Part three of our County Leagues mid-season round-up shows Leicestershire’s Hinckley and Liverpool’s Vulcan having won all their first 10 fixtures.
Canada Life ISLE OF MAN LEAGUE – Peel in Pole Position
With just about half the fixtures completed, Peel have notched five wins on the trot to lead the table by three points over both Corinthians and Onchan.
JERSEY COMBINATION – Rozel Eye Top Spot
Cherry Godfrey Women’s Division: Sports Club of Jersey sit at the top but have fewer games left than the others, with Rozel Rovers being their main threat, along with Jersey Wanderers.
LANCASHIRE LEAGUE – Latics Lead
Premier Division: Wigan Athletic FC could be tough to catch after eight wins in a row, as they lead with games in hand over Accrington Stanley Reserves, Blackburn Community Sports Club, and Colne.
Championship: Lancaster City hold a slim one-point lead over Penrith AFC Pathway, with Burnley Belvedere able to catch up the latter by winning their three games in hand.
Division 1 North: Kendal Town have won all eight outings so far, sitting top by one point over Vickerstown with a game in hand. Third-placed Abbeytown are better positioned to challenge, having dropped just three points to date.
Division 1 North West: Sir Tom Finney Blue are in pole position, but Penwortham Town Blues can close the six-point gap, and fourth-placed Morecambe Reserves could do the same with their three games in hand.
Division 2 South East: Old Boltonians and Whinney Hill are five points ahead of the rest after eight straight wins each, with the former leading thanks to a better goal difference.
Recreational Division: Blackpool Football Therapy seems to be working well, winning their first three games, while SRDC has also made a positive start.
LEICESTERSHIRE LEAGUE – Hinckley Hit 10 Straight Wins
Division 1: Kirby Muxloe lead by three points over Oakham United, who have a game in hand, while Brookside Athletic, Birstall United, and Thurmaston DPC Vixens all have enough matches to make up to also be considered title contenders.
Division 2: Hinckley have gone 10 games without dropping a point, opening up a nine-point lead over Coalville Town Ravens, who have two games in hand in what appears a two-team tussle for the title.
Quickline LINCOLNSHIRE LEAGUE – Ruston Unbeaten in 10
Premier: Ruston Sports sit top after an unbeaten run of 10 games so far, but both Bottesford Town and Boston Town can apply pressure by winning their matches in hand.
Championship: Sleaford Town Rangers have take maximum points from eight fixtures, to lead the table from Gainsborough Trinity Development, Barton United and Louth FC Development
LIVERPOOL LEAGUE – Vulcan Winning Every Battle
Premier Division: Tranmere Rovers Development have won eight of nine matches to lead from Alder, but FC Northern have a 100% record and enough games in hand to overtake the top side.
Division 1: Burscough hold just a two-point lead over unbeaten St Michaels DH, who have played one game less, while FC Community of Liverpool are the best-placed of the rest to get involved at the top.
Division 2: Vulcan FC UDA’s 10 wins from 10 logically puts them at the top, a hefty 14 points ahead of Clay Brow. But Vauxhall Motors sit in the third promotion spot and also boast a perfect record.
MID-WEST COUNTIES LEAGUE – Redditch Borough Lead Exciting Race
Division 1: The 15-strong table is led by Redditch Borough with 10 wins out of 11, but Evesham United, Ross Juniors, and Dudley Town each have games in hand that could see them move above.
