HASHTAG UNITED V BENFLEET - OCTOBER 2018

NON-LEAGUE DAY 2018 

For today's Cold End flashback we visit North London as Jay Devereux's Hashtag United side made it nine Thurlow Nunn First Division South wins in a row with a 3-1 victory over Benfleet in front of a bumper crowd of 470 at Coles Park. 

First half goals from Ryan Adams and Neil Richmond (2) sealed the win for the home side. Both teams played some excellent football on the day with the visitors unlucky not score goals to get back in the game - they were definitely the better side in the second half so can take lots of positives from the afternoon. 

Special mention to their Captain who took over in goal at half time as their keeper went off with an injury picked up in the first half. 

The game was free entry as it was Non League Day with a collection towards Prostate Cancer UK which raised a good amount of money for a great charity. Hashtag's founder Spencer Owen also donated £1 for every person who attended and added £100 as his team won so massive respect to him for a very nice gesture.
