Heys returned to winning ways with a 5-1 victory over FC St. Helens at Adie Moran Park this afternoon.
After last weeks FA Vase knockout Heys responded with their fourth successive League win. The visitors posed an early threat before Ryan Hutchinson's men hit their stride with Jamal Crawford putting them ahead in the 8th minute.
Two minutes later Bryson Appleton added a second and when Takura Sambizi made it three in the 23rd minute Heys were in dreamland.
The visitors were reduced to ten men shortly before half time after Louis Holt was brought down when through on goal.
In the second half Heys pressed home their advantage with Holt scoring from close range in the 56th minute before Crawford added his second and his sides fifth goal in the 56th minute.
The visitors scored a consolation with ten minutes remaining but there was to be denying Heys a valuable three points that lifts them to ninth in the table.
More to follow over the weekend.
