After failing to break down the 10 men of rock-bottom Rock Rovers in the first half, they had better luck when Rovers were finally able to put out a full team after half-time.

Boars Athletic are their closest challengers – Craig Harding (two), Nathan Greson and Yousef Abukari scored in a 4-1 win over Saha Peacock, for whom Keegan Green replied.

Hodnet thrashed Fox Wem 9-1 in the only match in Division Two, but all the league matches beat the weather in Division Three.

Compasses United made it nine wins from nine, but had to fight hard for their win against AFC Coleham.

Steve Harris hit a hat-trick and was joined on the scoresheet by Marcel Nghomsi and Salmonas Bursatis. Jack Harley and Nathan Thomas replied.
