The Worksop defence held firm and pinched it in injury time, when Steve McDonnell was tripped in the box and Matthew Sykes converting the spot-kick.
After the final whistle tempers flared and hand bags were swung, resulting in 4 red cards. Brett Lovell, Sam Scrivens (Penistone) Kyle Jordan and Michael Trench (Worksop).

Following the Steel City Derby Academy fixture at Middlewood Road, I partaken lunch at The Rawson Spring (JDW no.382) Had a good bit crack with a few Wednesday supporters, plus on two occasions someone who I’ve never ever seen before stopped to say hello, so obviously my doppelganger is in Hillsborough.
13 miles north up the A61/A629 to Penistone, arriving 30 minutes before kick-off. Great little club with good numbers supporting them.
Back hyem by seven bells after 118 mile drive back north.
