Sheffield Daily Telegraph – Monday 08 October 1928
Newark 3 Denaby United 1
Newark Town, at home, easily beat Denaby United.
Denaby, however, were handicapped the absence of their left-back, Taylor, who sustained a nasty cut over the eye in the first half.
After Jones had established Denaby lead in seven minutes, Hoddinott came along with a “hat-trick’ and only splendid goalkeeping by Birch kept the score down to three.
Altogether Denaby gave plucky display against odds
