Hunmanby were afforded a way back into the game when they were awarded a spot-kick of their own, Reggie Smith converting, but Logan notched two more to complete his hat-trick to make the score 4-1.

Rosette goalkeeper Michael Harland was his side’s man of the match.

With the wind behind them, Filey were on top in the first half and took a 1-0 lead into the break.

Park pinned their visitors deep in their own territory straight from the start of the second period and were level when Callum Halley netted a long-range effort.

The game’s decisive moment arrived when Filey’s keeper’s clearance got caught in a strong gust of wind and fell perfectly for Alex Wiggins to fire home from the edge of the box.

Skipper Richard Fletcher was Fishburn’s star performer, while young right-back Jack Kelly was also in top form.

A 35-yard free-kick from player-manager Mark Plumpton was enough to hand Goal Sports all three points from their trip to Westover Wasps Reserves.

Plumpton’s goal arrived after 25 minutes, entering the net via the underside of the crossbar, and he almost repeated the trick in the second half from another set-piece, but his shot came back off the woodwork.

Goal Sports had opportunities to add to their tally late on, but spurned a couple of one-on-one chances.
