Cockfosters 0 Southend Manor 1

Southend Manor appointed Michael Walther as their new manager in midweek and he took all the point in his first game in charge. A Ryan Imbert header in the second half was enough to see Southend Manor win the contest which sees them move up to 15^th while Cockfosters are now 9^th.

Ilford 1 Hashtag United 2

Hashtag United are 3^rd after a 2-1 win at Cricklefield. Ross Gleed handed the visitors an 11^th minute lead, but then Tyson Talanya finished a powerful run with a shot that brought the scores level in the 37^th minute. However the visitors re-took the lead in the 50^th minute when Jesse Waller-Lassen let fly from outside the box, capturing all the points in the process. Ilford, who battled hard in this game, drop down to 13^th.

Sawbridgeworth Town 0 Hoddesdon Town 6

Hoddesdon piled more misery on bottom-placed Sawbridgeworth Town after rifling six without reply at Crofters End. It took only seven minutes for the visitors to take the lead, with Aaron Ramthor the scorer. Jordan Halls then added a further two, Isaac Marfo-Jones struck from the penalty spot, with Harrison Cage and Cyres Babaie also putting their names down on the score sheet. The win moves Hoddesdon Town up to 2^nd.

St Margaretsbury 3 Enfield 3

It was a point apiece after a topsy-turvy game at the Recreation Ground that saw both teams take turns in having the lead before late goals saw the game finish in a 3-3 draw. Matt Frew opened the account for Enfield in the 11^th minute, but Napier Brown levelled that up twelve minutes later. The hosts then took the lead in the 55^th minute when Andy Greenslade struck. But the final ten minutes saw Enfield level up via Tyler Fowles, then take the lead for the second time in the 86^th minute courtesy of Josh Woodcock. The hosts however were able to find an eqauliser in the final minute with Ryan Reed finding the target and salvaging a point for the hosts. St Margaretsbuty are now in 17^th, Enfield one place below them, both on 5 points with goal difference separating the two.

Stansted 1 Woodford Town 2

The Woods left Hargrave Park with all three points thanks to first half goals from Georges Kebi and Chris John. Jack Mitchell was able to cut the deficit but the visitors held on to register a win that now sees them sit in 5^th spot, while Stansted are down in 12^th.

Tower Hamlets 2 Saffron Walden Town 3

Tower Hamlets gave leaders Saffron Walden Town a hell of a scare at Mile End Stadium. Leading by two goals, both scored by Yoan Edoukou, it was looking like the young Hamlets side were about to get one over the table-toppers. But then Ross Adams, Spike Bell and Greg Strong stepped to the plate to score goals that saw the Bloods win the game.

West Essex 1 Clapton 2

There may be a few troubles off the pitch, but on the pitch on Saturday the Tons snaired a welcome three points at West Essex. Mario Gjini broke the deadlock in the 35^th minute, with Brad Russell levelling up for the hosts in the 75^th, However five minutes from time Baseer Ishanzadeh supplied the Tons with the winning goal that sees Clapton now up to 14^th, three places behind West Essex in 11^th.
