Sun Sports 1 Kings Langley 1                                   1969/70                                             HCL Prem

Wingers star in "Derby"

Two let wingers hugged the limelight in Saturday's Premier Division match in which Kings Langley recorded their fourth successive draw and Sun Sports broke their spell of six successive defeats.
Sun's number 11, Ray Eaton, who has been playing regularly for Athenian Leaguers Boreham Wood, revitalised the home attack with his exciting moves down the wing.
His Langley counterpart, Johnny Gurney, was also in tantalising form, working beaverishly to beat the Sun defence.
Sun were given a brisk lead through Tony Faux who dispossessed Colin Jennings before driving in a third minute goal.
John Low and Kevin Stratford might have increased Sun's lead, while Roger White could have cancelled it out for Langley in an evenly contested first half.
After Sun's bright opening, Langley retaliated with Jennings failing to atone for his earlier error when he missed a glorious opportunity as did Barry Hipwell in the 14th minute.
In the 63rd minute Gurney equalised with his ninth goal of the season by taking a Roy Sealy rebound round the goalkeeper and into the net.
