Rothbury make progress in cup
In the North Northumberland League's Sanderson Cup, Rothbury kept up their good early-season form to ease past Berwick Town.
Alnwick Town Reserves and Shilbottle were level after normal time. Two extra-time goals saw Alnwick through, while Ashington Athletic made the trip to Berwick worthwhile by netting six times in the victory over Berwick United Reserves.
It took extra time before Lowick went through at the expense of Bedlington Terrier Reserves.
In the Runciman Cup, Lynemouth had Darren Burn netting four times in a seven-goal success over Rothbury Reserves.
At Wooler, it also took extra time before the home club made progress at the expense of Embleton WR.
Belford continue to lead Division Two - but only after just edging out local rivals Bamburgh Castle.
Kevin Greshon and Chris Hay were the Belford scorers, with Kevin Potts replying for Bamburgh.
Springhill had Stevie Eamons and Mark Reid on target as they kept up their challenge with a win over Boulmer, whose single reply came from Mathew Sullivan.
