Ryecroft Rangers moved into third place after beating second placed Coach and Horses 5-2 in a game spoiled by the windy conditions.

The match was won and lost in the first half when Ryecroft built up a 4-0 lead through Michael Nunn (2) and Jamie McEwan (2). Coach and Horses improved in the second half and Arron Haywood pulled a goal back after two minutes, but Glynn Kershaw dashed their faint hopes when he scored Ryecroft's fifth goal before Haywood added his second from the penalty spot.

In the First Division, Jeromes had luck on their side in a thrilling 3-2 win at home to Ravenscliffe Celtic. Jeromes went in front with a tremendous shot from Paul Grimshaw before Lee Moorhouse equalised with an equally fierce effort.

Goalkeeper Dave Nash kept Jeromes in the match with some superb saves and the sides turned round 1-1 at the interval. Nicky Rooks restored Jerome's lead ten minutes after half time, knocking in the rebound after Paul Grimshaw's header had hit the bar. Jamie Hodgkin equalised for a second time for Ravenscliffe who then had a goal disallowed for offside.

Man of the match Stafan Lytwin then scored what turned out to be Jeromes' winner, but not before Celtic gave them another scare when they hit the woodwork.
