ROGER James created history for North Leigh as he scored twice in a milestone 2-0 win at Hendon.

The winger found the net either side of half-time to give the Millers their first victory – and points – in Pitching In Southern League Premier South.

It saw North Leigh climb off the foot of the table after losing their first three matches.

Elsewhere, Thame United exited the Emirates FA Cup with a 3-1 preliminary round defeat at Marlow, David Pearce scoring in a game that was broadcast live on the BBC Sport website.

Jamar Smith, Taylor Bedwell, Connor Barrett and James Glover fired Didcot Town into the first qualifying round with a 4-0 home win over Cadbury Heath.

Easington Sports will go to Roman Glass St George for a replay after a 0-0 draw.

Kidlington lost 3-0 at home to Binfield, while Ardley United went down 1-0 at Aylesbury United.
