It was a record breaking afternoon in the Toolstation NCEL on Saturday despite a number of games having to be called off due to frozen pitches.Brigg Town scored the most goals ever by a team in an NCEL league or cup fixture as they thrashed
Teversal 14-1 in Division One where five other matches fell foul to the weather whilst two were also postponed in the Premier Division.
And,
Athersley Recreation's home clash with
Thackley in the top flight was abandoned after 64 minutes due to fog with the visitors leading 1-0.
Premier Division leaders
Grimsby Borough are now five points clear at the top of the table following their 5-1 win at
Goole AFC.
Jordan Barnett and Lewis Collins gave them a two goal lead by the midway point of the first half, Richie Burdett and Adam Drury then doubled their advantage in the second period before Luke Williams grabbed a consolation for the Vikings on 80 minutes and Drury netted his second to complete the scoring in stoppage time.
Garforth Town's 3-1 win at
Knaresborough Town moves them up to third, eight points behind the top two, Jed Zanos' penalty added to by second half goals from Lee Turner and Hass Gorji after Sam Cook had equalised for the home side.
A Leon Howarth double, with his second coming in injury time, snatched
Handsworth a 2-1 win that sees them leapfrog over their hosts
Penistone Church into fifth, Elliott Firth with the Penguins' goal.
Staveley Miners Welfare drop to seventh following their 3-1 loss at
Barton Town, Rieves Boocock with the Trojans' strike but a Samuel Kay own goal and a brace from Benjamin Hinchliffe ensured the win for the Swans who consolidate tenth spot.
Two penalties in the last ten minutes from Johnathan Williams saw
Maltby Main claim a 4-2 victory at
Emley AFC and that moves the Miners up into eighth spot whilst the hosting Pewits stay seventeenth.
And,
Hemsworth Miners Welfare are now only two points away from moving out of the relegation zone after their third win of the season.

Hallam after their wins, a Daniel East double helping Ferriby to a 3-1 victory at promotion rivals
Harrogate Railway Athletic.
Josh Whiteley scored the opener for the Villagers whilst Daniel Thirkell's penalty was the only goal for the Rail who stay fourth.
Brigg, meanwhile, doubled their tally from the previous week's 7-0 win at Clipstone with their record-breaking victory over bottom side Teversal.
They were 5-1 up at the interval with Dayle Hutson's hat-trick, and one each from Jack Bowskin and Jonathan Oglesby, replied by a Cameron Pinnick penalty for the visitors.
But, Bowskin's second, five for Joshua Batty and three for Scott Phillips racked up nine more goals in the second half for the Zebras against a Teversal side who remain thirteen points adrift of safety.
There were two each for Sam Robinson and James Piercy as
Hall Road Rangers ran out 6-0 home winners over
Clipstone, Conner Harman and Reece Moody with the other goals.
And, a double for Frederick Tracey helped
