Ouseburn have suffered their first defeat of the season in division two of Leeper Hare York and District League.

They were beaten 2-1 at home by Civil Service, a team that could not buy an away win last season but have now recorded their third win of the present campaign.

Martin Regan opened the scoring on 20 minutes when he chipped the home 'keeper.

Joe Micheli added the second on the half hour, with Stuart Ramsay replying for Ouseburn before the break.

For the second year running Fulford managed an away victory at Poppleton, winning 2-1.

On this occasion Andy Mercer gave Poppleton the lead on 55 minutes, but two goals in the space of five minutes for Fulford ensured that history was to be repeated.

Struggling Stillington had the early advantage of a penalty inside the first two minutes which was duly converted by Rob Rhodes, but visitors Riccall eventually hit back with second half goals from Jason Roughley and a brace from Jack Rogers.
