Division Four, Rainhill Town 4th 2 Grange SC Reserves 2.

Grange Reserves’ fine start to the season continued with a hard fought point against a strong Rainhill Town side.

The Grange side who have continuously fought above their weight this season could not force the away win despite goals from Craig Burton and Tom Doherty and had to settle for a 2-2 result. Despite this setback they remain firmly in the promotion pack

Division One, Grange SC 7 Runcorn Albion 0.

.After a slow and indifferent start Grange began to take control of the game and took the lead through Ryan Wilde. Grange added to the lead in the late stages of the half when Aaron Lilford's fine finish took full advantage of a defensive error.

Harsh words at half time got the desired result with a totally committed display and with Grange now totally in control the goals came thick and fast and a quick-fire hat-trick for the second week in a row from Scott Robinson which included two from the spot.

Ryan Wilde added his second of the game but the main highlight of the half was the goal from Grange keeper Mitch Moores whose long kick up field evaded everyone and bounced over the stranded Runcorn keeper into the roof of the net.

A 7-0 score line a good reflection of the dominance Grange had in the game and keeps them in the promotion mix
