THE weather had its first big say of the season with several Stratford and District Alliance fixtures being postponed.

It was raining goals at Welford where Rich Skan continued his prolific season with four more goals as Dog and Partridge hit 11 without reply in Cutler Division Two.

Ben Whitmore chipped in with a hat-trick, while the section produced two more winners on the road with Bidford scoring five without reply at Park Tavern and Long Compton boasting a quartet of scorers in a 4-1 win at Red Alert.

Only three more matches survived and there wasn't a home win to be found.

Cubbington Albion came closest but were held 2-2 in Herald Division One at Bidford, while four goals apiece for Badsey United and FISSC Res earned wins on the road.

The latter only had one goal to spare at Tysoe in the first division, while it was far easier for Badsey who eased to three top flight points at FISSC.
