Here are the latest results from the Chester and Wirral Football League...

Friday 05/09/25:

Liam Bradley was the star of the show for Newton Athletic, bagging a brace in their emphatic 4-0 win over Hoole Rovers. Cal Dicks and Dan Christian were also on target as Newton climbed to the top of the CWFL Queensferry Sports Premier Division—albeit having played a game more than nearest challengers Whitegate United.

There was a surprise result in the CWFL Olympic Trophies Championship as Clarence FC suffered a 3-2 home defeat at the hands of Sutton Rangers Reserves. Despite goals from James Smith and Charlie Gouldson, Clarence were undone by a double from Danny Lewis and a strike from Joel Hunter.

Mersey Royal Vets show no signs of relinquishing their grip on the CWFL Tarvin Precision Vets Division One title with a commanding 4-0 win over Hooton Vets. New boys Dave Rudge and Shaun Parrington both found the net, with Lee Davey and Kris Hesketh also getting in on the act.

In Division Two, Birkenhead Vets edged out Neston Nomads Vets 3-1. Ricci Loughran, the Birkenhead player-manager, opened the scoring early on before Rob Marrs equalised for Nomads. However, second-half goals from Lee Gibson and James Atherton secured the points for Birkenhead.

Elsewhere, Eastham Vets looked on course for victory against Hartford Vets thanks to Mike Haddock's goal, but a dramatic last-minute equaliser from Craig Millington ensured a share of the spoils.

Higher Bebington Kelma Vets picked up a dramatic 4-3 win away at newly promoted Winsford Vets. Aaron Bird netted a brace, while Simon Tierney and Steve Forster also chipped in. Winsford’s goals came courtesy of a brace by Ste Warburton and a David Garstang single.

Division Two action saw Ellesmere Port Red Lions come out on top in a 10-goal thriller, defeating Chester Nomads Vets 6-4.
