UCL DIV 1 ROUND UP WEEK 4

 UCL DIV 1 ROUND UP WEEK 4

After Saturdays games and this weeks mid week fixture the last 100% record of Belper United was ended at the 6th attempt when visitors Kimberley MWFC came out victorious by the odd goal of three. Their prolific striker Luis Rose went into double figures for the season. Kimberley's win followed hot on the heels of their 8 1 demolition of Blackstones on Saturday. The two victories also put Kimberley on top of the table with 16 points from 7 played.

With them on 16 points are St Andrews who responded to their 5 nil defeat at Belper in the battle of the top two  (at the time) on Saturday by winning 3 1 away at Lutterworth on Bank Holiday Monday. 

On Tuesday evening the last unbeaten record also fell when Hinckley lost 3 2 away at Birstall United. Paul Pallett scoring a brace for the hosts who were 3 nil to the good until a late Hinckley fight back came up just short.

Belper dropped to third after their defeat on 15 points but have a game in hand on the top two.

West Bridgford are making a habit of winning at home following up on Fridays 6 nil win hosting Graham Street Prims with a single goal victory over Radford on Tuesday at Regatta Way. That made it 4 wins out of 4 at home together with an away win puts them on 15 points from 7 games to sit in 4th spot.

Aylestone make up the last of the play off places after a surprise home defeat to Saffron Dynamo on Bank Holiday Monday, Dynam's winner came deep into added on time and followed on from another 3 2 away win at struggling Bourne Town on Saturday.

At the bottom Blackstones are the only team looking to get off the mark but have only played 3 games due to covid issues.

Borrowash, Clifton and Bourne are still looking for a victory.

Graham Street got their first victory when defeating neighbours Borrowash Victoria 3 1 in their Bank Holiday clash. There surely can't be two teams closer together geographically other than those who have/or do share the same pitch.

Of the other games Dunkirk picked up a notable 8 1 victory at home to close Neighbours Clifton in the early Bank Holiday game.

Danny Durkin scored 4 times in Harrowbys 6 1 win at home to Bourne Town.

Barrow Town had mixed fortunes losing 3 1 at home to Hucknall Saturday but responding well in travelling to Kirby Muxloe on Tuesday winning 5 1.

Hucknall remained unbeaten over the two games but the Wednesday night game was quite remarkable. The home side found themselves 3 nil down after 20 mins with visitors Gedling scoring 3 times in 6 minutes. Hucknall reduced the deficit to 3 2 by half time before a controversial equaliser in the second half. Great entertainment as I can testify.

Gedling had ended a run of 3 defeats by having an impressive 5 2 home victory over Birstall on Saturday.

All to play for this weekend so enjoy where ever you are going
