"A jaundiced club secretary looks forward to the weekend's fixtures" - Ed,
So already we've reached the mid season point... or thereabouts... and this weekend represents a potential watershed for two teams. Many clubs will find themselves ever so slightly stronger as the season enters its second half with returning University players up for selection and talented colts free of school commitments. With luck, holidays won't play a part. So this weekend could very well see a change in fortunes for many clubs and it's important to capitalise now. The 1s are at home to Sanderstead. This match sees the two unbeaten teams in Fullers Division One 1st xi clash and though there are many challenges ahead, the bragging rights for the season are on offer right here, right now. The teams are currently separated by the difference between the points gained for a tie (Sanderstead) and an abandonement (The Wick). With both teams more than two wins clear of the chasing pack, another win here would leave one club unbeaten and needing to score only 120 points from a possible 160 to secure promotion. The 2s travel to group leaders Carshalton and after results didn't go quite their way last week, need a positive result to make sure that they stay in touch with what is a very tight promotion battle. With strong availability this week and some weather around, this could be a crucial weekend. The 3xi are sitting pretty at the top of their table. With a sizeable gap opening up between them and the fourth placed team, they travel to bottom half club Farnham. A win would give them breathing space and allow them to approach a Uni and Colts rich second half of the season with some confidence. Wickman is drooling Homer Simpson like at the prospect...
