Ennis Square 1 M'brough PO 3: Middlesbrough Post Office ended Ennis Square's unbeaten start to the season to draw level at the top of the table.
Playing with the wind in the first half, Post Office took a twenty fifth minute lead when David Mills made no mistake from the penalty spot.
Despite going close, Post Office could not add to their lead before the break and when Jonathan Kirk equalised within thirty seconds of the restart, they looked as if they have problems defending against the wind.
Just past the hour mark however, Stephen Dalton set up John Simon to restore the Posties advantage and they made sure of the points when Stewart Rose capitalised on a goalkeeping error.
