A nine-goal thriller in the Premier Division saw The Gloster Arms come back from 4-3 down with 10 minutes to play to win 5-4 against Brewers Athletic.

Shaun Smith (2), Aaron Richards, Dave Lawrence and Jack Cuilty were on target for Gloster.

Baylis Cup holders Hallow are through to the quarter-finals of this season’s competition after a 6-2 win against Malvern Radar.
