Knights get first league win since November

Pinchbeck United are back to winning ways as they came from behind to beat Heanor Town 3-1 away from home on Saturday.
It was the Knights’ first win in the ChromaSport United Counties League Premier Division North since November.
The Knights found themselves behind after just five minutes when they were stunned by a wonder strike from 30 yards out.
But they responded brilliantly and were soon level, thanks to Bailey Dilley’s powerful header from a corner.
The Knights led at the break when the referee gave a foul committed on Owen Sheriff who then tucked home the resulting spot kick.
Heanor came back into the game in the second half but Pinchbeck sealed it late on.
Andre Williams had already gone close in the second half but he made no mistake with another chance to seal a welcome three points.
Pinchbeck were due to host Deeping Rangers at the Sir Halley Stewart on Wednesday night (result not known at time of going to press) before a trip to Belper on Saturday.
Knights: Smith, Jaine, Millar, Dilley, Sheriff, Worthington, Spafford, Melson, Williams, Vieira, Burdass. Subs: Wilkinson (GK), Foster, Robson, Johnson, Henderson.
Attendance: 75
