DIVISION TWO
In this keenly contested match Barrow took on local rivals Kegworth Imps Barrow went ahead in the first half after Jack Slawson was first to a though ball to lift the ball over the keeper into the top left corner. Kegworth came out in the second half with real intent to get the equaliser and went close on a number of occasions. This left gaps at the back proven on a counter-attack when Lewis Fraser latched onto a left wing cross and turned outside the box to volley over the advancing keeper. Kegworth felt hard done to and continued with their advance but the Barrow back four protected their keeper well. Another well crafted break-away saw Fraser cross to the unmarked Slawson to slot home a third.

Kegworth never found top gear as visitors Barrow Town cruised to a comfortable victory last Sunday. Town took the lead in the first half after a slip from a home defender left the Barrow player, one on one with the home keeper and he finished coolly. A number of misplaced passes meant that The Imps created very little in front of goal, there best chase being a powerful free kick that deflected kindly into the keepers arms.
The half time break brought no change of fortune for the home side, and as the half wore on, The Imps switched to a three man defence, but it was Barrow who took advantage of the tactical change from Kegworth, adding two more goals in quick succession. This finally woke Kegworth from their slumber, and they started to put some pressure on the visitors defence. Chances came and went for the home side before Rhys Kearton netted with just six minutes to play. The Imps threw everything at Barrow, but Town held firm to win three well deserved points. Westfield showed that they have it in them to do well this season with some glimpses of exceptional football, however, there were moments that we showed that we need to concentrate at the back and support from the midfield. The two strikers both scored great hat-tricks and single goals from both Cameron Morton and Joe Findlay saw Westfield through to a well deserved victory. Further goals could have been added but for some outstanding saves from the Barwell Keeper.

DIVISION FOUR
Cosby looking to make it six straight wins got off to a sloppy start in the first 10 minutes It took right back Jacob Hibbert to lift his team by winning possession and going on a 50 yrd barn storming run to provide Chris Musson with his first goal. Cosby always looked on top with Conner Tanner Marshalling the defence allowing Kieran Matthews and Jordy Hodgson to run Loughborough ragged, Kieran scoring the second and Chris Musson making it three just before half time. The second half was a one was one way street, Loughborough heads were down, Jordy scored two and Cosby should have scored a hatful in the last 10 minutes but Loughborough keeper made a couple of outstanding saves, along with some bad finishing. George Bentley did score his first league goal with a well taken effort. Loughborough managed a consolation goal with 8 minutes left. Man of the Match Jordy could not secure his hat trick but not for the lack of trying. So Cosby 6 from 6 cementing their top spot and looking like a good season in prospect. Second placed Houghton beat Countesthorpe Athletic 03 4-0. Houghton scored the first goal from a free kick after just 90 seconds. James Boden supplied the cross and Ben Stephens tapped it in from close range. Houghton doubled the lead when Boden scored a great goal from about 30 yards that gave the keeper no chance. After the break Houghton continued to press even though playing into the wind. Boden got his second and Tom Wells scored from close range for number four, Birstall Community college netted the highest win with a 7 - 1 demolition of Shakka FC with Joel Johnson (2), Will West, Jordan Blackshaw, Ashley Newcombe, a Own goal & Ross Masterson completing the scoring.
