EARLY District League Division I pacesetters Uppermill were brought back down to earth by Britannia Sports who ended their 100% record with a 3-1 victory.
Uppermill had gone three games unbeaten to go top of the table but the weekend’s result now leaves them just two points ahead of Britannia with both teams having played four games.
Defending champions Newsome WMC dropped points when they were held to a 1-1 draw at Wooldale Wanderers.
Uppermill had beaten them 4-1 the previous week but mid-table Wooldale battled well to earn a point.
Hepworth United maintained their 100% record at the top of Division II with a 4-2 victory against Scholes.
The Holme Valley outfit have a two-point lead after, four wins from four, from second-placed Sovereign Sports who were held to a 1-1 draw by KKS Ashbrow.
Lamb Inn went top of Division III after a 2-0 win against SC Cowlersley who are second.
It is one of the closely-contested divisions with only two points separating the top six.
Skelmanthorpe stormed up to third place after hitting Lindley for six without reply while Cumberworth tamed The Stag with a 5-1 result.
In Division IV there were big wins for Dalton Crusaders who beat Farnley Terriers 4-0, Flockton put six past Fenay Bridge, while Royal Dolphins beat basement club Marsden 9-3.
Elsewhere, hats off go to Sunday League Division II outfit Helion who were the weekend’s top scorers after they put 10 past Gas Club in a 10-1 victory.
Other teams to enjoy a goal frenzy were Westend who beat HV Academicals 9-1 in the District League Reserve Division III and Moldgreen put nine without reply past Ireti Athletic in Division II of the Works League.
AFC Emley hit back from an early reversal to gain a 3-1 win over Yorkshire Amateurs in Division I of the Northern Counties East League at the Welfare Ground.
The home side went behind as early as the fourth minute when Steve Hart scored but they were back on level terms five minutes later when Allan Laud equalised.
Emley now began to exert some pressure and they went in front on 17 minutes through Gavin Birmingham, and they should have increased their lead with the chances created but failed to add to their score until Laud added his second and Emley’s third on 69 minutes.
The victory provides Emley with a boost ahead of their FA Vase preliminary round match at Bootle on Saturday (3.00).
