We are one week away from the end of this season in Abingdon as our Wednesday night 5 a side leagues head towards the season finale.
The premier league is going right to the wire as two sides both sit at the top on 16 points. Exeter Gently are in prime position to take the title with a superior goal difference and they won again this week with a 7 - 2 victory over Chamakh. They play 3rd placed Silly Buggers in the final game. Socios will be hoping Silly Buggers do them a favour, if they do and Socios can grab the points against Saka Potatoes they will be champions themselves. It was a challenging night for Socios this week, just edging past The Mighty Ducks 5 - 4 while Silly Buggers won 10 - 4 against Saka Potatoes. So much to play for next week in this division.
The title is decided in Division One with Murder On Zidanes Floor way out in front and they will head into the prem next season full of confidence winning 10 - 1 against 3rd placed Pathletico this week. Pathletico can still finish in the top two with a win next week against Goals Allowed, especially as 2nd placed Nice Guys have to play the champions. It will be interesting to see who gains that 2nd spot. Nice Guys went down 5 - 4 to Ale Stars this week while Goals Allowed were undone by FCUOB and will play division two football next season.
The Division Two looks like it's heading to Wenby Athletic, it would take a couple of freak results next week to prevent it, Wenby had a great night this week racking up a 20 - 3 win over Maragonna while 2nd placed Basically Barca also won, 9 - 7 against Slough Posse. Unremarkables had a 5 - 0 points win.
So thats it for week 9 of the season, an exciting week awaits us with the conclusion of this season and then it's straight on into the new campaign the following week.
Thanks to all the officials, have a great week everyone.
