Sunday Soccer: With the top game - East Bowling Unity v Oakenshaw - a victim of the weather, the shock result in the Premier Division came from Victoria Rangers.

They had won only one previous league game, but defeated Albion Sports, who had only lost once, 2-1.

Both sides were under-strength, Vics having to play manager Mel Williams in a five-man midfield.

The game's hero was Ricky Worrell. Up front on his own, he worked his socks off. He put Vics ahead, then hit an 80th-minute winner after Albion had equalised.

Queensbury's defensive frailties showed again at Stanley Road, where they conceded three goals in a crucial ten-minute spell in the second half to go 5-2 behind before making for a nervous ending at 5-4 with two late goals.

Bradford Moor undid all their good work after coming from 2-0 behind with two Wes Serrant goals by conceding two late goals with sloppy defending in losing to Bolton Woods.

Calverley Victoria, on a roll after several impressive cup wins, rallied with two strikes in the last ten minutes to beat First Division title hopefuls Craven Heifer 3-2, Ben Greaves scoring the winner.

Milestone are finding life difficult in this section. Their latest setback came at Thornton, where Alan Elsworth finished top scorer with four in a 10-1 drubbing.

Brian Carr hit a first half hat-trick for East Ward and, with the Contreras brothers Santiago and Juan sharing three others East Ward were coasting at 7-1 against Fairweather Green, who caused a late flutter with three swift goals after Ward had used their substitutions.

Another side to come from behind were Westwood, who, after a goalless first half, found themselves 2-0 down to Peel Park Rangers.

Manager Dave Ward led the fightback and was one of the scorers in a 3-2 reversal.

West Bowling never recovered from conceding three goals in the first ten minutes against Wrose Bull, where the experience of four-goal Martin Dolan proved too big a handful for Bowling's youngsters.

Midfielders Phil Brown and Liam Broach were outstanding in Queens Athletic's 2-1 win over Green Man, the winning goal being a delicate 20-yard chip by Craig Brierley.

While Carl Roberts slotted in both goals in the last 20 minutes in Undercliffe's 2-0 win over Clayton Orient, Eccleshill United march on to the Division 1A title.

The latest side to fall in their wake were Quarry, who were regretful of missed first half chances in going down 6-3.

The Baildon Trinity v Quarry Gap was abandoned after 80 minutes with Gap leading 5-3, and a disputed penalty proved Bank Top's downfall in a tight game 2-1 against Pudsey Royal.

There was a below-par performance from Division 1B promotion hopefuls Hare & Hounds, who had to thank Danny Saville for scraping a draw with a late goal against Eccles-hill United.

Springfield are still going well, Chris Downes returned from injury to score one and set up two others in their 7-0 win over bottom side White Eagles.

The other highlight was Dave Walsh's goal, which maintained his record of scoring in every league game.

Behind through an own goal, Woodman Rovers completed a five-goal second half to beat Bolton Woods Socials 5-2, two-goal Michael Anness being in outstanding form.

Junction, relying on Andy Sagar's late goal, drew 1-1 at Chellow in a game which Junction should have sewn up having had 80 per cent of the match.

Darren Parkin, who converted from centre half to centre forward, scored twice in Station's 7-3 win at Wrose Albion, where Phil Boyce's in-the-box sharpness helped him score four.

Odsal and Bradford Celtic were left to play most of the game with nine players each in Division 3B when four players were sent off following a 12th- minute fracas. Odsal took a 2-1 lead by the interval, but conceded three late goals to lose 4-2.
