Chasetown remain unbeaten after seeing off Wisbech in a game of seven yellow cards. Coleshill’s 100% winning start was ended by Stamford. Sam Moore’s first half red card didn’t help Coleshill’s cause and Stamford eased to a  3-0  win with goals by Freeman, Duffy and Johnson. Spalding pulled off a fine win at Corby with goals by Assombalonga and Broccoli. The day’s biggest attendance was at Halesowen where 732 saw their victory over promotion rivals Belper.
