Hardly Athletic finally got their cup campaign up and running after the bottom of the table clash with Old Mill was called off, resulting in a 4-0 win for Athletic.
Hardly now move up to 6th and have a slight chance of finishing in the top 3 and qualifying for finals day at the end of the season.
Athletic were looking to build on last weeks season first win over Pack Horse but were gifted the points when their opponents pulled out just an hour before kick off.
Hardly had hoped to give new signing Mark Mothershaw a debut but will now keep him under wraps for next weeks league game against Allstars United, ko 8.25pm.
