Gorleston picked up a morale-boosting 3-1 victory at home to FC Clacton on Saturday in the Thurlow Nunn Premier Division.
Connor Ingram opened the scoring in the 14th minute but were pegged back midway through the half when Wayne Chapman struck for the Essex side. However, that man Ingram struck again just before the hour mark and Aaron Sanders made sure of victory in the 76th minute to give the Greens their first win in four games.
Norwich United are up to fifth in the table after hammering Haverhill Rovers 5-0. Connor Parsons made it 1-0 in the 14th minute before Liam Jackson doubled their lead shortly after. Finlay Barnes made it 3-0 before half-time and there was no let-up in the second half as Barnes and Jackson added to their own personal tallies.
Thetford Town were on the wrong end of a seven-goal thriller at home to Newmarket Town as, despite Morton Hemmings scoring a hat-trick, they went down to a 4-3 defeat to the Jockeys.
Cameron Russell continued his rich vein of goalscoring form for Kirkley & Pakefield but it couldn't stop the Royals slipping to a disappointing 2-1 defeat at Brantham Athletic.
