Hallams’ woes continue, as they fall to another defeat.

The Countrymen have yet to taste a league victory since promotion to the NPL East.

Any morale gained from a 4-1 win over Atherlsley (in the Sheffield and Hallamshire county cup in midweek) dissipated in a second half display that saw Garforth run out comfortable winners.

The Miners came into this game with a depleted squad and the news on Friday that long-standing captain Dan Coupland was taking a footballing sabbatical.

Hallam held their own as the first half ended in a stalemate, but Garforths’ pace down the wings proved too much in the second period. Wide man Harris Eggleston grabbed a brace, either side of a goal from substitute Ronnie McGrath.
