Atherton Collieries lost a vital top of the table clash to Runcorn Linnets, but there was a philospohical view taken in the home camp on the result:
Bad day but if we were told at start of the season we would be in this position with 8 games left we would have took it #inourownhands

At another promotion clash, well done to the Bootle supporters and officials who organised a collection for the Gracie's Goal charity supported by 1874 Northwich and their goalkeeper Greg Hall:
@VickiEngland74 @Bootle_FC @greg_hall86 You're very welcome. Brilliant what the club and Greg have done for the charity. Class act.

Whitchurch Alport had their game at Carlisle City postponed, so their supporters got their fix of action at the game between fellow promotion contenders Alsager Town and Charnock Richard:

Bacup Borough enjoyed a home win over Stockport Town, but there was one vital ingredient missing from the usual matchday experience at the Brian Boys West View Stadium:
Due to circumstances beyond our control like the cooker breaking & its replacement in cyber space, there will be no prem pie available sat.😥

Memories of the past shared by Ashton Town Chairman Mark Hayes will resonate with many of us over a certain age - anyone who doesn't understand his sentiments should check with Dad or Grandad for an explanation:
Sitting in all day on Twitter checking results takes me back to the days of teletext, and then religiously going for the Manchester Pink too

There's nothing worse than raucous visitors upsetting the ambience of a tranquil afternoon:
New Mills fans told to move from behind the goal-apparently too noisy
