North West Counties League First Division North Round-Up
Golcar United’s title hopes hang firmly in the balance as play-offs rivals Pilkington held them to a 1-1 draw.
Buddy Cox cancelled out Pilkington’s third minute opener on a disappointing night for Ash and Gav Connor’s men.
Golcar will need John Virgo’s help in the title race as snookers are now required to catch unbeaten leaders Bury AFC who are ten points clear.
Unstoppable Bury only need 15 points from their remaining eight games to take the crown.
They took full advantage of Golcar’s draw by winning 2-1 against brave Ilkley Town.
Ilkley gave themselves late hope with George Gomersall’s 81st minute goal.
