Sandbach United v Golborne Sports

6.30pm  29 August 2012

Cheshire League, Division Two
Sandbach United 2 Golborne Sports 3 (att 48)

Great entertainment at Sandbach United's new ground. The home side started well, creating plenty of chances, and were soon ahead, but they failed to capitalise on their early dominance and were punished when Golborne equalised before half time.

The teams traded goals in the second half, including a penalty for each side, but Golborne's sharper finishing earned them the points, despite the home side creating more chances.

The pitch at the Sandbach Community Football Centre, in Hind Heath Road, looked good and had stood up well to the day's very heavy rain.

Overall the facilities are impressive. A long low building houses the clubhouse, including a snack bar, and changing rooms. Behind it is a floodlit all weather pitch, while the main grass pitch is to the front, and enclosed by wooden fencing. Beyond the far side, and beyond the far goal, are extensive playing fields with further pitches and training areas.
