Newport Astroturf™ League

So here we are, only 2 league games left and we are down to the business end of the season.

Where the premier league will be heading took a turn last week as leaders St Johns were ony able to draw with already relegated Arrows, Now on level points with AFC they have an advantage of +10 goal difference but this week they play 3rd placed Royal Oak on Monday already knowing how AFC would have got on against 4th placed Atlanteans, whilst Arrows are already down, Hermans have found form at the right time of the season, they are still 5pts from safety but this week they Lech who are 5 pts away from them, anything other than a win and Hermans are a Div 1 team next season.

Div 1 has often been a close run divison and this season is no exception, current leaders Exiles will secure promotion if they beat Saints on Monday but the chasing pack will also get smaller if results go as planned, 2nd placed Hangover play 3rd placed CBC in a 6pointer but Mag 7 are in form and not only can they capitolise on the other game but they will relegate Allstars along with Robins if they win on Sunday.

Dreamteam and Jackpot have already secured promotion from Div 2 with Dreamteam taking the title but the real battle is at the bottom, Vikings, Aardvark and Cricketers are all battling for the 2 places and this week they all face top teams to see if the battle goes another week, anything other than a win for Vikings and they are down.

The Strollers have lead Div 3 from week 2 and some say they celebrated the title too early but after last weeks defeat to 2nd placed Eagles the title race is back on, Strollers lead by 1pt but havent won in the last 3 games and will not be looking forward to playing Patent Office who havent lost in 3 games, Eagles play Real Athletico which wont be easy but they are the inform team so who knows.
