Division One

Daventry United  2    Huntingdon Town  1

Saturday, 09 February 2008

Huntingdon suffered a double setback in their promotion quest.

They came off second best against their promotion rivals and suffered the loss of Ben Cottingham with a knee injury which caused a lengthy delay before the stricken player was airlifted to Coventry Hospital.

Adrian Pestell gave United a 25th minute lead from a corner only for Richard Moore to reply for Huntingdon with a 15 yard shot two minutes later.

Mchael Parkes scored the decisive goal, a deflected 20 yard shot, with twenty minutes to play and United are now in a great position to return to the top flight at the first attempt. 

Daventry: Roger Leeson, Rob Steele, Leigh Roberts, Ross Irvine, Ady Pestell, Wayne Richardson (Todd Sawko), Michael Parkes, Ian Waldock, Tommy Waldock, Tony Burt (Liam Hynes), Joel Young.

Huntingdon: Chris Benton, Tom Moran, Michael Duroe, Dominic Piggott (Ben Cottingham (Nathan Roberts)), Mark Hackett, Eddie Mills, Darren Ray, Adam Taylor (Declan Rogers), Chris Caswell, Richard Moore, Finlay Clarkson.
