Chesterfield Town hosted Harleys and despite dominating for long periods of the first half, only had an Andy Woolven's penalty to show for their efforts.
When midfield dynamo Mark Clement scored Town's second on the hour mark the game looked over but Harleys pulled a goal back straight away through Carl Orwin.
Clement restored the home side's two goal advantage after 75 minutes and Town would ha
ve added more goals had it not been for veteran Dean Adams in the Harleys goal.
A Scott Alton screamer was scant consolation for an extremely hard working North Wingfield side as they were overrun by a rampant Nags Head side.
Craig Frampton bagged six and Nicky Frampton a hat-trick as the Nags players ran amok.
Others Nags players on finding the target were Joe Lambird, Paul Mosley, Richard Pedley, Kieren Sturgess and Steff Gill.
Duckmanton fell to their first defeat of the season as they travelled to Clowne Miners Welfare.
Jack Weaver opened the scoring for Duckmanton courtesy of a penalty kick however, Clowne were soon back on level terms courtesy of an Andy Deane strike from 20 yards.
Dave White soon extended the lead heading home from a corner and A Gee made it three one at the interval by converting from the penalty spot.
Welfare went further ahead through Anthony Rowley before Duckmanton began to rally and Craig Marples got them back into the game.
Unfortunately this was short lived as Mark Ablett soon restored Welfare's three-goal lead from the penalty spot.
Duckmanton scored once more through Mark Shepherd.
Hopflower overcame their hosts Renishaw 5-3 with R Crooks, John Newbold and a brace from Andy Vickers accounting for Hopflower's tally.
