Hungerford Town 0-1 Whitehawk -
‘Crusaders’ fall to 85’ winner; Poole’s win at Concord puts them only 2 points behind – both sides have two games left. Concord are 3 points above Hungerford and the two meet on Tue night – whilst Poole host Whitehawk.
- The Final round of games next Sat sees Hungerford trek back to Essex to take on East Thurrock; while Poole play host to Oxford City. Concord, should they not get anything out of the Tue night game will be in some bother should Poole manage a win, as they have to trek to title chasing Havant who can pip Dartford to the title – especially if they (H&W) have beaten East Thurrock by a couple of goals on Wed night.
- Dartford ought to be comfortable winners in their last game as they welcome relegated Bognor.Oxford City 4-0 Bognor Regis Town

Hayes & Yeading United - 'The Rams' fluffed their lines rather here and lost top spot - though HandY are amongst the PO certainties. This defeat actually might yet let Hartley into one of the two automatic spots - though Beaconsfield do have three games left to AFC R&D's & HW's 2.Bedford Town 0-2 AFC Dunstable

Bracknell Town Brimscombe & Thrupp 4-4
Flackwell Heath Burnham 1-0 Oxford City Nomads –
rare win for Blues but I suspect their fate is sealed as they have only 2 games left and are three points adrift of Woodley – and cannot reach any of the sides above that.Longlevens 2-1
Binfield Lydney Town 1-3 Brackley Town Saints
Thatcham Town 4-1 Tuffley Rovers
att 213 – Kingfishers have 1 league game left; H v Brackley Saints next Sat – win that and Bracknell would have needed to win all three of their remaining fixtures and make up a difference of (currently) 16 goals. 'Robins' start their effort at Rivermoor (sorry Scours Lane) vs Woodley on Tue evening - then Lydney on Thursday - finishing at home to Tuffley on Saturday.Woodley United 0-1

Wokingham & Emmbrook @ Wokingham Penn & Tylers Green 1-4
Sandhurst Town –
sad end to the season for P&TG who end up 3rd– though Fizzers have improved vastly this term - finished 4th ahead of also improving Holyport and Sumas.Thame Rangers 2-3 Bicester Town –
leaders Bicester have done all they can to win the title – now have to sit back and hope Virginia Water (2 games left 2 points behind) don’t win either of their remaining games. VW could lift the title on Thursday evening at Stag Meadow when they ‘host’ strugglers Aldermaston. They then have another chance at home to Thame Rgrs on Sat – but doubt they’ll need it. HL1W
Cheltenham Saracens 0-2
LetcombeWoodstock Town 4-0 Tytherington Rocks –
still no points for poor ‘Rocks’ – having seen Woodstack perform well last week at 2nd placed Shrivenham, I half-expected as much.
- they (Rocks) travel to 2nd bottom New College Swindon (on the outside pitch at Supermarine) on Thursday night - will prove to be a draw for us 'Anoraks' of the more ghoulish persuasion WESSP
Baffins Milton Rovers 4-2 Blackfield & Langley
Petersfield Town 2-0 Shaftesbury
Sholing 2-0
Andover Town- Hi jinx at the top this w/e ; with both contenders suffering rare defeats – Blackfield need to win 2 from 3 to pip Andover, who have completed their fixtures. Blackfield could conceivably pinch the title by Wednesday as they play Fareham tomorrow night and host Hamworthy on Wed.
- At the bottom already relegated Petersfield notched a rare winWESS1
Andover New Street 0-4 AFC Stoneham
- ANS probably over-celebrated promotion last week, allowing Christchurch to get back past them again and lead by 2 points.
- Both sides have their final fixtures scheduled for this Tue and are against lower table sides: – ANS host Whitchurch whilst Christchurch travel to Hythe & Dibden; they would probably be worthy winners as they have only lost 3 league games – New Street have lost 9 but not yet drawn a game!
- It must be top three up at least, as Tadley can still pinch 2nd spot if they win at Fawley on Tue and ANS fail to get a maximum against the Jam Boys.Christchurch {SIX} 6-0 Downton
Tadley Calleva 2-0 Laverstock & Ford

Whitchurch United 2-0 Totton & Eling
- Division One’s fixtures more or less wrap up this midweek – which is commendable considering how much disruption the weather would have caused in this part of the world. Shows the blazers at the FA that an 18 team STEP06 is feasible if properly run – and the Wessex have just as many County/league and sub-divisional County Cups to play for too - as well as dealing with the vagaries of those 'overseas' clubs they have in their two divisions. - Headed way up north (well West Mids) for a National North relegation battle.
AFC Telford Utd 3-2 Gainsborough Trinity – hosts fought back from 2 down to seal their own STEP02 survival and condemn their visitors back to STEP03 along with Tamworth and N.Ferriby.
- The ‘Bucks’ play at 'New Bucks Head' – a new build on the site of their previous Stadium; completed in 2003-ish shortly before the old (original) Telford went bust about a year later.
- Decent enough Stadium but probably built for loftier ambition – a bit like Nene Park which did at least see league football before it all went to pot.
