- Stalemate in the Vale of Clwyd Derby

Denbigh Town Reserves were made to rue missed chances on Friday night as they couldn’t find a winner in the Vale of Clwyd Derby.

Liam Nash’s side will take solace from their first clean sheet of the campaign though in a game where chances were few and far between.

Nash made two changes to the side with Tom Salisbury returning whilst Sean James also came into the side.

Both sides spent the majority of the first half feeling the game out with the first clear cut opportunity coming on 24 minutes. Gabriel Hinchcliffe did well to knock a ball through to Salisbury who one on one couldn’t keep his effort down.

Two minutes later Ruthin had a chance of their own when Gruffudd Hughes pickpocketed Aled Jones only to drag his shot wide with only Jack Moorley to beat.

The closest either side came in the match fell on 33 minutes when good pressure from Debigh led the ball falling to Salisbury in the box, he shaped himself to fire towards goal but his effort was met by the base of the left upright.

Half-Time: Denbigh Town 0-0 Ruthin Town

The second half saw chances far more limited than the first with neither Moorley nor Oliver Leech called into action. In fact, it took until the 69th minute for any chances of note when James fed the ball to Salisbury before being denied comfortably by the keeper.

In a contest that in reality hadn’t lived up to it’s billing it wasn’t until stoppage time that either side looked like winning it. James came the closest when during a succession of corners he was denied at the near post, before Ryan Roberts’ pinpoint ball forward met James who turned his man inside out but was denied by Leech.

It ended goalless in front of a superb following of 240 at Central Park.
