RYMAN DIVISION ONE (NORTH) ALTERNATIVE TABLE

On the left hand side is the table as it stands at present and on the right hand side is another alternate table that is based on IF all the teams won their games in hand up to the maximum of the 20 games W&F, M&T, Waltham Abbey and Waltham Forest have played. Technically impossible but it illustrates that the title race is now probably down to just three teams in Needham Market, Romford and East Thurrock United. These trio deserve to be in this position as they have lost the lowest amount of games each (2, 1 and 2). It also shows that all is not lost for Enfield Town's season as if (yes...i know a big if??) we win all the games in hand we will be on the cusp of the play off section. In real terms Town need to go on a good unbeaten run, which the squad are capable of to have any chance of reaching the play offs.

Needham Market, Romford and East Thurrock United have still yet to face each other in the league this season. Tuesday night's scheduled game between Romford and East Thurrock United will be an interesting match. Whatever the result in midweek, Enfield Town's next game on Saturday at home to Romford (who have only let in six goals all season to date), looks a very tough encounter indeed.
