The head to heads finished

@Harri_Chas_17	4			@Ethan_Meldrum	0	8		@RankingSW	0

A convincing with to MattB, and a narrow win to Southampton red and white of Amul over the Arsenal red and white of Harri.

Cam and Ethan both failed to pick any games correct in our first dour nil all draw of a Cup tie, but working the 'nearest the pin' on margin system to determine a winner, Ethan gets the nod.

The last stage of the Cup preliminary rounds is two weeks away, with 6 players angling for the last 'round of 16' places.

In the League play, there are now only three games before promotion and relegation,after these results have come through.

The FMI - Harri draw sees the belt retained by H,. and FMI remain in relegation trouble.

The Sarge wins over table topping MichaelN making Div 1's early title race wide open. Dem's win makes for 4 teams only separated by 2 points at the top.

Sean wins to strengthen his division ladder lead, and J_F losing to to Super helps widen the gap. Super also gets a lifeline away from the drop. MattG coughs up the belt after one week.

Smithy also drops the belt to RankSW, while all three at the top of D3 win (Kso, Cody and Cam). Rudi and Tonii both lost, making the next 3 weeks harder to gain promotion.

Lets talk about relegation and promotion...

DIVISION ONE

With three games to go (maximum of 9 points on the table), players from Ethan and above cannot be relegated.

DIVISION TWO

10	@LaurenceRosen	15	2	4	9	35	50	-15	10

Similarly in this division, relegation is not an option for anyone from MattG and above.

Also, it is still possible to secure promotion if you sit in the window from AndyM and above.

No relegation from this division (at least at the mid season break), so it about promotion here... live players for promotion are from Nick upward, though the SD scores some of you have will make it interesting!
