EASINGTON United went into Tuesday’s South Holderness Cup tie at Withernsea buoyed by their first league win in ten matches.
In their final HPL Premier Division fixture of the season the Eastenders beat Malet Lambert YC 2-0 and so ended a run of five straight defeats.
First half goals from youngsters James Mee and Anthony Barnett capped an impressive performance and although United never quite reached the same heights after half-time they more than deserved the three points.
Despite seeing his side finish in their lowest position in the Humber Premier League since the inaugural 2000/01 campaign, manager Dave Mackay-Dundas had nothing but praise for the way his injury-ravaged squad stuck to their task over the final two months of the campaign.
He now also has a better idea of just how many of the Club’s promising youngsters are ready for regular HPL action next season, after having to use several of them over the last half dozen games. All have impressed the boss at various times, while Mackay-Dundas was also keen to praise the character shown by the more experienced members of the squad during recent difficult times.
Away from the action, the decision of the Central Midlands League to abort plans to regionalise its divisions for 2008/09 now means the Eastenders will remain in the Humber Premier League next season.
Finally the Club’s ‘B’ squad in the South Holderness Cup entertain Hedon Rangers Reserves in the second round this Saturday. Kick-off for this game is 11.00am.
