Hide AdBlackpool Wren Rovers ended their campaign on a positive note with a 3-1 win against Haslingden St Marys in the West Lancashire Football League Premier Division.
After a quiet first half, Wren Rovers broke the deadlock 10 minutes into the second period courtesy of Luke Noble, who then doubled their lead from the penalty spot.
Oscar O’Neil added a third 15 minutes from time, before Haslingden pulled one back shortly afterwards through Henry Hindle – but it turned out to be little more than a consolation.
The result, Wren Rovers’ final game of the season, leaves them ninth in the table, although a number of other sides are yet to complete their fixture list.
