The Wateringhole stay top but their defeat to Claymore has put Clive slap bang in the title picture. Kiran’s team went behind when Michael Keane diverted a shot into his own net after 16 minutes but the Society were level before half time when Raul Jimenez converted a spot-kick. A second half low on chances eventually went the way of Clive’s team with a John Stones clean. It’s four defeats in a row for Trusted in all competitions after they went down 3-2 to Mega Bucks. Jack Harrison was Dave’s star as he netted a first WSFFL hat-trick and Beef’s replies from Conors Coady and Gallagher weren’t enough to get back on terms.

The CFJs missed a chance to close in going down 2-1 to YTFIB. Adam Idah opened his account for Julian’s team when he poked under the advancing keeper on 18 minutes. Alain Saint-Maximin doubled the lead four minutes after the break following a textbook mazy run with a fierce low shot. The Cows could only reply with an Aymeric Laporte clean. The Artisans have jumped back up to fifth place courtesy of a 1-0 win over Wheel Madrid. Jarred Bowen evaded his marker to head in from a corner on 34 minutes for the only score. Nil Satis are the third team on 28 points after a 0-0 draw with Markian where nothing happened.

The teams between seventh and tenth in the table all drew 2-2. San Dimas led Stanley Athletic seven minutes before the interval after Jack Butland’s saved penalty but the rest of the action came late on. Aaron’s team were level after stunning, long-distance James Ward-Prowse free-kick and they were ahead three minutes later when Joao Pedro got up highest head his team in front. The celebrations had barely died down when Joachim Anderson steered past his own keeper for the equaliser. It was a similar story between the Muppets and Cheese Makers where Matthew’s team took the lead, Fabinho nodding in at the back post after 44 minutes, Ryan then scored two quick second-half goals (from Kevin De Bruyne and Jacob Ramsey) to take the lead only to concede late, to Adama Traore’s first of the season, and end up level.
