THE weather severely hindered the Workington and District Sunday League fixtures at the weekend – with only three games going ahead.

There was one game in each division with 17 goals shared around the six contestants.

Borough FC did not contribute, however, in their division one clash with FC32 as they were beaten at home 3-0.

Stuart Gray (2) and Tom Pardini scored the goals for FC 32 who are now among four teams who have collected six points so far.

In the top flight two of the three teams without a point met at Wakefield Road and they were also the two teams who won promotion from division one last season.

However, it was the runners-up Deer Orchard who beat the champions Dearham 5-3 in a game which apparently could have gone either way.

Keith Skillen made the difference, scoring a hat-trick for Orchard, while Nat Mitchell and Daniel Burns were also on the mark.

Rab Bower, Gavin Manchester and Gary Morrison replied for Dearham who stay bottom of the pile.

Salterbeck are now top in Division Two, but they might have expected to open a bigger advantage as they could only draw 3-3 at Flimby.

Sean Pilling (2) and Brian Straughton scored for Salterbeck with Darren Wilson (2) and David Young on target for the homesters.

Fixtures (1.30pm ko) – League Cup first round: The Well v Bounty, FC32 v Flimby, Miners Arms v Glasson Rangers, Senhouse Street v Dearham, Red House v Salterbeck, Northside v Captain Nelson, Letters Inn v Borough.

League Cup second round: Deer Orchard v Bluebell.
