OAKLEY United opened up a ten-point gap at the top of the Premier Division with a 2-0 victory over Bletchingdon.

A brace from Aaron Rogers proved to be the difference between the two sides and he opened the scoring after 20 minutes from a free-kick.

Rogers made the home side pay on 70 minutes, capitalising on a defensive error to seal victory for the league leaders.

Kidlington Old Boys held on for their first Division 1 win of the season, though they had to endure a nervy ending before beating North Oxford 3-2.

But they had to hang on in the second period after a brace from Max Palmer gave the hosts hope of a comeback, but they could not find an equaliser.

Charlton United ended Kidlington Res’ 100 per cent start to the season, holding the home side to a 1-1 draw.

Leaders Middleton Cheney were unable to capitalise on Kidlington’s slip, after falling to their first defeat of the season against Broughton & North Newington.

Eynsham had taken a 3-0 lead through Tim Wharton, Andy Glossop and Tom Olley and despite Gerken finding the scoresheet for Freeland, the game appeared to be over when Glossop netted his second to make it 4-1.

But Gerken struck twice more to set up a frantic final few minutes as the hosts ran out of time to find an equaliser.

A fantastic solo goal from Darren Gascoyne looked like giving Oakley United Res a home win over North Oxford Res.

But they were undone by a late equaliser from David Hutton to give the visitors a share of the spoils.
