Wednesday Reserves’ Biggest Win of the Season.

Wednesday Reserves  8  Denaby United 0

Wednesday Reserves registered their biggest win of the season at Hillsborough, yesterday, when they beat Denaby United 8-0.

Denaby had not previously been defeated by such a large margin, although they have had seven goals scored against them on several occasions. The result might have been much larger had it not been for many brilliant saves made by Lee.

Brown a rather tall and well-built youth whom Wednesday secured from Frickley a short time ago, created a favourable impression at outside-left. His centres were very accurate, and his shots travelled with great force. Binney and Ruddock were rare workers, and appeared to be able to go through the Denaby defence whenever they chose to do so. Kean, Reed, and Levick. formed a strong half-back line, and Kell and Dunn made some good clearances.

On the Denaby side, Hamilton and Shuttleworth were the best of a poor forward line.

The goal scorers were: Binney (3), Ruddock (2), Taylor Capper and Brown.
