Derek Rouse continues to show a liking for the Oakenshaw defence following his six-goal showing against them in the Premier Division last season.

The Bolton Woods striker made it ten in two games by scoring four of his side's five goals as they warmed up for their forthcoming County Cup fixture against the same opponents with a 5-3 win.

Despite coming into the side only a month ago Dave Nelson has already established himself as one of the key players at Queensbury and the two-goal Keighley youngster starred in Queensbury's 5-2 win at East Ward, a result that moves Queensbury up from eighth to fourth.

Holme Wood Athletic gained revenge for an earlier League Cup defeat at Crown when they stung the home side 6-1 to go five points clear of the top of the division. Chris Brown scored on his Holme Wood debut.

Calverley's defensive woes continued as they lost 7-1 to Fairweather Green.

Second-placed Wibsey WMC came unstuck at bottom club Clayton Orient in Division One. Paul Cuthbertson's only goal of the game gave battling Clayton their second win.

West Bowling missed a chance to move into the top three when they went down 2-1 at Dudley Hill Rangers.

Bowling's attack had a quiet day against a Dudley Hill defence well marshalled by Ian Walker.

Despite two goals from Carl Yewdall, Waggoners stay in the bottom three after going down 4-3 to Westwood, who stay just below the leading pack.

Undercliffe CC moved off the bottom of Division 1A with a 4-2 win at Move It Removals.

Move It led through Mark Collett but Steve Miller's two goals, one a penalty, just before a half-time gave Undercliffe the edge.

Miller's cross put Tim Pallister in for a third and with Richard Keighley adding a fourth, the cricket club could afford to concede a late own goal.

With Ring O'Bells in cup action, White Eagles went back to the top of Division 1B following a last-minute win over Albion Sports.

Andy Patterson put Eagles in front from 30 yards and, after Albion

Sports had equalised, Patterson poached a winner with the last kick of the game.

Dudley Hill Rangers Reserves overcame Ventus thanks to goals from Mark Whitford in a match refereed by Ventus manager Roy Francis.

Buttershaw White Star stayed on the coat-tails of leaders Ring O'Bells and Eagles after a 4-2 win at Wibsey WMC, where it needed a great display from keeper Mick Cain to prevent Wibsey getting anything out of the game.

Former Farsley managers Dennis Metcalfe and Martin Haresign will be in opposition in the Senior League Cup semi-final after their respective sides, Pudsey Royal and Stanley Road, won their quarter-finals.

With great performances from full back Neil Lawrence and midfielder Alan Gamble, who won every 50-50 ball, Pudsey knocked out cup-holders Albion Sports 5-4. Two down, Albion pulled it back to 2-2 before Pudsey raced into a 5-2 lead. Aron

Heywood completed his hat-trick for Albion in injury time but it was to prove in vain.

Former Unity striker Gary Shaw's goal put Stanley Road through to the last four at Fairfax.

Winger Nathan James, who was a thorn in the Unity defence throughout, twice put Road in front. Unity equalised through substitute Ben Smithson and Richard Dyson (penalty) before Shaw's decider.

In the outstanding second-round match, Chellow beat fellow Division One side Queensbury Reserves 2-1. Tony Smith, making his debut in open age, scoring for Queensbury.

Chellow now play Bolton Woods in the quarter-final with Fairweather Green awaiting the winners at the semi-final stage. Victoria Rangers, defeated twice in their league encounters, finally gained the better of QC's in the their third-round Intermediate Cup clash.

QC's found it difficult to come back from conceding an early goal and, with youngster Carl Clowes leading the way with a hat-trick, Vics gained their revenge with a 6-3 win.

Double-chasing Ring O'Bells Shipley needed extra time to see off the challenge of Baildon Trinity in their fourth-round game. Chris McMahon completed his hat-trick as Bells went through 4-1.

Despite fielding a depleted side Whetley Lane held holders Brunsmere from Sheffield at 1-1 for 80 minutes in their final FA Umbro Vets group game.

A dubious handball incident proved crucial and Brunsmere scored three in the last ten minutes.

Paul Viner scored on his debut for Whetley Lane who go through as group runners-up.
