Harworth Colliery FC 1-1 Denaby Main JFC (3-4 pens)
County FA Senior Cup 26 Aug 2026

After last Saturday's tepid performance the Main put in a display full of tenacity & work rate with some good football alongside it. A competitive match saw both teams looking to attack with the first opportunity of the game falling to Denaby, a move down the right saw a cross from Liam Squires with the ball being passed around the penalty area as the Main looked to get a shot on goal before the ball was cleared. Luke Watson was played clear but he saw his shot save by the keeper with his legs but somehow the referee gave a goal kick!!!! At the other end AJ in goal made a good save to keep out a shot on the turn by Jay Jay Taylor. Josh Epton fired in a fizzing shot which went wide of the left post and a long throw in from Sam yates had the home keeper juggling to catch under his crossbar. For Haworth there was a teasing left wing cross that AJ was thankful to catch as a home forward looked to head in to goal. The closest effort to a goal came when Haworth got clear and saw a shot hit the post, the ball bounced along the goal line with AJ quick enough to race across the goal and gather as another player looked to pounce on the loose ball. Marcus Edwards then tried his luck with a hooked shot though this went wide. The half finished as it started with both sides going forward with purpose as each team tried to get on top.

The first effort of the 2nd period saw Taylor fire over for the home side with Liam Squires having a similar effort drift wide but on 55 minutes the Main took the lead, a long throw in was only half cleared, the ball reached Josh Epton who rifled in a terrific shot, in fairness the keeper made a super save but the ball rebounded to Liam Squires who fired in the rebound to give the game a 0-1 score line. After a free kick was punched away by the Harworth keeper the ball reached Ellis Hancock and he tried a hooked shot from the edge of the penalty area, the home side responded with Billy Stafford firing a shot over the bar before Joseph Ezekiel-Hart tried an outrageous effort from near the half way line, after the ball was cleared he launched a shot that bounced once in the penalty area, bounce and looped up with the keeper scrambling to gather under his crossbar. There then followed a period when Main seemed to drop deeper towards their own goal and this encouraged the home side to move forward at pace and this allowed them to draw level when Joe Green curled in from 20 yards with 10 minutes to go. And so to penalties, after 4 penalties each it stood at 3-3 but then up stepped Denaby old boy Cam Till who put his spot kick against a post leaving Alfie Downing the chance to win the tie which he did after converting his penalty for Denaby to run out 4-3 winners as the main moved into Round 2.

Ecclesfield Red Rose 4-1 Denaby Main JFC

This is definitely one to forget as the Main put in a rather lethargic display to lose 4-1 at newly promoted Ecclesfield Red Rose though there were 2 late goals for the home side to reach that scoreline. Long balls over the top proved to be Denaby's achilles heel with the first three goals coming from balls played over the top and home forwards able to chase the ball down before goals were scored. The first of these saw a ball played long with a home forward racing for the ball as keeper AJ came out to clear, both players seemed to reach the ball at the same time with each blocking the others touch however the ball broke nicely for the home player to make a pass along the penalty area to a teammate who made no mistake as he rifled the ball into goal despite the efforts of Main defenders racing back to stop the danger. Goal number two was a ball played over the top, Main appealed in vain for offside, not given and another Rose player was free to slot the ball into the goal. As far as Denaby was concerned there wasn't too much creativity on display with their best efforts coming from long throws and set pieces. From corners Ellis Hancock and James Bytheway both went close with headers while Jack Earp saw his free kick sting the keeper's fingertips as the ball was tipped over the bar. Marcus Edwards had the ball in the net but this was ruled out for offside, harshly in my opinion. Denaby did pull a goal back right on the stroke of half time and it came from a long throw-in from Reece Dudhill bounced once in the penalty area, up and over everyone's heads to the far post where Ellis Hancock was waiting and he made no mistake with a firm shot into goal.

The second half did see Main have a lot of territorial possession but there was little end product with corners and long throws seeming the only way they might get level, a few of these did see the home side scrambling to get the ball clear but in truth as far as open play was concerned the home goal was in little danger. With time running out and Main chasing the game a goal kick for the Red Rose sailed long into the Denaby half where a home forward took possession raced through on goal and fired in a shot which went in off a post to make the score 3-1. To add insult to injury Ecclesfield grabbed a fourth with a long throw of their own, launched into the penalty area the ball bounced up and it was a home player who headed it up and over AJ as he came out to gather. A bad day at the office after 2 good displays in the previous 2 league and cup games.
