Boltmakers took Keighley Athletic all the way in the Senior Cup semi final but went down 1-0 in extra time.
Both sides had chances to win in the ninety minutes with not a lot between them and after a goalless first ten minutes extra Colin Buckley scored the only goal to put Keighley through to play St Annes in the final.
Keighley Juniors kept their good run going in the Premier Division to beat Cricketers 12-1 who now finish bottom. Lee Rhodes led the way with five goals helped by two each from Mark Price, Roger Bailey and John Spurr and one from Howard Wellwood.
Rosse scored three in the first half against Maguires through Andy Trueman, Mohammed Ilyas and Peter Whelan before Lee Barlow scored his first for Maguires. An own goal half-way through the second half made the points secure for Rosse before Barlow scored his second to make the final score 4-2.
In the First Division Victoria Hotel were left needing one point to clinch the title after beating Broadford Plant 5-2 but were made to fight all the way. Plant took a 2-0 half-time lead through Lee Hewlett and Mark Stuart before Bob Morrisroe started the comeback. Tony Cooper equalised ten minutes from time and then three goals in the last four minutes from Russell Brown, Mark Sutcliffe and another from Cooper virtually clinched the title for Vic's. Royal kept up the chase by beating Ravenscliffe 4-2. After leading through a Sam Lunn goal Ravenscliffe equalised before half-time. In the second half Royal took command and Marcus Dearden and a Nick Fawell penalty put them 3-1 up before Ravenscliffe pulled one back to scare Royal but Jonjo Currie then made the game safe.
Springfield hope to catch Royal to second place but have to hope Royal slip up. Springfield had a scrappy 3-2 first from Rob Dunn -- then Gavin Yates and draw looked to be the obvious result but ten minutes from time Dunn hit his 33rd league goal of the season to sneak the point for Springfield.
