MDH Teamwear Northants Combination League Report

Duston Garage (Bosch Service) Star Award :
Gretton who sealed their tenth successive win in style.

Russell Roofing Premier Division:
With Brixworth not playing, Kislingbury seized the initiative and moved six points clear with a 4-2 win at Corby Pegasus. Weldon meanwhile recovered from their recent wobbles with a much-needed home win over Queen Eleanor by the same margin. Sean Brennan scored twice to ensure there was no repeat of the previous week’s surprise reverse. Wins for Harpole and Harborough keep alive their mathematical chances of snatching the Premier Division crown. Dave Barrett struck for Harpole in their 1-0 success over Milton, while Ben Gamble and Ryan Goodband secured Harborough’s 2-1 victory over Heyford. Tommy Stratfield opened the scoring for Whitefield Norpol in their 3-1 over Moulton.

Keystone Roofing Supplies Division 1:
Welford squandered the opportunity to move clear of Ringstead slumping to a 3-2 reverse at Wootton. Ben Ward got the winner for Wootton who keep alive their slender chances of securing top spot. Carlton Ellwood’s treble was the highlight of the game as his Stanwick side saw off Finedon Volta 4-1. Danny Watts got Volta’s consolation from the spot. John Gribben and John Sludden netted for Kingfisher as they saw off Stanion 2-1.

Rothenberger Group Division 2:
Gretton underlined their title credentials in superb style, with a Star Award winning 9-0 battering of Bective Wanderers. George Donnelly will take the lions share of the plaudits, and deservedly so as he grabbed four of the goals. Stuart Chapman came closest of his team mates to matching his feat, weighing in with a brace. Danesholme Vikings pose the biggest threat yet seem unable to capitalise on their games in hand, throwing away more points in their 5-2 defeat away at Grammarians. James Hegarty got the OG’s on their way to victory which was sealed by an unfortunate own goal. Clipston did their chances no harm at all, and may be poised to gain from the Vikings indifferent form despite having played several games more, with a nap win at home to Ristee. Matt Bates opened the scoring as the hosts romped to a 5-0 success. Marcus Thomas scored the all important fifth goal for Corby Strip Mills who edged out Islip 5-4. Sam Smith netted twice for Islip  who could not secure a point.
Great Doddington’s Duane Hall was another brace-bagging marksmen, snatching his in the 4-1 success over Weedon. The result leaves Weedon all but certain to be playing in Division Three next season. High-flyers Ranelagh meanwhile succumbed to a Jamie Hunter strike and went down 1-0 to Burton United. James Hudson got the first of Wollaston’s goals in their 2-0 success over Orchard Park.

Division 3:
Wilby recorded their second 6-0 win in three home games. Daniel Nolan netted three, and there was a brace for Conner Hartwell as they saw off local rivals Wellingborough WMC.  Ise Lodge meanwhile secured their fifteenth league win of the campaign, 3-1 away to Wellingborough Saxons.

Division 4:
Steve O’Brien popped up with two more goals for Long Buckby Ravens as they took another step closer to league success, seeing off Yardley 4-0. They were helped by a surprise 2-1 defeat for West Haddon. Dominic Machell and Mark Lister scored the goals for Kettering Park Rovers in their success. Paul Malivoir netted the winner for FC Higham in their 3-2 success over Kingswood. The defeat leaves Kingswood’s title hopes in tatters. Matt Brown got two for CSV who inflicted a twenty-first successive defeat on Corby Hearth. There was a brace too for Luke McCauley as Talisman saw off Higham Dragons 2-0.

Duston Garage (Bosch Service) Reserve Premier Division:
Mike Wallace netted three times for Harpole who eased to a 5-2 win over Pegasus Reserves. Kislingbury went down to another defeat, losing 3-2 to Roade despite Dean Wilkinson’s double. Mark Watson netted twice for Khalsa who got the better of rivals Gretton 4-2. Bugbrooke ‘A’ pulled out a surprise 7-0 win over ON Chenecks ‘A’.

Reserve Division 1:
A 5-2 success at Wollaston, and a 4-3 defeat at Blisworth allowed Brixworth to close the gap on leaders Orchard Park to nine points. Dale Lewis scored a hat-trick for Blisworth who retain an interest in the promotion race, thanks to their games in hand. Phil Chapman and Lawrence McCall both scored for Medbourne who defeated Heyford 2-0. Stuart Schofield and Joel Gordon scored the goals for Queen Eleanor in their 2-1 derby-day victory over Wootton St George. Rhys Elavia netted a brace for Finedon Volta in their 4-3 success over Bugbrooke ‘B’ who stay rooted to the foot of the table. The Ringstead revival continues meanwhile after their 2-1 success over Weldon ‘A’.

Reserve Division 2:
The championship may be sown up for Earls Barton, but they show no sign of easing up, defeating local rivals Old Grammarians 2-1. The race for the wooden spoon looks almost certain to be won by Wilby. A 10-0 humbling at the hands of Islip, almost assures them the unwanted accolade. Dainite also went down to heavy defeat, losing 7-2 at home to Spratton, but have a two point advantage and four games in hand. Matt Pheely scored three, and Dan Crask two for Spratton. Dom Page and Shaun Sparrow got the Leicestershire side’s replies. Crick meanwhile recorded a 1-0 win over Drayton Grange.
