The Aardvarks stay top but the 100% record has gone after a draw with reigning champions Trusted. Che Adams’ deflected shot gave Beef the advantage at the break, Ady levelled through Diogo Jota and then took the lead on 76 minutes with Son Heung-Min’s well-placed header. Jeff Schlupp went off with a clean at the same time to equalise for Trusted and that was the way it stayed. Mega Bucks closed the gap to two points with a 2-0 win over Cheese Makers. A brilliant Michail Antonio scissor-kick was Dave’s first goal on 18 minutes and Wilf Zaha slid in to double the lead 18 minutes into the second period. These two results mean Matthew now props up the table.

Nil Satis are third after edging YTFIB 1-0. Stuart Dallas’ clean the only difference between the two sides. Markian are up to fourth (no, really!) after an excellent 2-1 win at the Wateringhole. Sander Berge got an early penalty for Ian but a stunning half volley from Raul Jimenez levelled the game with ten minutes left. A clean for Luke Shaw gave Markian the points and they’ve now won more games this season than they did all of last.

San Dimas are a point behind in fifth after a 1-1 draw with the Muppets. Phil Foden put Ryan ahead six minutes after half-time but my new signing Karlan Grant got the equaliser with seven minutes left. Stanley haven’t hit full stride yet but are quietly up to sixth after a 2-0 win at the CFJs. James Ward-Prowse opened the scoring on 27 minutes, firing across the keeper into the far corner, and a Ben Chilwell clean assured Aaron of the points.

A Patrick Bamford hat-trick helped the Artisans to a 4-2 win over Wheel Madrid to join those opponents on seven points. An early David Luiz clean gave Paul W the lead but Bamford’s excellent treble put Ben in control with 16 minutes left. Jamie Vardy pulled one back with ten minutes to go but Tom Cairney got Ben’s fourth deep into injury time. Fred picked up his first win of the season, 2-0 over Claymore. The scoring came courtesy of clean sheets from Kurt Zouma and Timothy Castagne but both teams stay in the bottom five.
