Winsford United enjoyed their derby win over Northwich Victoria, and now occupy a higher league position over their local rivals for the first time in many a year:
@simmo_on_sport Great result for us today!

Question - When were @WinsfordUnited last above Vics in the league? We think around 1967!
New Mills assistant manager Gareth Cross was happy with his side's display in the 3-1 win over Eccleshall:
Great performance today played an hour with ten men. Showed great character to win the game. Always looked the most likely to score more

Ashton Athletic Chairman Jimmy Whyte was similarly enthused about his side's 4-2 win over Runcorn Linnets in the FA Cup:

All seems happy in the Whitchurch Alport camp too, judging by Simon Everall's summing up after the 3-0 win over Stockport Town:
Brilliant today @alportfc and as always great turnout from the locals. We go again. ⚽

Aside of the football, the tuck shop at Yockings Park looks worth a visit for anyone with a sweet tooth:
Whitchurch Alport has the best tuck shop in the league! @alportfc pic.twitter.com/Y2e7hwA6rV

And there was solace in defeat for Congleton Town, as hosts Hyde United were clearly impressed by their performance at Ewen Fields in the FA Cup tie between the two sides:
Very good team Congleton. Will do very well this season
