Harrogate Railway consolidated their top four position by putting Nottinghamshire-based side Ollerton Town to the sword in a 3-0 win.

Dan Thirkell’s penalty and Marcus Day’s second half double earned Railway their win which helps them keep the pace with Hallam, North Ferriby and Hallam ahead of three massive fixtures.

One blow for Railway was the dismissal of Kieran Greenway for two bookable offences.

Hallam remain top as they won 2-0 at Hall Road Rangers.

Kieran Watson scored in the first half and Iren Wilson netted late-on.

Selby Town manager Christian Fox

Luke Balderson preserved Christian Fox’s Selby Town’s long unbeaten run as he hit the late equaliser in the 2-2 draw at Retford FC.

Selby were heading to an eighth consecutive victory as they led through Harry Clapham’s goal until the 78th minute.

Retford then scored two quick-fire goals before Balderson rescued Selby.

Threadbare Armthorpe Welfare pushed Brigg Town all the way and were very unlucky to lose 2-1 after the title-chasing side scored in the last minute.

Rhys Plater put Armthorpe ahead in the fifth minute.

Nostell Miners Welfare lost 4-1 at Shirebrook Town.

Shirebrook were out of sight by half-time and Joe O’Neill’s second half goal was a mere consolation.
