Results
Brian O’Neil
The top of the table clash between Buxton and Jelly Belly ended all square at 6-6. You have to feel sorry for Sausage and Redbeard who both scored 6 but still suffered defeats !
Ralph Coates
In The Ralph Coates, Tiger76 suffered the same fate as Sausage and The Admiral, going down 7-6 to Rubstuds. Bobinho got back to winning ways and retains his top spot. RedCloud203 holds onto his coat tails, by goal difference only. Old Claret’s poor run of form continues, a third straight defeat for him.

Wilks, I just don't know what to say. All I can think of is sorry for choosing our game to record my best ever score to date, especially given my more recent form.

We are coming close to the end of the Season. What is the way forward?
It is suggested that the top 8 from each League play-off and play-off until we have the Top Two.
Any other suggestions??

how about spot selling his winalot vouchers, and paying for all teams to go on a road trip to paris in the sixteenth century, a bit like a stag do, but without the lager. I have a second hand time machine, just can't find the keys at the minute.

I'll try, but there's a risk we'll land on the pitch and alter history.
