DIVISION One leaders The King Harry, with Phil Evans and Chris Allen twice on target, must have thought they were cruising to another win, 3-0 up at half-time at Sefton Earls.
But the Earls had other ideas and struck back with goals from Paul Brown (2) and Simon Glover pulling them level to share the points with a 3-3 draw.
Regent caused another upset with a 3-2 win over Larkspur, a penalty miss not helping Larkspur’s chase to catch The King Harry.
The second division had Springfield beating Quarry Green Res with goals from Carlo Hope and Tommy Gore and Halewood Town Ath went nap at The Breeze Hotel with double strikes from Graham Friday and Danny Reynolds and Sam Devine .
Gears United shared their nap hand around against BRNESC Youth with Ash Gibiluru, Ste Ward, Joey Brown, Jamie Bradshaw and Danny Dunn on target in the 5-1 win and Woodstreet were in seventh heaven beating Heart of the City 7-3 with a Joey Brierley hat-trick the pick of the bunch.
Linton proved too strong for STL with Tony Stewart and Paul Lambert hitting ha- tricks and AC Croxteth also had two hat tricks from Sean Clare and Arthur Johnson in the 8-0 win over Cross Keys. JOB playing in the quarter-final of the Champions Cup against North Star of Oldham, progressed through to the semi-final 4-1 (Chris Higgins 2, Jimmy Weincke, Paul Thorpe).
