TUFFLEY have a five-point lead at the top of the David Wilson Homes Gloucestershire County League following a day when everything went their way.

While second-placed King's Stanley were not in action, every other side in the top six at the start of the day failed to win as Tuffley came from behind to triumph 3-1 at Patchway.

Matt Davis gave Patchway the lead at the break, but three goals in 20 second-half minutes from Richard James, Mark Ford and Marcus Foxwell turned things around.

Third-placed Southmead are now without a win in five games following their 0-0 draw at home to Henbury, who remain tenth.

Ellwood drop to fourth following their 3-1 reverse at Bristol Academy, who took an early lead through Jordan Lawrence.

Darryl Addis equalised on the half-hour, but Truan Williams restored the home side's advantage just before the break and Alex Fox sealed the victory from the penalty spot.

Rockleaze climbed up to fifth courtesy of their 2-1 win at Hanham, James Pilling scoring twice, while Shaun Morris replied for the hosts.

Frampton are now seventh in the table after a remarkable 5-4 victory in their derby clash with bottom-of-the-table Berkeley, who led 4-0 in the first half.

DRG Frenchay gained another important victory, surviving a Kingswood fightback to gain a 3-2 triumph.

James Kenway's brace and another from Mike Connor gave DRG a three-goal lead, before Adam Eldridge and Josh Stokes hit back for the visitors.

Taverners sink to second-from-bottom following their 1-0 home defeat against Thornbury, Danny Thompson scoring the goal on the half-hour mark.

Yate Reserves, meanwhile, surrendered a two-goal lead inside the last 15 minutes at home to Longlevens.

Jack Parker fired in two penalties for the hosts, but Shaun O'Connor and Ryan Dunn salvaged a point for the Gloucester side.
