Good Friday Football- South Central

By Ian Townsend

Big games for Marlow and Basingstoke as the play off race enters the final stages


We've two matches kicking off at 1PM today, so get yourselves out of the door if you plan to watch them!

The first is at Bedfont Sports, but doesn't feature the side from the end of the runway. Instead, Sports play host to Staines Town, who in turn play host to champions Bracknell Town. This seems to be an away banker, with the Swans without a win since December 21st and the Robins having conceded only eleven goals all season, but only one of these sides has something to play for, so perhaps lightning may strike?

The second 1300 kick off is at Westfield, where Woking Park plays host to fourth place Basingstoke Town. Given the FA announcement this week that Whyteleafe will be classified as a relegated club, Westfield can now relax a little, knowing that they are safe. The visitors certainly can't relax, as they are only a point ahead of sixth place Uxbridge and four points ahead of seventh place Marlow. Looking at the numbers more positively, a win would put them level on points with third place Bedfont Sports in the race for a home play off place.

Finally, at 7.45 PM Binfield host Marlow. This is as good as a must win for the visitors if they want to have a chance of sneaking into the top five at the end of the season, whilst that ship has already sailed for the Moles- but they have had a fine first Isthmian season nonetheless.
