It’s another week at the top for the Wateringhole Society after beating Stanley Athletic 4-3. Kiran’s team took hold of the game in the first 20 minutes - Harvey Barnes threading in the opener and three minutes later the faintest touch from Ezri Konsa diverting in a header to double the lead. A back post header from Konsa made it 3-0 nine minutes after the break before Fred (yes, Fred!) struck with an excellently-placed shot with 13 minutes to go. The Society went 4-1 up eight minutes into injury time when Neil Maupay teed up a volley for himself and that meant that the Stanley cleans from Victor Lindelof and Harry Maguire weren’t enough to grab a point.

Trusted needed cleans to get past the Artisans in a 5-4 thriller and stay second. Bernardo Silva opened the scoring for Beef just after the half hour but Ben was 2-1 up at the break thanks to a measured Mason Mount volley and then Martin Odegaard from 10 yards. Jared Bowen made it 3-1 from the edge of the area on 56 minutes before Silva’s stunner reduced the deficit. Richarlison levelled the game with 11 minutes to go but the returning Patrick Bamford put Ben 4-3 ahead (was it a thigh or a knee?) only for Trusted to take the points with cleans from Trent Alexander-Arnold and Alex Telles.

San Dimas are somehow up to third following a 1-0 win at the Muppets. Tyler Roberts slid in a cross from six yards out for a first goal of the season. Claymore slipped back after going down 1-0 to the CFJs. The only score in this one was a Ben Davies clean. The Cheese Makers win streak goes on after they beat Markian 3-1. Manuel Lanzini opened the scoring from the spot five minutes before the break but Ian was back on terms mid-way through the second half after Davinson Sanchez smashed in. Matthew was back in front on 74 minutes when Cucho Hernandez followed up on his own rebound and Andy Robertson’s clean made sure of the points. 

Nil Satis are also having a good spell and an excellent Demarai Gray strike in injury time gave Paul a 1-0 win over Mega Bucks. Have the Aardvarks turned a corner? Ady’s team saw off YTFIB 4-0. Clean sheets just after the hour were bagged by Japheth Tanganga and Kieran Tierney , Son Heung-Min wriggled free to finish from nine yards and Jamaal Lascelles' clean completed a miserable day for Julian.
