Littletown move second after walkover victory

Littletown moved up to second place in the West Riding County Amateur League Premier Division after they were awarded a walkover when bottom side Lepton Highlanders failed to raise a side for last Saturday’s game.

Littletown have also been awarded three points after TVR United failed to raise a side for their game earlier in the season and they trail leaders Golcar United by 10 points with two games in hand.

Littletown are due to visit Lepton this Saturday for one of their games in hand, before turning their attentions to the Wheatley Cup semi-final against Hartshead at Liversedge FC next Thursday (April 11, 7.30pm).
