Clark on mark in Old Boys win.HUDDERSFIELD Amateur player Sam Clark was on target as the Yorkshire Old Boys stunned the West Riding County Amateur League with a 3-0 victory in the FA National League System Cup The FA National League System Cup is a football competition run by The Football Association. It was created in the 2003-04 season to provide an English representative in the UEFA Regions Cup. . The County Amateur League called up Meltham striker Tom Mathews and also had players from Huddersfield sides Bay Athletic, Golcar United and Storthes Hall for the second-round tie at Bradford side Campion's Manningham Mills ground, and he offered the greatest threat to the Old Boys. But their tall defence stood firm and Clark's 30th-minute goal gave them a deserved lead. Mathews had two decent chances to equalise, but put both over the bar, and the Old Boys, who also included Sam Burns, of Huddersfield side Collegians, underlined their superiority in the final 20 minutes, when Steve Tierney (Stanningley) and Mathew Jackson (Gildersome Spurs) scored further goals. Having previously seen off the Cumberland and Cheshire County Leagues, the Old Boys League are the first side through to the quarter-finals. The other seven second-round ties are: Lancashire & Cheshire Amateur v Cambridgeshire County, Liverpool County Premier v Isle of Man Noun 1. Isle of Man - one of the British Isles in the Irish Sea Man British Isles - Great Britain and Ireland and adjacent islands in the north Atlantic , Lancashire Amateur v Humber Premier, Essex Olympian v Jersey Combination, Bedfordshire v Dorset Premier, Guernsey Senior County v Southern Amateur, Reading v Hertfordshire Senior County.

The defending champions took their goal haul to 43 in nine games by winning 6-2 to go third, two points behind Westbrook with a game in hand. Courtney Allette grabbed a hat trick and Kitson Gayle two while Daniel Naidole got the other.
