Dereham Town continue to top the table after an impressive start

There were plenty of goals around at the weekend as Norfolk clubs continued to challenge for titles in a number of leagues.

In the Ridgeons Premier, Dereham Town bagged five without reply in a convincing win at Felixstowe and continue to head the table while Wroxham are just two points behind them in second place after a 2-0 success at Hadleigh.

Danny Beaumont continued his prolific season for The Magpies and netted a hat-trick to take his personal tally up to 19.

We're not even up to half way in the campaign yet, so if fitness and form stay firm then the youngster could be in for a quite remarkable return come May next year.

Gorleston took the plaudits in Division One.

The Greens slammed seven past Norfolk rivals Swaffham Town at Emerald Park to run out 7-2 winners and they sit sixth in the table.

Diss Town are still second after a single goal victory at home to Fakenham Town.

In the UCL Premier, King's Lynn Town were another to hit five on Saturday and it was good to see them replicate home form on their travels for a change.

Despite being prolific at The Walks Lynn, they had been struggling away from home, but their 5-1 win at Rothwell Corinthians will hopefully signal a turning point.

The victory also means the second placed Linnets keep the pressure on leaders St Neots Town who are three points better off.

It would seem Lowestoft Town had an eventful trip to Hastings in the Ryman Premier.

The Blues were held up on their way down meaning the game kicked off half an hour late.

They then had two sent off with dismissals for both Lee McGlone and Andrew Fisk, but still managed to draw 0-0.

Then, on the way back, the Orwell Bridge was closed so they endured a diversion that prolonged their return.
