Daniel Critchlow and Adam Hird bagged hat-tricks with William Gough and Jonjo Keogh netting a brace apiece while Marcus Newby and Kale Thoma were also among the scorers. Heaton are only a point above bottom club Woodkirk Valley Reserves so this result certainly does their points difference no favours.

That said, third-bottom Birstall Rovers are also only a point ahead of Woodkirk - and face leaders Stanningley Old Boys on Saturday

Woodkirk, meanwhile, led second-placed Garforth Rangers thanks to a Daniel Richardson goal in the 52nd minute, but the hosts rallied to nick it with a couple of late goals from Jake Wright. Stanningley stretched their lead at the top to 14 points thanks to a 4-3 win over determined mid-tablers Colton Athletic Reserves who look on track to avoid being dragged into the relegation melee.
