THE Leeper Hare York and District Football League Reserve 'B' top of the table clash proved to be one-sided.

Hosts Nestl Rowntree hit visitors Wigginton for six to record the double over the Grasshoppers.

Danny Franklin opened the scoring on 24 minutes and a Ken Davies penalty doubled the lead before the break.

After second-half goals from Mike O'Shaunessy and Franklin, Rowntree introduced substitutes Pete Sinclair and Luke Brownbridge who both contributed with goals. John Beech with his eighth goal of the season hit Wigginton's consolation.

Haxby ran riot against Stamford Bridge, Paul Jacobs and Dave Turnbull both hitting hat-tricks in a 9-0 win. Mike Taylor (2) and Dave Thompson completed the scoring.

Barmby Moor earned their first point of the season with a 1-1 home draw against Thorpe United. Tim Fernell gave Moor an early lead but Thorpe denied Barmby their first win with a late equaliser.

Reserve 'C' leaders Hamilton Panthers smashed through the 50-goals barrier when beating Hemingbrough 5-1.

Hemingbrough took an early lead through James Aked but Panthers hit back with a Craig Fletcher hat-trick, Steve Gagen's 20th goal of the season and Gavin Pickard's first of the campaign.

Poppleton United moved into second position after they won 4-1 at White Horse with goals from Joe and Russ Haw, Chris Sparks and Dave Bailey. Miles Taylor netted for White Horse.

Riccall slipped to their fifth game without a win as they were beaten 3-2 at Heslington.

Jamie Lumb gave Riccall the lead but Daniel Kelly levelled and Heslington took control in the second period with goals from Peter Elcock and an own goal before Steve Morton scored late on for Riccall.

York RI lost top spot in Reserve 'D' as they went down 2-0 at Huby to goals from Dave Brogans and Adam Johnson.

Norwich Union regained top spot after they beat LNER Builders 5-0 with strikes by Rob Collier, Phil Ellerby, Matt Hibbins, Andrew Bell and James Hutt.

Goalkeeper Tom Cates was Civil Service's hero as they beat Stillington 2-1. He made a brilliant 75th-minute penalty save and, soon after, team-mate Nick Doggitt hit the winner.

Earlier, Alan Closs had given the visitors the lead but Dave McCafferty equalised for Stillington before the interval.
