Answer: everyone remembers where they were when they heard the news.
and in years to come they'll also be saying “Where were you when Staveley Miners Welfare scored EIGHT?
It wasn't all plain sailing though and we have ‘keeper 16 year old Chris Butt to thank for some decent saves in a feisty first half, which gave us the platform to then go on and dominate the score sheet.
Lincoln Moorlands 0 - 8 (eight, that's eight, yes EIGHT) Staveley Miners Welfare

Getting a bag full of goals is gr-eight but you still only get three points and it was the clean sheet and the first goal (scored by Sam Finlaw) which actually got us the points on Saturday. So with that in mind I've shamelessly “borrowed” from owlsonline.com
“Who got us the points 2013/14”
In this, the points the team get are shared between the players that have actually got us those points. So in a draw the player who scores the goal to secure that draw gets the 1 point (or the defence in a 0-0)*. The player who scores the winner is deemed to have turned a draw into a win and therefore gets the other 2 points.
*in the event of a defensive substitution the two players points are shared.
Our first three points came in the 1-0 win at home to Glasshoughton so, the defenders share the first point and Nathan Whitehead gets the other two as his goal turned what would've been a draw into a win.
Our next point came in the 0-0 draw away at Athersley so, as we only got one point that day the defenders take it, because their clean sheet gained us that point.
I'm not going to bore everyone by going through the season result by result at this stage, but after the magnificent 0-8 result on Saturday the “Who got us the points table” stands like this….
nb: I'll move this off into its own little section in a bit...
Up the Welfare!
