EASTER is the traditional time for promotion and relegation issues to take shape and last Saturday's Warrington Soccer League fixtures followed the fashion.

The Premier Division race remained in the control of leaders Owens Corning, who were inactive and powerless to prevent Sidac closing their gap with a handsome 5-2 win over relegation haunted Vulcan.

Riverplate look to take some reward from a tough season, with a 2-0 win over Village Social. Goals came from Harrop and Forster in their Drinkwater Trophy tie.

The Division One champions look certain to be St. Albans Bank Quay, who have remained unbeaten in the league for months. They beat Runcorn Albion 4-2.

Grappenhall Sports held Irlam Catholic Club to a 1-1 draw, Villano netting for Irlam.

The form team in Division Three are surely Crontonians, who have won five games on the run, hitting 31 goals in the process. Lomax were their latest victims, falling to a hat-trick by Gannon.
