WITH all clubs taking a two week break for Christmas, it is Hook who will go into the New Year heading the Basingstoke and District Division One table.

They are six clear points following their 1-0 win against Twenty Ten, but it was far from easy against Alan Spacagan’s youngsters, in fact on chances the opposition had more, hitting the post and having two cleared off the line.

Hook's winner came after 23 minutes, after Aaron King was brought down on the edge of the area, and curled in the free-kick.

Tadley Calleva A retained second spot after beating Overton United A at Berrydown 4-1.

All four goal came from the in form Kyle Theodore, taking his tally to 25 already his season.

Two goals were assisted by Stephen Burgess and Dan Walkley cleared a certain Overton goal after the line as they failed to add to Jessy Todd's early strike.

Basingstoke Labour Club won at Hampshire Irons 4-1, as Paul Gadsten scored two of the four.

Gadsten gave them the lead after 21 minutes, before Ben Woods equalised early in the second half.

Gadsten restored the lead, against the run of play and further goals from Matt Kelly and Cameron George completed the win.
