he lashed home an unstoppable shot intot he top right hand corner for 1-0.
The same player almost made it 2-0 3 minutes later when his freekick went narrowly over with the away team dominating.
As has been the case thought so many times this season, Ar,s shot themselves in the foot when miscommunication between keeper and defence led to the softest of equalisers to hand Riskers a lifeline at 1-1.
The away side led on 70 minutes when a cross deflected off Steele and flew into the roof of the net past a helpless Fish, as Riskers rallied.
The game was sealed when referee Mickelwaite gave the strangest of freekicks against the away side, and this was converted when Fish parried the first effort to give the hosts a 3-1 lead with 16 minuts remaining.
Stakesby battled and Brennan had 2 guilt edge chances to reduce the deficit but failed to beat the keeper on both occasions as the Arms crashed to their 3rd defeat out of 3 on Oliver's Mount this season.
