With Mike Greaves expertly navigating, we made the 24 mile journey via Worksop in 45 minutes to the second Bonanza match. Thoresby are based in the heart of Sherwood Forest at Edwinstowe. With a bitingly cold win persisting, the sides shared the points in a game with few clear-cut scoring opportunities. The goals came at either end of the game with Thoresby taking the lead in the 3rd minute and Hucknall grabbed a point with a 90th-minute equaliser.
