The County Leagues...
Gloucestershire League
Barring a miracle result in their final game, Dursley Town will be assured of their second runners-
up medals this season following Tuffley Rovers' 3-1 defeat by Cirencester Town in Division Two.
The result means that Ciren are likely to finish the season in fourth place, one place below Tuffley.
The Division Three title race has taken another twist after leaders Whitchurch & Bristol
were beaten in their final game of the season, 2-0 by Southmead Community Sport. This means
that Bradley Stoke will pip Whitchurch & Bristol to the title if they win their own final game this
week - which is also away to Southmead. Downend Flyers Res are in line to finish third after
winning 2-1 against Winchcombe Town, whose consolation came from Anna Howes. Sian Towler
scored four times and Amy Lewis added the other as Kingswood Women ran out 5-1 winners away
to Stoke Lane Athletic, which keeps them in with a chance of a top four place.
Greater London League
Ornella Mbula scored the only goal of the game as Islington Borough defeated Division One North
title winners elect Actonians Ladies Res 1-0 in the Anniversary Trophy. Headstone Manor
meanwhile defeated Comets 2-0 in the all-Premier match, courtesy of a goal apiece from Sinead
Walsh and Rosie Watts. Regents Park Rangers won 5-2 against South London Women with
Natalia Debek, Emma Johnson, Sophie Lingley and Georgiana Wagemann all on target, along with
an own goal. Kasey Clifford and Eleonora Cottrell netted a goal apiece as Brentford B beat
Camden Town Blues 2-0.
Luton Town Res picked up their biggest victory of the season in Division One North,
winning 10-1 against New London Lionesses Development. Leyah Maddix and Jess McKay
each bagged hat-tricks, Elizabeth Sanders weighed in with a brace and Hannah Payne was also on
target, along with an own goal.
The Division One South title race is set to go all the way to the last game after leaders
Richmond & Kew were held to a 1-1 draw by Tooting Bec. Ellie Crabb was on target for
Richmond & Kew - who would win the title with a victory in their last game - and Tooting scored
through Bryony Bancroft. Elizabeth Mulvaney netted the only goal of the game for second placed
UCL Academicals in their 1-0 win away to Sporting Duet. Kathryn Aylward and Beth McIntosh
accounted for the goals as Balham Panthers won 2-0 at Ashford Town (Middlesex) Res.
