Ellis Hudson gave the Cobbydalers a 33rd minute lead and Kayle Price doubled their advantage early in the second period before Ben Grech-Brooksbank opened the scoring for the hosts just before the hour mark.

Hudson's second restored Silsden's two goal cushion but Thackley refused to lie down with Liam Hudson netting their second in the 82nd minute and that was the end of the scoring in what was an entertaining encounter.

George Doyle struck twice for Golcar United who keep themselves within touching distance of top spot after a 3-0 win at Rossington Main with Alfie Wilkinson's injury-time strike proving to be the icing on the cake.

Penistone Church came from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 at home with Knaresborough Town to move above Thackley into fourth after George Thewlis and Luke Stewart had put the visitors seemingly in control by the half-hour mark.

Hallam missed out on a chance to jump into the top five as they went down 4-2 at home to Handsworth in a game that saw the visiting Ambers race into a 3-1 lead by the eighteenth minute thanks to a Harry Jessop brace and a Fernando Tavares strike.

Brodie Litchfield found the net for the Countrymen in the whirlwind start and Oliver Fearon reduced the deficit to one goal by half-time and that is how it stayed until Mitchell Dunne rubber stamped the away victory in second period stoppage time.

Jacob Pearson's last-gasp winner grabbed Parkgate a 3-2 home win over Winterton Rangers to move the Steelmen up to eighth whilst Rangers remain in the bottom two.

There was a 2-1 home victory for Campion as Ewan Gregson and Samuel Bradley netted to give the Red and Blacks the win over Frickley Athletic that sees them up into ninth spot, a point ahead of Handsworth who are now tenth after their victory.

Basement side Goole AFC took an early lead through Shay Muirhead but any hopes of a much-needed win at Pickering Town were quickly snuffed out as the hosts struck three times within the opening nine minutes, Harley Dawson, Omar Sanyang and Ethan Kachosa with the Pikes' strikes.

Souelymane Coulibaly added their fourth before the interval but anyone expecting more goals were to be disappointed as the game finished 4-1 in favour of the hosts.

And, Eccleshill United thought they had rescued a point at Tadcaster Albion with Hass Gorji's 87th minute equaliser but Elliott Andrew's second of the afternoon came in stoppage time to ensure the hosting Brewers secured a 3-2 victory.

Horbury's dominance in Division One continues after their 2-0 win at Nostell Miners Welfare means they are now eleven points clear at the top of the table.

James Cusworth and Samuel Kyeremeh both pounced just before half-time to claim the win in one of two games played on Friday night.

The other saw Worsbrough Bridge Athletic prevail 6-2 in the Barnsley derby at home to Athersley Recreation with Keelan Grist grabbing a couple for the hosts and there was one each for Joshua Brown, Lewis O'Connor, Lloyd Smith and Connor Glavin.

Both of the bottom sides picked up vital home wins with Appleby Frodingham beating Armthorpe Welfare by a single goal from Dean McCarthy and Danilo Mossolo's 80th minute strike saw Yorkshire Amateur defeat Louth Town 2-1.

It means App-Frod and the Ammers have closed the gap to safety to nine points as they both look to rejuvenate their campaigns in the second half of the season.

And, it was a point apiece for Shelley and Glasshoughton Welfare after their 2-2 draw with Bubacary Conteh Samateh snatching an equaliser for visiting Welfare in stoppage time.
