It was Second Round Qualifying in the Isuzu FA Vase at the weekend with 22 ties taking place involving Macron NCEL sides on the long Road to Wembley - and, as to be expected, there was a mixture of joy and disappointment for our clubs.

In one of five matches that saw two of our teams square off against each other, Brigg Town were 2-0 victors at Athersley Recreation, Adam Drury's opener midway through the opening period added to by a Dayle Hutson strike on the hour mark for the Zebras.

Crowle Colts edged out visitors Dearne & District with a 3-2 win having raced into a 2-0 lead by the seventh minute through a Ben Johnson penalty and a goal from Lewis Graham.

Joe Hare's own goal brought the away side back into the game with seven minutes remaining, Ashton Short restored Crowle's two goal advantage in stoppage time and Jamie Austin netted another for Dearne to keep the game on a knife edge until the final whistle.

It was even more thrilling at the Victoria Pleasure Ground where hosts Goole AFC and Horbury Town shared eight goals before the visitors went through 5-4 on penalties.

James Simmonite's first half brace for the Vikings sandwiched goals from Joseph Clegg and George Whittaker for the visitors to make it 2-2 by the interval before James Eyles and Stuart Ludlam secured a 4-2 lead for Goole early in the second period.

But, Lucas Smith struck twice within a minute midway through the period to restore parity and that's how it stayed until the shootout sent Horbury into the First Round Proper.

Alex Ingham's late leveller for Harrogate Railway Athletic cancelled out Alex Washington's strike for visitors Thackley in a 1-1 draw that saw the Rail progress 3-2 on spot kicks.

And, Liversedge went comfortably through as Lewis Barlow's double was added to by Antony Brown and Ryan Watson as they defeated Parkgate 4-0 at the Clayborn Ground.

Elsewhere, Penistone Church were one of six of our sides who were victorious against teams from other leagues on Saturday as they won 2-1 at Ashville, Robert Ludlam and Samuel Scrivens with their goals.

Oliver Green struck twice whilst Matthew Mulhearn and Alexander Clark also got on the scoresheet for Tadcaster Albion as they beat hosts Grangetown Boys Club 4-1 and there was one each for Gregory Young, Mitchell Langton, Paul Sherburn and Khalid Suleiman as Rossington Main won 4-0 at home to Dronfield Town.

Maltby Main were 3-2 victors at Staveley Miners Welfare, Jake Holdsworth, Curtis Morrison and Jordan Buckham ensuring success on their travels whilst Barton Town and Eccleshill United join them in Monday's draw for the next stage after shoot-out wins.

Barton played out a goalless draw at home to Retford FC before winning 5-4 on penalties and the Eagles triumphed 2-0 on spot kicks after a 1-1 draw with visitors Park View AFC, Mark Ferguson with an early goal for the hosts.

There was disappointment, however, elsewhere as Mitch Pattinson and Thomas Joynt scored for Armthorpe Welfare in a 6-2 home loss to Darwen whilst Ashley Flynn grabbed a brace for Wakefield AFC as they were narrowly beaten 4-3 at Chadderton.

Benjamin Dyer netted for Doncaster City but they went down 4-1 at home to Prestwich Heys and Dylan Corbett was Bottesford Town's scorer as they lost by the same scoreline at Retford United.

Blake Freeman's late equaliser grabbed Sheffield a penalty shoot-out after a 2-2 home draw with Burscough but the visitors won 4-3 on spot kicks.

Louth Town and Pickering Town were beaten by a single goal at Newark and Sherwood United and at home to Yarm & Eaglescliffe, respectively, whilst Knaresborough Town lost 3-0 at Whitley Bay.

Nostell Miners Welfare were defeated 4-0 by visitors Droylsden and Glasshoughton Welfare had an afternoon to forget as they lost 8-0 at Ramsbottom United.

Route One Rovers' tie at Holker Old Boys was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch whilst Sunday saw Campion end the weekend action with a home win against Padiham.

Max Dickinson double was added to by Jamie Allsop in a 3-1 win at the Anytime Couriers Stadium to book the hosts' place in Monday's draw.

In league action, there was one game in the Premier Division and Beverley Town have climbed up into fourth spot following a 4-0 win at Wombwell Town.

McCauley Snelgrove struck in both halves to set them on their way and the victory was rubber-stamped by Nathan Ofori and Glen Sani in the last twenty minutes.

In Division One, Worsbrough Bridge Athletic are now second as a Keelan Grist double, added to by Harrison Marvin and Josh Brown, ensured a 4-2 win at Selby Town, the Robins goals both coming from Liam Flanagan in the last quarter-of-an-hour.

Club Thorne Colliery missed out on a chance to climb into the top five as Omar Sanyang and Lewis Harding pounced each side of the interval for visitors Leeds UFCA in a 2-0 victory that lifts them up into seventh whilst their hosts stay sixth.

Peter Roberts, Jay Harris and Kevin Gonzalez were the scorers as Ilkley Town raced into a three goal lead at South Leeds by the 33rd minute.

The hosts recovered through James Law and Shay Muirhead but the points went to the away side who held on for a 3-2 win that means they are up to eleventh whilst South Leeds drop to sixteenth.

And, basement side Winterton Rangers got a much-needed second victory of the league season as they prevailed 3-2 at home to local rivals Appleby Frodingham.

All of the goals came in the opening 37 minutes with Charlie Bibby scoring twice and Liam White adding to Rangers' tally whilst Jack Tierney and Harry Lewis found the net for App-Frod.
