Leaders Brandon Town took a big step towards the Premier Division title without kicking a ball on Saturday.

Town's game at Wroxham Reserves was postponed, but the chasing pack all failed to take advantage.

Second-placed Sheringham needed an own goal to take a point from a 1-1 draw at fourth-placed Blofield, whose goal came from Danny Brown, while Cromer, in third, were beaten 2-1 at home by Sprowston Athletic, whose goals came from Scott McKinney and Philip King. Neil Bugdale was on target for the Crabs.

It all means Brandon are a point ahead of Sheringham, but with two games in hand, while the gap between second and third is now six, with Blofield three points back. Lewis Broomfield scored a hat-trick in the biggest goalfeast of the day, with Acle United hammering Dersingham Rovers 7-1. John Curtis, Richard Hodds, Chris Holmes and Lee Cosgrove were the other scorers, with Gary English on target for the visitors.

Bottom side St Andrews won only their third game of the season, two goals from Desmond Fitzgerald securing a 2-1 home win over Attleborough Town, who are just one place above the strugglers. The visitors' goal came from Mark Almond.

Andrew Blowers scored the only goal of the game as Norwich Union beat Beccles while Halvergate United beat Mattishall 2-0 (Ian Stones and Jamie Long).

In Division One, leaders Hempnall were 1-0 winners at Scole United, thanks to Paul Franklin.
