Bolton Over 35 Veterans' Football League |
|
The list of outstanding league games in the Bolton Over 35s Football League is now down to five. The last Division One match is Old Boltonians against Royal Farnworth, scheduled for next Sunday, 3rd May. The Division Two game between Atherton Town and East Leigh will be this week, but the Match Secretary has not been told if it is Wednesday or Thursday. There are other mid-week games scheduled and it is essential that the dates be confirmed with the Match Secretary as soon as possible so that referees can be appointed and teams prepared. The top three teams in Division One have completed their league game with De La Salle top, AFC Bolton Morris Dancers in second place, followed by Turton Vets who beat Old Boltonians 2-1 on Sunday. Adam Lavin scored the only goal for the home team while Ruben Rajasooriyar and Ryan Harper netted for Turton Vets. De La Salle and AFC Bolton Morris Dancers had agreed to play a “double header” on Sunday, but Morris Dancers conceded because they could not raise a team. As a result, De La Salle gained six points. Turton FC are champions of Division Two, but the runner-up place will be between Little Lever Sports Club Vets, who have one game to play, and Elton Vale Vets who have two games left. Both are currently on 24 points. Turton took their feet off the pedals in their final game and were beaten 5-2 at home by Atherton Town who, with three remaining games, could become runners-up. Colin Entwistle and Craig Hilton goals were not enough for Turton as Mike Day and Chris Hopwood each scored two for Atherton, boosted by one from Tony Lewis. Elton Vale kept their hopes alive with a 6-3 home victory over bottom side Deans Youth & Ladies Vets. Jamie Treanor scored a brace as Stu Telfer, Jon Stephson, Ant Roberts and Darren Jackson added one each for Elton Vale, but a David Ord goal and a John Hudson double kept Deans in the match. |
