Second-placed Nestl Rowntree extended their unbeaten away record in the Leeper Hare York and District Football League to five games in a seven-goal thriller at Haxby United.

Two goals from Alan Howard, Matty White with his sixth of the season and a delightful chip from Steve Pearson gave Nestl a 4-3 win, with Dave Thompson, Tom Walters and Des Drummond scoring for Haxby.

Leaders Dringhouses have now gone five away games since conceding a goal as they beat Dunnington 3-0. After a goalless first half, John Lake (2) and Mark Woodward gave Houses the points.

Dean Woods, in his last game before going into hospital for an operation, hit a hat-trick as Thorpe United beat Pockling-ton 6-1. Alan Jackson marked his Thorpe home debut with a brace, while Alan Clayton also netted. Anthony Andrews scored Pock's lone reply.

The last four meetings between Huntington and Wigginton have been tight and the latest was no exception as Wigginton won 2-1.

In a match reduced to ten-a-side Bishopthorpe won 3-0 at Malton Bacon Factory.

The top three in division one all won. Tockwith made it five from five when they beat Rufforth 3-0 though the score-line slightly flattered them.

All the goals came after the break. Stuart Longbottom nodded in a rebound after a fine save from the Rufforth goalkeeper, Andy Wilson scored from the spot and a speculative Gary Singleton free-kick sealed the win.

Norwich Union claimed their fourth win in succession by beating Easingwold 3-0 with goals from Roger Osbourne, Mike Chapman and Julian Wilde. It was Easingwold's first away defeat in six games, their last also being against Norwich Union.

Heslington stretched their unbeaten record to five by beating Hamilton Panthers 3-2.

First-half goals from Danny Walters and Ben Coxen gave Heslington the advantage at the break but Joe Gorm marked his Panthers debut with a goal and shortly afterwards Paul Barron leveled, only for Stuart Dickenson to snatch the winner four minutes from time.

Post Office are still searching for their first win of the season as they lost 2-1 to Wilberfoss, despite taking the lead through Andy Bonarious. Shaun Hodgson equalized with a chip and Mark Tomlinson beat the off-side trap to claim the points.

Amotherby's poor away form continued as they lost for the seventh time on the trot on their travels, 2-1 at Ouseburn. Richard Dwight gave the hosts a half-time lead and, although that was cancelled out by Gary Punchard, Richard Carruthers netted the decider four minutes from time.

Two goals from Luke Dove got Elvington a share of the points at New Earswick in a 2-2 draw. Paul Stimpson and an own goal scored for the hosts.
