NCEL Weekend Preview

20th April, 2007

The Premier Division title could be decided this weekend as second-placed Sheffield play their final game of the season.

If they do worse at home to Selby Town, who are sixth and still have an outside chance of promotion, than leaders Retford United at next-to-bottom Thackley then the title will be heading to North Nottinghamshire.

Even if things are not sorted this time round, Retford still have two more games to claim the championship and make it a double-winning season for them.

There is also excitement in the chase for promotion with two of the sides hoping to go up coming face-to-face.

Fifth-placed Glapwell go to fourth-placed Carlton Town knowing that anything less than a win would almost certainly put them out of the running.

Meanwhile, Garforth Town travel to Long Eaton United as they try to hold on to third place.

Elsewhere, Arnold Town are at home to Glasshoughton Welfare and Eccleshill United entertain Armthorpe Welfare whilst Mickleover Sports go to Pickering Town and Brodsworth Welfare are at Sutton Town.

In Division One, all eyes will be on the battle for second place now Parkgate have claimed the title comfortably.

Winterton Rangers are currently favourites but a defeat at home to Pontefract Collieries could see South Normanton Athletic overtake them on goal difference going into the last game should they win at home to Dinnington Town.

Meanwhile, at the other end of the table, a point for Teversal at Gedling Town will make them safe from the bottom two.

That would consign Yorkshire Amateur, who are without a game, to sixteenth place ahead of basement outfit Rossington Main.

Champions Parkgate go to fourth-placed Nostell Miners Welfare whilst Borrowash Victoria entertain Tadcaster Albion and Rossington welcome Lincoln Moorlands to Oxford Street.
