Worthing, who were promoted from Division One (South) via the play-offs and 25/1 for the title prior to a ball being kicked, are proudly top of the early Ryman Premier Division table on goal difference to Leiston and Tonbridge Angels who are the only sides left with 100% winning records after three games played. AFC Sudbury and Needham Market are the two other sides left who are without a defeat which perhaps indicates how close the race for the title and the play-offs along with the battle to avoid relegation will be this season.
At the wrong end of the albiet very early table there are eight teams who still await a victory who all go into the midweek games with hopes of picking up a win. There are no teams left who haven't registered a point.

Gareth Heath who scored twice in Leiston's amazing 2-4 victory at Dulwich Hamlet on Tuesday evening is one of three players on three goals - Reis Stanislaus (Worthing) and Martin Tuohy (Canvey Island) are the others. Leiston's victory was one of the stand out wins of the weekend - so much for me writing not many teams will come away from Champion Hill with anything this season.
