James King Blisworth Reserves following their 16-0 demolition of Ringstead Rangers Reserves.

Russell Roofing Premier Division:
Three 1-1 draws dominated the results in the Premier Division this week. Milton finally got themselves off the mark and off of the bottom drawing at home to Corby Khalsa. Ash McGee netted for Milton in reply to an Andrew Cox strike. The result sees the home side climb above non-playing Brixworth All Saints on goal difference. At the opposite end of the table Weldon continue sitting pretty on top after their long trip to Moulton finished with the same score line. Marc Ansell netted the opener for the hosts. Heyford remain second with the third of the draws, this time on the road to Medbourne. Matt Barron’s effort cancelled out an earlier strike from Medbourne’s  Martin Anderson.
Whitefield Norpol were the only side in the division to record a win. Jay Veiyra’s hattrick and a brace from Miah Jones set them on the way to a comfortable 7-0 win over Corby Pegasus.

Keystone Roofing Supplies Division 1:
It is still early days, but Corby Kingfisher, Wootton St George and Daventry Drayton Grange all took advantage of the leaders Welford’s failure to beat Kettering Nomads and close the gap to a single point. The pacesetters could only draw 2-2, while their rivals all recorded their second wins of the campaign. Richard Price registered two in Drayton’s 5-1 home win over Cold Ashby. Paul Kelly and Kieran Doherty were on target for Kingfisher as they eased to a 2-0 away win at Ringstead. Wootton meanwhile ran out 3-1 winners at Stanwick courtesy of a Michael Ryan treble. Carlton Ellwood scored Stanwick’s consolation. Missed chances cost Finedon Volta dearly as Stanion came back to snatch a point in stoppage time. John Tarry had put Volta ahead before the visitors squandered a hatful of opportunities. Paul Caswell then popped up in the last minute to punish the profligacy.

Rothenberger Group Division 2:
Weedon will count themselves unlucky after losing out 5-4 to Islip. Matt Farrell had hit a brace for the home side, along with singles from Sam Leighton and Daniel Lloyd. However Islip spurred on by a captain’s goal from Leo Adams, and strikes from Jamie Fane, Ben Smith, Danny Rodgers and Danny Wagstaff sealed the points late on.  Nick Taylor bagged two as Danesholme Vikings made it three out of three for both sides, with a 4-1 home victory against Ristee Towers The hosts have taken maximum points from their matches so far, whilst the Woodford side have yet to register a point from their three games.  Bective went down to their second defeat of the season at Old Grammarians. Dan Bowerman, James Westley and Mark Njotsa all scored as the Wellingborough outfit ran out 3-1 winners. Strip Mills took local bragging rights, and joined the chasing pack after their 2-1 derby win over Gretton. Shaun Muir scored both of Strip Mills goals.  A Russ Eggleton treble for Clipston, saw Burton slump to a second successive league defeat.

Division 3:
Top met bottom at Wilby and the result went according to form, with the home side securing their third successive win, defeating struggling Dainite 4-2. Pick of the home marksmen was Sean Alexis who netted a brace. A Scott Harrison hat-trick ensured that Corby Everards took the points, and slot into second place with a 5-2 home win against Wellingborough Saxons. Hillmorton sit third after a 3-3 draw with Corby Locomotives.
Liam Hanley and Luke Camozzi ensured that the Ise Lodge juggernaut continues to move onwards. Their goals in the 2-0 win clipped the wings of Corby Eagles who drop into the bottom half of the table. Wellingborough Rising Sun and Wellingborough WMC both recorded home wins against Crick and Wilbarston respectively. Rising Sun continued their fine scoring run with an 8-0 win, where Tony Walker struck four times, and Tyler Amphlett netted a hat-trick. Travis Aitken scored two of WMC’s goals as they cruised to a 5-1 win.

Division 4:
A Steve O’Brien hat-trick, and solo efforts from Carlos Gittens and Nathen Scott keep Long Buckby Ravens flying high in first place. The leaders inflicted a 5-1 defeat on hapless FC Higham.  Another hat-trick, this time from Paul Linnell was enough to give Walgrave Amber their maiden win of the campaign, 3-0 over West Haddon. Perhaps rather fittingly it was firepower rather than the flaming variety that was on show in the tie between Higham Dragons and Corby Hearth. As it happened the Corby side will be left picking through the ashes of defeat to salvage the positives. Rob Bradshaw and John Macmillan netted for Hearth, but goals from John Lawman, Nick Turvey and Steve Allen took the points for the Dragons.
AFC Wymington continued their goalscoring form, and have notched twelve times in two games. James Wood, Ricky Maher, Andy Wood, Jay Fallaize and a cruel own goal swept aside Corby Talisman 5-1.  Meanwhile Kingswood climbed four places with a 1-0 win over Kennedys.

Duston Garage (Bosch Service) Reserve Premier Division:
Joe Mwaburi was the toast of Kislingbury after his two goals saw them climb to the top of the table with a 3-1 home win over Harborough Town. Whitefield Norpol also climbed the table courtesy of a 4-2 away victory at Corby Pegasus. Weldon stay ahead of them in second place by virtue of goal difference after a disappointing draw at home to Milton. Dom Spinelli had put the visitors ahead before Kieran Harper pulled the hosts level and earn a share of the points. Roade have Ben Ward to thank for securing a 4-3 victory at home to Moulton as his strike proved the crucial difference maker, after Lee Cowley’s excellent hat-trick had been cancelled out.
A 1-1 draw was enough to give Harpole and Kettering Nomads their first points of the season, meaning that Pegasus drop to the bottom of the pile on goal difference. Gretton and ON Chenecks also recorded their first points of the season with important wins. Gretton ran out 4-1 winners at home to Bugbrooke St Michaels ‘A’, whilst ON’s held on to defeat Khalsa 3-2.

Reserve Division 1:
If you’re going to win, do it convincingly. James King Blisworth certainly did that in their home tie with Ringstead Rangers. Despite being denied by the woodwork on three occasions, Blisworth proved superior to their opponents culminating in a 16-0 win. Shaun  Phillips scored six of the hosts goals, and was ably supported by another hat-trick, this time from John Horton, braces from Scott Rodgers and Ryan Yates. Neil Lovell, Ian Wake and Jimmy Walker all contributed singles to the cause. Leaders Kettering Nomads also won in style, with a 9-2 mauling of Bugbrooke ‘B’. Steve Rayner registered three and Will Newman a double.  Heyford sit second after their 4-1 win at Corby Locos.
Elsewhere a Ben Shelswell double was not enough for Wootton as they sank to a 3-2 home reverse at the hands of Stanion. Their disappointment will not be helped by the fact that their other local rivals, Queen Eleanor got the better of their nine-goal encounter with Finedon Volta to run out easy 6-3 victors. Wollaston Vics edged out Weldon ‘A’ 3-2 whilst Medbourne returned empty-handed from their short trip to Brixworth, as the hosts ran out 5-2 winners.

Reserve Division 2:
Neil Davies, Harri Winters, James Sweeney, and Lee Mills were all on target to propel Harpole ‘A’ to the summit, as they defeated Stanwick 4-1. Islip remain second despite going down to a 3-1 home defeat to Old Grammarians.  A 2-1 scoreline secured Crick’s maiden victory of the season, and leaves Drayton Grange still searching for their first point.
