Knowing that a win today would secure safety from relegation, the Dale were looking for a first win in 2008. Revenge was also on are minds as it was only a week a go Epworth beat us 4-2 in a controversial game at winterton. Reg Spencer made one change as Voulgaris was injured so Jack Clixby came in with Keiron Spencer shifting to left back. Although Epworth came out attacking it was Dale who made the first goal with Connor Durnian holding the ball up a flicking it on to Ell Brown who, sensationally volleyed from 25 yards to give us a 1-0 lead.However it didn't last for long with Epworth equalizing five minutes from half time after Dale Park Failed to clear a corner. The thunderous shot beating Finney in goal.The second half had few chances with Epworth trying to seal the points. However it was the Winterton side who had the best chance when Connor Durnian hit his shot straight at the goalie after a lovely assist by Jack Lacey. But it was Durnian who made amends by scoring a open goal after a howler by the Epworth goalie.despite late pressure Epworth did not find the net and Dale Park hang on to win.
