Bridlington Town remain at the summit ahead of Retford United on goal difference after both sides enjoyed comfortable victories.

Bridlington were 4-1 winners at Tadcaster Albion with Craig Hogg netting twice to make it 33 goals in all competitions this season, his second a superb lob over the Brewers keeper from near the halfway line.

Retford won 4-0 at home to bottom side Selby Town who tasted their fifth straight defeat courtesy of an Adam Scott brace and goals from Chris Baugh and Warren Hatfield.

Staveley Miners Welfare kept in touching distance in third after their 3-1 victory at Barton Town Old Boys.

Ryan Damms struck his 24th of the season on the half-hour before James Walker doubled Staveley's advantage before the interval.

Jake Stannard struck twice to help Winterton Rangers to a 3-0 win at Armthorpe Welfare and keep them fourth in the table.

Parkgate climbed into fifth with a 6-0 victory at home to Lincoln Moorlands Railway, with three of the goals - two from Matthew Needham and the third from Danny Barlow - coming in the first quarter-of-an-hour.

Railway, who have gone six games without a victory, are now looking nervously over their shoulders at the bottom two after Maltby Main moved to within four points of them with 1-0 win at Nostell Miners Welfare.

Scarborough Athletic dropped out of the top five after they were beaten 2-1 by visitors Arnold Town, Luke Smithson and Martin Carruthers getting the points for the Eagles before there was a late consolation from Curtis Bernard for the hosts.

Handsworth won the battle of the top two in Division One to claim their eighth straight victory and extend their lead at the top to three points.

Hosts Pontefract Collieries were two up after 37 minutes with Greig McGrory and Gary Lumley seemingly putting them in full control.

Bottom side Appleby Frodingham suffered their twelfth consecutive defeat as they went down 7-1 at home to Shirebrook Town.
