Of the rest, Norwich United Res won 4-1 at Horning, Wells Res scored the only goal of the game seeing off North Walsham Old Boys, Hickling lost out 5-2 aet, after drawing 2-2 at normal time to the Albion, Hoveton napped Corpusty, as did East Harling over Runton at Woodhill.
Aldborough lost at home by the odd goal of three against Long Stratton Res, with Sheringham Res scoring seven against Briston, who replied twice.
