Bradford Sunday Alliance: After surrendering their unbeaten record to Oakenshaw in midweek, East Bowling Unity bounced back to crush Brown Cow 11-1, with Dave Elvidge equalling a Premier Division goal-scoring with seven in a match.
The relegated sides are Fairweather Green and Sandy Lane. Fairweather Green, after a creditable first half, slumped badly, conceding nine second half goals in a 10-2 defeat against Bolton Woods, Mick Gilmartin scoring four. Sandy Lane lost points after being unable to field a side against Albion Sports.
Newly-promoted Victoria Rangers, building on an excellent season, were 5-0 winners over Ventus, Rick Worrell hitting a hat-trick.
Champions Oakenshaw, back in the title frame, were 6-2 winners at Hudsons. Makeshift striker Karl Gray hit a first half hat-trick as Oakenshaw went 4-0 up.
Martin Thompson hit the goal of the game for Hudsons, sparking a comeback, only for Oakenshaw to come stronger in the latter stages.
With Milestone 9-3 casualties at East Ward the First Division championship is between Wibsey WMC and Stanley Road.
Wibsey, who only need to win their last match against bottom side Chellow to take the title, were 5-0 winners over West Bowling, with Karl Yewdall - whose first goal came after 20 seconds - bagging a hat-trick.
Stanley Road, one point behind with one game to play against Peel Park Rangers, guaranteed their promotion with a 1-0 win over Green Man.
Milestone, still interested in the title race before the game, only fielded nine men and folded in the second half at East Ward, who ran out 9-3 winners.
Five sides are still involved in the Division 1A title race. Westwood, who need maximum points from their remaining games to sustain their challenge, tuned up for Thursday's final game at Thornton with a 3-1 win at Undercliffe, defender Daniel Marsden being among the goals.
Pudsey Royal kept their hopes alive with a 7-0 win over Greengates, manager Darren Allison getting in on the scoring act with one of his side's six second half goals.
