  Peter Playle reports on the Alan Smith Memorial Trophy Final

The Castle Insurance Alan Smith Memorial Trophy final brought together two of the league’s Premier clubs, Brandon Bay Horse and Pelton RAOB in a closely contested encounter at New Ferons Park. Both teams started the game cautiously, Brandon create the first opening on the eight minute mark and grow in strength as the game progresses but it s Pelton who go closest to opening the scoring, a long range Paul Freeman effort testing had keeper Myers. Brandon’s Dan Hawkins sees a good effort cleared of the line on the thirty minute mark and five minutes later opens the scoring finishing off a great Chris Lawson move with a well struck volley. As half time approaches Pelton rock the Bay Horse with an equaliser, Craig Marron delivers a quality ball into the box for Craig Mickle to head home. In an evenly matched second half Pelton however created the most chances, Craig Marron squandered a great opportunity on the seventy fifth minute mark. As the final whistle and extra time looms the result is sealed in the final minute with a fine individual goal from Brandon’s David Fort.
