8 games were played today in Division 1 of the NCEL.
Askern Villa took advantage of the fact that Scarborough Athletic had no game today as they made the short trip to Worsbrough Bridge Athletic and came away the 2-1 victors, but they have now played 4 games more than 'Athletic'.
Pontefract also jumped above Scarborough Athletic as they defeated 'Athletic's' next opponents AFC Emley 1-0, they are now 2nd to Askern Villa on goal difference.
So with the top of the table reading Askern Villa, Pontefract and then Scarborough, it was to be Barton Town who would take 4th place after their 1-0 victory away to Teversal.
Hemsworth MW are 5th thanks to their 4-0 win at basement club Glasshoughton Welfare, Welfare have just 3 points from their 18 games played and they will need a miracle to stay in this division next season.
Rainworth MW are 6th following their 1-1 draw at Stavely MW and are still in contention with the other promotion hopefuls.
Next in the league table are Leeds Carnegie, 7 points behind the leading pack with 22 points from 14 games played.
The other games today were Yorkshire Amateurs surprising 5-0 victory over Appleby Frodingham and Tadcaster Albions unlucky defeat at Bottesford Town, Albion were 2-0 down but fought back to 2-2 only to lose out to an 85th minute winner from Town's John Baross.
Finally Rossington Main received yet another hammering, today it was the turn of Grimsby Borough to leave the Welfare Ground with all the points in their 5-1 victory over 'Main'.
Scarborough Athletic will hopefully be back to winning ways next Saturday at AFC Emley, where a massive travelling support will once again be cheering the team on.
