18-Feb, Round Seven – big wins for leaders and Chapel A

Posted on February 17, 2014February 24, 2014 by admin

After the Nationals, twelve teams were back on the PSL trail, and it was the existing group leaders who profited the most on the night.

In group A Leaders Duffield avenged their first half defeat against Coolhurst, winning 4-1 to extend their lead at the top. Birmingham kept up their challenge for a playoff place with a 3-2 home win over struggling Pontefract, but the big winners on the night were Chapel Allerton, who inflicted a rare home defeat on Nottingham – five-nil at that – to move into second place, although it’s still very close with five teams still capable of making the semis.

Joint group B leaders Surrey and Exeter both recorded away wins to keep them in prime position to take the semi-final spots, Exeter earning one more point to give them sole ownership of top place. Meanwhile while St George’s overtook Chichester for third place with a solid home win over bottom-placed Winchester to keep their playoff hopes alive.
