Genero Adran North round-up | Flint Town United win big under new boss

Flint Town United made a winning start to life under new manager Oli Williams with a 5-0 victory over NFA at the Essity Stadium on Sunday. 

Ruby McGilloway gave the Silkwomen the lead after just four minutes, while Zoe Stopford and Rosie Hughes added their names to the scoresheet to open up a three-goal lead by half-time. 

Hughes turned provider for fellow teenager Ruby Hastings in the 73rd minute, before grabbing another goal of her own five minutes later – assisted by her sister Daisy – to wrap up the win. 

Connah’s Quay Nomads were also big winners as they triumphed 4-0 away at Rhyl 1879 to continue their perfect start to the league campaign. 

Genero Adran North top scorer Ella Jones completed a move to the Nomads from Llandudno on Friday and it took her just three minutes to set up Phoebe Ellis for the opening goal. Jones then set up captain Polly Wild McGregor to double the lead before grabbing a goal of her own moments later to make it 3-0 with little over a quarter of an hour played. 

Ellis had two powerful strikes denied by the crossbar in the second half, but eventually a fourth goal arrived for Nomads as substitute Aimee Redfern headed home at the front post from Ellis’ corner. It is now three consecutive clean sheets in the league for Jordan Parry’s side and they remain the only side in the division not to concede a goal this season. 

Reigning champions Llandudno also made it three wins from three games with a narrow 1-0 victory away at Bangor. 

The decisive moment came in first half stoppage time courtesy of forward Kelsey Davies, who finished calmly past Catrin Roberts to ensure the Seasiders went a full calendar year unbeaten away from home. 

Llanfair United stunned Felinheli for the second time this season as goals from youngsters Emma Williams and Paris Schofield were enough to secure a 2-1 win at Mount Field. 

Having already beat Felin 3-2 in the Genero Adran Trophy group stage in September, Llanfair made the perfect start to this game as Williams fired home in the 16th minute. 

Shannon Jones got the away side back on level terms shortly before the hour mark, but Schofield continued her fine start to life in Llanfair colours as she netted the winning goal in the 64th minute to send her side up to third in the table.
