Group A
Berbie Goes Bananas 14-16 The Piemen
Forthy's Tractor Boys 23-14 It's Only Ray Parlour
The Piemen 26-12 Forthy's Tractor Boys
It's Only Ray Parlour 11-15 Berbie Goes Bananas
After leading the group with two games to go, two straight defeats knocked the Romford Pele out of the tournament. 1 point from the final three games wasn't good enough as The Piemen recovered from last to first in the same period and sealed their place in the semi-finals as group winners.
Forthy's Tractor Boys held on despite defeat in the final week by a considerable margin. In the end on both points diffeerence and Head to Head, Berbie Goes Bananas were second best and go home empty handed without even a UEFA Cup to play for.
Group B
Finntastic FC 3-11 Done Like A Kipper 2.0
Bobby Robson's Old Boys 8-21 Snaiks 11
Done Like A Kipper 2.0 17-19 Bobby Robson's Old Boys
Snaiks 11 13-13 Finntastic FC
The Kippers made a fight off it in the final weeks, defeating Finntastic FC whose luck ran out against weaker opponents. Snaiks 11 cruised on to group victory although Dave Mason's Finntastic FC sealed a point and guaranteed themselves second place after a tight 13-13 draw with the group winners in the final game. Bobby Robson's Old Boys woke up about 5 weeks too late and sealed their first victory and a big 19 point haul, almost twice the number of points they had scored in the previous five weeks.
Semi-Final First Leg (November 27th - December 3rd)
The Piemen vs Finntastic FC
Snaiks 11 vs Forthy's Tractor Boys
These should be two exciting games with the first place Tractor Boys taking on the most impressive qualification team in Snaiks 11. The score is already 5-4 to the Tractor Boys after the first game of the week (Villa-Blackburn).
The Piemen (2nd) already have a three point cushion as Finntastic FC's Blackburn keeper Brad Friedel let in 4 goals in mid-week. Can the early season leaders claw their way back?
