1874 Northwich started a new season in the North West Counties League's top-flight with a convincing win against Padiham. Who was their best player? Vote in our man-of-the-match poll
1874 NORTHWICH made a winning start to their tenure at Barnton when they brushed aside visitors Padiham on Saturday.
Goals in the first-half from Jake Parker and Scott McGowan sandwiched a stunning strike by James Dean for the Storks.
There was little to choose between the teams during the second-half until substitute Harry Cain fired low past goalkeeper Matthew Holmes to make it 3-1.
He was replaced immediately as a precaution after aggravating a slight injury and replacement Lee Knight curled in an eye-catching fourth goal against his former club.
