Adie Costello couldn't have dreamed up a better start to his Garforth Town career.

With just enough players at his disposal to start against Armthorpe, the Miners new charge couldn't afford any injuries, or below-par performances.
What he got was eleven players that were out to show what they (and Garforth Town) are all about.

Tim Robertson and man of the match Danny Harris were proving more than a handful for the “Wellies” down Garforths' left and it was an inch perfect cross-field pass from Robertson that set up Spencer Lund for what should have been the opener.
Sinmi Oyebanji missed an equally gilt-edged chance before Curtly Martin-Wyatt smashed in from close range to give the Miners a satisfying half time lead.

Eight minutes into the second half Garforth got the two goal cushion they deserved when Martin-Wyatts' powerful drive ended with Harris calmly cutting the ball back for Lund to tuck away.

Harris had seen a close range blast parried away, but when his next chance arose through excellent work by Thomas Smith, he jinked inside his marker and slotted calmly past Leigh Overton.
Martin-Wyatt missed the chance of the game, but we'll gloss over that and concentrate on the header he did connect with – a textbook downward effort that evaded the keeper. Sinmi provided the pinpoint cross.

Perhaps referee David Storrie felt a little sympathy for the visitors when he kept his cards in his pocket when the already cautioned Michael Bunn chopped down Martin-Wyatt as the striker burst through on goal chasing a hat-trick.

Jassim Alali got in on the act late on with a typical surge from defence that was eventually rewarded with a goal from close range.

This performance was a huge shot in the arm ahead of Saturdays' trip to Pontefract Collieries and with new additions available for selection, there''s an air of optimism around the JS White & co community stadium.
