The top four of the Evo-Stik Southern League Premier South Divison are currently separated by just three points so the race of the title is set to be one of the most exciting in non-league football this season. The surprise team are no doubt the Metropolitan Police FC who last season finished tenth in the Bostik Premier and were moved into the new division along with Hendon, Harrow Borough and Staines Town. Long serving Manager Jim Cooper left the club as he couldn't commit to the longer distance travelling and he was replaced by Gavin McPherson who had been assistant to Cooper as well as a player at the club.
With all the upheaval at the club last summer I'm sure nobody thought that, with eight games to play, they would be in with a chance of the league title in their new division.
Taunton Town were Division One West champions last season so are potentially looking at two promotions in as many seasons although two drawn games and two defeats in their last four games has put a dent in their title aspirations. Salisbury were also promoted from the same division as runner's up so are looking to move up to Step Two of the non-league ladder which will be one step below of where Salisbury City played in 2014 - Salisbury FC were formed after City were dissolved in 2014.
Weymouth finished fifth in the Southern League Premier Division last season but lost in the play-off semi-final to Kings Lynn Town.
Below is a table showing the records of the games played between the current top four. Met Police FC still have to travel to Weymouth (date to be arranged) and Taunton Town (Saturday 6th April) the results of which could be pivotal to which team finishes top of the table at the end of the season.
In the last six league games played Weymouth have 16 points, Met Police 13, Salisbury 10 and Taunton Town 8.
