Jordan Webb and Division 4 leaders Farnley Sports left cellar-dwelling hosts Leeds Modernians in a bit of a spin.

Webb finished the game with a hat-trick as Sports powered to an 8-2 victory that leaves them 10 points clear at the top. David Clough and Joshua Handley bagged a goals brace apiece for the visitors with Jamie Snellgrove also getting his name on the scoresheet.

Tom Cluderay and Ben Lawton netted what turned out to be consolation goals for Mods who sit third-bottom in the standings but well clear of the two relegation favourites who went head to head on Saturday. And it was bottom club Crofton Sports who edged matters at Idle Reserves, 4-3.

Ben Horner, first-half sub’ Kerry Muncaster and Jamie Dann - just after the hour - bagged the goals for United.

Ealandians III stay in fourth place after a close-call 4-3 win at mid-table Old Centralians for whom Farayi Guzha and James Lewsley (2) were on target.

Fifth-placed Wortley III, who also have games in hand on the teams around them, kept the pressure on the top four - other than leaders Farnley, perhaps - with a 6-2 victory at Methley United Open Age.

Sub’ Connor McLauchlan scored both goals for Methley while Lee Harris and Tristan Simon bagged two apiece for the visitors with Josh Milson and Shane Thompson also contributing to the six-goal tally.
