Also in Division One, Appleby's beat Victoria Inn after what manager Rod Martin called a mixed performance.

"It was a bit Jekyll & Hyde," said Martin after referee Jason Haywood allowed time for the pitch at Windmill Hill to thaw following overnight frost.

"We were lucky to be only two behind at the halfway stage, but the half-time team talk definitely did the trick."

Dave Worthington and Karl Dooley restored parity for Appleby's within 15 minutes of the restart, while Dooley's second (from the penalty spot) and another goal from Worthington put them in the box seat.

Victoria Inn's first-half goals came from Chris Lewis and Luke Phillips, with Sean-Paul Hooten grabbing the third late on.
