Parade complete double comeback

What a week for Central Parade, they came from two goals down to equalize against East End Tigers. They also came from a goal down to level with Old Edwardians.

This latest surge in form has seen them get back their spot. Central Parade are back in third place, even though Kamboi Eagles have two games in hand over them.

Old Edwardians continue to impress, but this doesn’t change anything. They are almost back where they started. They find themselves in the relegation zone with Anti- Drugs and RSLAF.

Old Edwardians 1-1 Central Parade

FC Kallon eviscerate Blackpool

So, Saturday’s big derby night didn’t turn out to be a serious contest at all. This is not because both teams were poor, it was because FC Kallon were too good for their opponents.

Two first half goals were enough to condemn Blackpool to their eight loss of the season. FC Kallon found their swagger and for the first time since the start of the second led they have now won two games in a row. It will be fantastic if they could make it three. They face leaders East End Lions.

With just one point separating East End Lions and FC Kallon, you will be sure that this fixture could be a title decider.

Mighty Blackpool have lost their touch and their direction. They can’t wait for this season to end. They have some deep soul searching to do if they want to compete next season.

Bo steal three points in Kenema

So this was the South-Eastern Derby. This game was so big that the Mayor in Bo declared Saturday a public holiday.

The hype around it was massive. It was Kamboi Eagles playing at home. their form and their home support were an advantage. But like we said before, when these two teams meet, everything is up for grabs. Stats don’t matter, forms don’t matter. The only thing that matters is who has more hunger and can take the chance to win.

Bo rode in Kenema, took three points and drove off back to Bo. This is one of the major upsets of the season, two goals in Kenema.

This victory means Kamboi haven’t won their last three games. It also means the Rangers continue their good run. They have now won 4 of their last 5 games. They are now out of the relegation zone by a point. Even though the margin is small but they can at least breath.

Kamboi Eagles have perhaps lost their chance to finish third. They might have a chance, but the window of opportunity is closing.

Kamboi Eagles 0-2 Bo Rangers
