Ryhope CW were without a fixture on Saturday and Scarborough Town took
advantage, reducing the difference between the pair to seven points.
On a day when goals flowed, the Seasiders became leading scorers hitting
fourth-top Cleator Moor Celtic for five.
Their hero was Wayne Brooksby who celebrated his return from Australia with a
hat-trick. Georgie Rowlands and Joe Danby also struck with Robbie Fowler's
strike no more than a consolation for the Cumbrians.
Houghton Town, who haven't conceded a goal in open play for five games, were
another team to rack up five goals on their visit to Guisborough Town HC.
Man of the match was Brad Freeman who was on target four times. Houghton's other
goal was conceded by a defender and the two which Guisborough netted for
themselves were both penalties converted by Jonathan Cairns.
Silksworth conceded five goals at home to second-bottom Hartlepool whose
marksmen were Chris Archer, with a hat-trick, Daniel Corbett and Anthony Davis.
Willington remain at the basement after they too suffered a 5-0 defeat at
Teesside Athletic who are up to third to maintain their challenge for promotion.
Dale Mendum rifled a hat-trick with James Kesterton and Stuart Poulter adding to
the woes of Willington who have leaked 87 goals, the most by any team.
Ashbrooke Belford House made it 11 goals in two games when they surprisingly
romped home at Boldon CA, who had been in good form.
There was no stopping Tommy Dobbing's side, however. Peter Benson and David
Baxter each bagged a brace with Martin Deacon completing the scoring.
Five goals were also recorded at Wolviston with Windscale scoring three of them
courtesy of Kevin Oliver, Andrew Hurley and Rick Parnaby, with a last-minute
winner. Lee Butterworth and Danny Shields replied.
No fewer than 33 goals were scored in six games but the remaining fixture at
Kirkbymoorside was goal-less as Coxhoe Athletic, third from bottom, gained a
useful point.
Easington Colliery reached the Third Round of the Wearside League Cup defeating
Annfield Plain 3-2 thanks to goals from Chris Tarn, Robert Huntley and Haydn
Pace. Graeme Wilson and Stephen Kirkbride kept the visitors in the tie until the
final whistle.
Jarrow went out to New Marske whose matchwinners at Perth Green were Michael
Mackin and Richard Playforth.
