12th October, 2014
Tadcaster Albion and AFC Emley still head the Toolstation NCEL Premier Division and Division One tables, respectively, after home wins on Saturday.
Tadcaster beat Pickering Town, 2-1, with goals from Josh Greening and Tom Chamberlain sandwiching a Joe Danby strike for the visitors, the winner coming with nine minutes remaining in front of a crowd of 523.
And, just under 300 saw Shaw Lane Aquaforce win by the same scoreline at home to Worksop Town in their top three clash.
Andre Johnson put the Tigers ahead on 26 minutes but Andrew Fox restored parity for the hosts before half-time and a Shane Kelsey penalty midway through the second period meant they took all three points to stay one behind Tadcaster in second spot whilst Worksop fall to fourth.
Heanor Town are up into third, a Gary Ricketts hat-trick helping them to a 4-0 victory over visitors Retford United after Adie Hawes had given them a seventh minute lead.
Fifth-placed Handsworth Parramore also won 4-0 at home with a Lee Whittington brace starting them on their way against Garforth Town and, afterwards, they announced that manager Russell Eagle had been "relieved of his duties" prior to the game.
Barton Town Old Boys climbed into sixth as Gareth Barlow, Alex Sherwood and Ashley Lattimore netted in their 3-1 home victory over Armthorpe Welfare.
The bottom four sides were all beaten with Armthorpe and Retford's losses added to by heavy home defeats for Nostell Miners Welfare and Glasshoughton Welfare.
Nostell remain in the basement after Richard Peck's brace helped Cleethorpes Town to a 5-1 victory over them and Glasshoughton went down 6-1 to Albion Sports, Daniel Facey with a hat-trick for the visitors.
There were two goals for Daniel Joynes as Athersley Recreation won 3-2 at Maltby Main and Liversedge were 2-0 victors at Thackley, courtesy of strikes from Mitchell Pearson and Andrew Wood.
AFC Emley stay top of Division One on goal difference after they won 4-0 at home to Rossington Main, Michael Tunnicliffe and Max Leonard scoring before the break before a third from Antony Brown and a late Zack Oakshott own goal made it a straightforward afternoon for the leaders.
But, Clipstone remain on their coat tails, maintaining their 100% record with a 2-1 victory over local rivals AFC Mansfield at the Worksop Van Hire Stadium.
Dean Rick broke the deadlock on 43 minutes for the Bulls but Clipstone quickly levelled through Jamie Smith and Stuart Hill got the winner with twelve minutes remaining.
304 people watched the encounter, the highest attendance this season for a Division One fixture.
John Rogers' late winner ensured third-placed Eccleshill United remained five points behind the top two as they won 1-0 at Yorkshire Amateur.
Hemsworth Miners Welfare's 7-2 defeat of visitors Lincoln Moorlands Railway sees them up into fourth whilst Pontefract Collieries are fifth after their 2-0 win at Grimsby Borough and a late Matthew Plant double saw Shirebrook Town win 3-2 at Hallam to move up into sixth.
Lewis Dickinson got the only goal of the game for Penistone Church at Bottesford Town and there were draws in the day's three other matches.
It finished 1-1 for Dronfield Town at home to Hall Road Rangers and for Selby Town at Worsbrough Bridge Athletic whilst four goals were shared between Louth Town and Knaresborough Town.
And, Teversal are through to the Second Round of the Notts Senior Cup after their 2-1 win at Attenborough.
