Reading Football League round-up
Senior Division
Dean Jordan came off the bench to secure a 3-2 win for Woodcote Stoke Row against a South Reading side which finished with nine men.
Andy Bullett and James Hancock were also on target for the visitors before Jordan, a 72nd-minute substitute, grabbing the winner five minutes from time.
Ryan Adams and Brett Rann replied for South Reading.
But Adams was later sent off following two yellow cards, while Ryan Kingsbeer also saw red.
South Reading?s next game is against Marlow United in a showdown between the current leaders and last season?s champions.
Marlow warmed up with a 4-1 win over bottom club Rotherfield United.
Rotherfield took a shock lead with a penalty from Ricky Sidhu after striker Ben Keable had been impeded when going for a cross.
On their own admission, Marlow were below par even though the scoreline suggests otherwise and they struggled to gain a foothold in the game.
They even needed assistance to score their equaliser when Rotherfield defender Guy Bickerton rose to head clear a cross in the 34th minute from James Flint?s cross, but inadvertently sent it inside a post for an own goal.
Mitchel Woodward put United in front soon after the break but it was not until the 84th minute that they really surged ahead. Adam Dickens gained possession and ran 40 yards before slotting the ball past the keeper to notch his 30th goal of the season, making him the highest scorer in the division.
Jonathan Mason took until the third minute of injury-time to register Marlow?s fourth goal to give a flattering look to the scoreline.
Reading YMCA had Jonathan Adey to thank for scoring twice as they beat Theale convincingly 4-1.
Andrew Tipper and substitute Kieron Mabbutt were also on the scoresheet, while Theale sub Keyron Hylton replied on the hour mark.
Mortimer, in fourth place, were involved in a tensely fought encounter with Taplow United and finally grabbed the game?s only goal through Michael Davies, just five minutes from time.
Unity were beaten 4-1 by Sandhurst Devels with goals from Thomas Copper, David Evans, Mark Farrell and Tom Wilde.
REME Arborfield are third in the Premier Division after a home walkover win against Ashridge Park who could not raise a team.
Divisions 1 and 2
Chris Waring?hit six goals as Winnersh Rangers inflicted a remarkable 10-2 defeat on Division 1 leaders Sonning.
Sonning started confidently enough with Nick Newell heading them in front after only five minutes and he added another 10 minutes later when he drove in from 18 yards.
But with several players missing through work commitments and injuries, they were soon stopped in their tracks by a goal avalanche from Rangers.
Waring was their chief destroyer, hitting a double hat-trick and Tom Slade added another two goals.
Ethan Jerrome and Andrew Haskins, just after the break, increased Sonning?s misery by getting on the scoresheet.
Woodley Town A, in third place, similarly hammered Wargrave 5-0.
Danny Isaiew and Andrew Dawe scored in the first half with Jake Brooks, substitute David Logan and Jordan Sawyer completing the rout.
Division 2 leaders Woodley Hammers came off best in a 10-goal thriller away to Wokingham & Emmbrook A.
Hammers? goals in a 6-4 win came from Kevin Brown (2), George Hepburn and Jamie Smith.
Royal Albion travelled to Twyford & Ruscombe and after a close-fought game edged home by the solitary goal.
Also in Division 2, Frilsham & Yattendon Res beat Taplow United Res 3-2.
Divisions 3 and 4
Matthew Williamson marked his return from injury with a hat-trick for Eldon Celtic in their 5-0 Division 3 win over lowly Sonning Sports.
He had been out for a month through injury.
James Edwards also scored while Joseph Carroll celebrated his debut with a fine strike.
Table toppers Emmbrook narrowly beat bottom club The Hop Leaf 2-1 after struggling to hit their best form.
In the reverse fixture, Emmbrook had won 13-1 but this time they allowed Hop Leaf to take an early lead before Keiran Painter and Rob Sherwood, three minutes from time, snatched victory.
AFC Corinthians Res also had a convincing 4-1 win, this time away to Sonning A for whom John Naylor hit a consolation.
David Givens scored Corinthians? with an audacious 40-yard lob.
Darren Russell added their second with a tidy finish.
A Sonning defender diverted a cross into his own goal for their third and a Robin Shaw header rounded things off.
Leaders Royal Oranje beat FC Winnersh 5-1 in Divison 4.
A Matt Bacon hat-trick and further goals from William Day and Alistair Drury made up their total.
Sam Randle netted a penalty for Winnersh.
White Eagles?blasted 14 goals without reply past The Hop Leaf Res with Mateusz Krochmal, Jarek Michalowski, Adrian Zarnowski and Krzysztof Cymek all scoring twice while Pawel Swiderski hit a hat-trick. Other goals came from Krystian Januszkiewisc, Bartos Mietlicki and Mariusz Salanski.
SRCC crushed AFC Corinthians 8-3 with goals coming from Adam Williams (4), Oliver Windiate, Darren Windiate and a Sam Jordan penalty.
Substitute Martin Clifford hit two for Shinfield Village who beat Woodley Hammers res 4-3.
Stuart Clarke and Dwayne Goswell got their other goals.
Cup round-up

Christopher Gerrard netted their first goal after 17 minutes and Sanchez Cammock made it 2-0 just five minutes later.
Goalkeeper Elton Cristophe performed well in keeping a clean sheet.
And Blackwood?s treble sealed the convincing win.
Woodley Town Res travelled to Pinewood in the same competition and things looked gloomy for them when they went 2-0 down as Darryn Alexander netted a goal in either half for the home side.
But Duncan Cantwell began the fightback and Connor Cregan equalised to take the game into extra-time.
Pinewood went on the attack and were pressing for a winner in the second period of extra-time when a breakaway saw Cantwell race clear.
His cross was driven into the net by Tim Green with virtually the last kick of the match to grab a 3-2 victory for Town.
Sandhurst Devels found Premier Divison leaders Newbury Town Res far too strong for them, putting up a brave fight before losing 9-1.
Christopher Evans netted Devels? only goal.
Daniel Crane and Elliott Paul led the charge for Newbury, both scoring twice, with other goals netted by Gary Dredge, Carl Jenner, James Doherty and substitute Albert Benton.
Rotherfield United Res knocked out Westwood United Res by a 3-1 margin.
Paul Langham set the ball rolling by scoring in the 10th minute for Rotherfield. Craig Oatham netted on the hour and 10 minutes later Paul Arthur completed their scoring.
Westwood?s goal came from a penalty converted by Daniel Nicholson.
Cookham Dean had an easy passage in the Norfolkian Senior Cup, hammering Walters Leisure, from the Wycombe and District League, 7-1 with Jonathan Schaaf hitting a hat-trick.
