THE action was heating up at the start of December in the Vale of Glamorgan Football League.

In Division One the top two clashed, locked even on points going into the game, Barry Belgrade took the spoils with a 2 - 0 victory over Barry Athletic B.

The result drops Athletic B to third as FC Pumas went second, a point behind the leaders, with a 3 - 2 win over bottom side Cardiff Airport.

Cogan Coronation thumped fourth place SP Billy 5 - 1 to go within two points of them.

Dockers won their second nine-goal thriller in a week as they edged out Glenbrook 5 - 4 making it four games unbeaten.

In the Premier Division there were only three fixtures, St Athan missed the chance to close the gap on leaders Vale United to three points in their game in hand as they were held 1 - 1 by fifth place Cowbridge Town.

Penarth Town went third with 5 - 2 over Dinas Powys Athletic and Rhoose made it three league wins on the bounce with a 3 - 1 victory over Island Marine at Maslin Park.

In Division Two, leaders Cadoxton Imps got back to winning ways in style after last week's draw as they routed BVFC a mammoth 11 - 2, BV in somewhat of a free fall in recent weeks, as that makes it five games without a win with Island Marine closing the gap on fourth to three points, with a game in hand, after a 1 - 0 win over bottom placed side FC Pumas B.

Barry Saints stayed seven points behind Imps as they secured a narrow 2 - 1 win over third place Penarth Town B.

Finally, St Athan B made it three wins in a row with a big 6 - 1 thrashing of Rhoose B.

Next week's games of the day look like being in form Rhoose hosting leaders Vale United in the Premier Division, Glenbrook versus Cadoxton Barry in a big game at the bottom of Division One and Penarth B hosting Cadoxton Imps in Division Two.
