Swaffham Town moved up to second place in the Thurlow Nunn First Division after hammering visitors Norwich CBS 6-1 to make it eight wins on the trot,

Those present at Shoemakers Lane witnessed a demonstration of clinical football played by a team that have gelled into a formidable unit.

Ryan Pearson opened his account in the ninth minute after Joe Jackson had played him through, shooting across the box, with his effort going in off the left hand post.

The visitors looked a threat playing long balls over the back four but their tactics didn't trouble the home defence.

The second goal came eight minutes before half-time, Luis Duarte driving home a spilled ball from 15 yards.

The Pedlars continued to push forward after the break and were awarded a penalty when Pearson was brought down in the 60th minute. It was a clear-cut decision and the same player left the keeper with no chance.

Jackson made it four just three minutes later, his goal-bound shot taking a slight deflection ensuring it passed the keeper.

Norwich CBS clawed one back in the 83rd minute but substitute Matthew Blackford put the game to bed on the stroke of time, turning and wrong-footing the keeper from eight yards.

The icing on the cake came in added time, Pearson getting his hat-trick when he curled a shot into the top left hand corner.

On Saturday Swaffham travel to Little Oakley, a new venue for them to visit.

The Reserves returned from Freethorpe with a well-deserved point, Alfie Brindle providing the goal in the 1-1 draw. On Saturday second place Gorleston Reserves are the visitors to Shoemakers Lane for a top of the league battle.

The Under-18s retain top place in the Thurlow Nunn Youth North Division following an 8-1 drubbing of Easton & Otley College. There were hat-tricks for Korben Willis and Tommy Hunt, Kieran Bruce and Sam Carter providing the additional contributions. They are at home on Thursday to CSF Canaries.

The Veterans lost 9-0 to top of the league Cottage. On Sunday they travel the short distance to Necton for the battle of the A47, where they will be looking to complete the double.
