SPORTS ARGUS WROTE
The first real chance on target came when a free kick from Nardiello was headed just wide. The Police forced two corners in succession but the visitors defence stood firm. Coleshill went close when a shot by Foote, after a free kick from Dyer, looked a goal all the way but Moore turned it over the top. From the corner Moore saved again. The Police hit back with Scriven going close. Coleshill went ahead when Jenkins took advantage of some bad Police marking to shoot through a crowd of players into the net. Coleshill piled on the pressure and could have scored another but Dorrian saved the day. Canning nearly made it two after a good move, but his shot went straight at Moore.
Half Time W.M.P. 0 v 1 Coleshill.


SUNDAY MERCURY WROTE
Coleshill went ahead when Jenkins took advantage of some poor Police to shoot through a crowd of players into the net. Coleshill piled on the pressure and could have scored another but Dorrian saved the day. With the Police pushing forward for an equaliser, Coleshill caught them square at the back with seconds to go to score through Canning from close range.
