Premier & Division One
MINSTERWORTH maintained their nine point lead at the top of the league with a 6-0 defeat of Tidenham.
Strikes from Will Steadman, Mishak Foster, Stacey Lee and Jason Griffiths (3) made it 59 goals for the season from just 12 games. The leaders don't have the best defensive record, however, that belongs to Mitcheldean, who have conceded only eight times this year.
They kept another clean sheet against Mushet & Coalway, winning 2-0 with efforts from Clint Jones and man of the match Dale Thomas. Ward also had a penalty saved by the Mushet keeper.
Nick Jayne and Joe Kilty shot Ruardean Hill Rangers to a 2-0 success against Newnham United. Tom Tomlins and Olly Fitt netted for Milkwall in a 2-1 win at English Bicknor. This was Bicknor's first loss at home in two years.
Cliff Khoza's goal gave Westbury United maximum points at home to Newent Town, while Marc Matthews (3) and Richard Tilling led Huntley to a 4-1 victory at bottom club Coleford United.
Division One leaders Lydbrook Reserves won 3-1 at Blakeney. They fell behind to an Andy Rowles effort, but hit back through Mike Etheridge (2) and Stuart Arnold.
Mitcheldean Reserves overcame Ruardean Hill Rangers 5-1 with goals from Knight, Prosser, Woodroffe and O'Hara (2).
Sam Claydon's winner gave Whitecroft the points at home to Redbrook Rovers, while Aylburton Rovers won 2-1 at Bream, courtesy of Hughes and Bennetto.
