Linotype 2
Eagle Sports 1

DEPLETED Eagle were unable to take momentum into their upcoming run of cup games after a loss at Linotype Cheadle in Division One on Saturday.

The visitors took a first half lead when Craig Bishop lashed into the back of the net, but were pegged back as Linotype levelled before the break.

They were aggrieved by Linotype’s winner when officials adjudged an Eagle player to have been the one to make a final touch on a ball that reached the hosts’ striker in an offside position.

Eagle McDermott, Roberts, Chinn, Coleman, Robinson, Bishop, Burthem, Lee Boardman, Ellis, McAllister, Quirk. Subs used Fletcher, Thomas.

 EAGLE Sports suffered at the hands of their Styal counterparts on Saturday, shipping seven goals.

Four goals adrift by the break, they replied with consolation efforts in the second half from Gareth Williams, Andy Dawson and Michael Doodson.
