On the U18 Stats page - http://www.afcdiamonds.com/201213-u18-stats - we've added a list of all the games remaining. It looks like the NSYL have a real challenge on their hands fitting in all the games before the inter-league playoff at Cogenhoe on 16th May.

I only act as publisher for the stats - but yes we did lose both of those games.

With Woodford U18 winning their games in hand it now looks like the lads need to win both of their last two games - both of which are tough fixtures. http://www.afcdiamonds.com/201213-u18-stats

With some of the Woodford U18 team having turned out in the Southern League, and with that season now finished, that may also to be their advantage.

seems woodford slipped up last night at Cogenhoe losing 3-2, so I think I am right in saying a win tonight will give us the title.

Indeed, 2 points from our remaining games at Daventry (tonight) and home to Oxford City (Thursday 9th May) will secure the title, and a play-off game against Eastern Division winners Yaxley at Cogenhoe on Thursday 16th May.
