The business end to the season is here and the fight to stay out of the bottom four of the Ryman Premier Division looks now to be down to the battle to stay out of twenty-first place between two or maybe three teams being Wingate and Finchley, East Thurrock United and Enfield Town. For the bottom three of Cray Wanderers, Carshalton Athletic and Thamesmead Town to stay up they would probably have to win all but one of their remaining games which would be a miraculous and remarkable turn around in form. Harrow Borough in eighteenth place look to have enough points at this stage to keep out of the fight - two wins and a draw from their last nine games would put them on 51 points which will more than likely be enough for Premier Division football in 2014/15.
As you can see from the below form table since the turn of the year Enfield Town's form has been good with only two defeats in thirteen games. The next few games for Wingate and Finchley, Enfield Town and East Thurrock United could be pivotal as to which team finishes unluckily in the bottom four.
