EAST THURROCK UNITED ARE RYMAN DIVISION ONE (NORTH) CHAMPIONS

There were scenes of celebration at Oakside today as East Thurrock United's 0-3 win sealed John Coventry's side the title and promotion back up to Premier Division status they lost three seasons ago. The cold end sends congratulations to all at Rookery Hill as they are worthy champions after such a great season losing only four games so far. After being pipped to the title by Aveley and then losing to Concord Rangers in the play offs in 2008/09 and last season losing to Concord again in the play-off semi-final it's great to see a club who have stuck by their manager gain success. Excellent footage of The Rock's victory can be found here. Well worth a watch. Let's hope Steve and the Town team maybe celebrating this time next year!!!!

Enfield Town won 1-0 at home to Ilford thanks to an Adam Wallace second half goal. The cold end wasn't present to film the game. Following Waltham Forest's defeat to Harlow Town it would now take a big turn around for The Foxes to finish bottom. Brentwood Town, Harlow Town and Needham Market now look good for the play-offs with Wingate and Finchley favourites to join them in fifth place. Congratulations to Brentwood Town who drew a crowd of 763 for their charity help the heroes day.

For Enfield Town the focus now shifts to Theobalds Lane and the local bank holiday derby game on Monday afternoon against Cheshunt. A chance for the Town to gain some revenge from the 1-2 defeat at Goldsdown Road earlier in the season.

Elsewhere in local football the Essex Senior League title was clinched by Enfield FC 1893 with their 2-6 victory over Clapton at the Spotted Dog Ground. They could now be promoted to the Ryman Division One (North) for next season meaning two very local derby games could take place.
