DESPITE being a goal behind after only seven minutes, Blackrod regained their composure and ran out eventual winners at Barnoldswick Town.

Mark Height equalised on 25 minutes from a superb Richard Collier pass, before a four-man passing interchange culminated in a 20-yard special from Richard Collier.

Height then made sure of the points when he chipped the ball over the Barnoldswick keeper for the third goal.

Blackrod Reserves welcomed local rivals Charnock Richard. Despite missing two penalties, Blackrod won 3-0 thanks to a fine hat trick from Daniel Anderton
