Del Boy Posted March 23, 2018 Report Share Posted March 23, 2018 With the games coming thick and fast from now until 7th May. The Div one west title could go down to the wire. Ludgvan looked certain winners towards the end of 2017 but the miserable weather stopped them firm in their tracks with a number of cancellations. Having slipped up in their last two fixtures its giving the chasing pack a sniff of getting back in the title race. I believe (this is my opinion) that it is going to be a five horse race from now until the end of the season. With a lot of the top teams still to play each other, on some occasions home and away I think there is going to be lots of twists and turns in the tile race. Interested in other peoples thoughts. Looking at the fixture list and tables my five horse race consists of Ludgvan, Millbrook, Liskeard, Mousehole and Porthleven. For a bit of fun I have predicted what points each team will get from their remaining fixtures and come up with the final table that looks like this: (I STRESS THIS IS FOR FUN AND MY OPINION) Table: 1. Ludgvan 70pts 2. Millbrook 69pts 3. Liskeard 68pts 4. Mousehole 67pts 5. Porthleven 63pts Anybody else have a different final table? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leedsunited Posted March 23, 2018 Report Share Posted March 23, 2018 Looking at the table quickly, Liskeard & Millbrook boast very impressive 'Goal Difference' in comparison to the rest which might prove vital. Also with the nature of that league teams probably will not travel 'full strength' across the County/Devon if they are no longer playing for anything, which might also affect the scorelines in some fixtures. Still Ludgvan's to lose I would say, however having seen all of the above play (apart from Mousehole) I would say Liskeard are very impressive on their day. Mousehole after their recent run of results suggest they would compete in the Premier Division along with Liskeard & possibly Ludgvan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of massive games to go so all to play for! Might have to make a few adjustments. I must admit didn’t see some of those results happening. Like you said some big games coming up, everyone will take points off each other. Liskeard will be the happiest after the weekend I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheldon Cooper Posted March 26, 2018 Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 If I was a gambling man, my money would be on Millbrook..... Liskeard and Mousehole will be right in it until the end too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were a good side and also presented a nice pasty in the clubhouse - made the trip from Falmouth worthwhile ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid their application fee to apply for promotion, would more than likely be less traveling miles in the Premier than Division One West & they'd be back playing proper football, why would they Not want it now! Great club, lets hope they return back to where they belong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin McHugh Posted March 28, 2018 Report Share Posted March 28, 2018 We need to play better than we did last night if we are to continue pushing!! Its a tough league to get out of and if we get promotion its going to be a tough fight. Sticker romped the league last year and have only won 5 games in their promotion year so far.....it is a big step!!! MQx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldFan Posted March 29, 2018 Report Share Posted March 29, 2018 There’s 7/8 really really good teams in the league and very competitive. With teams having to play so many games in such a short amount of time, I think the title is going to the side who can handle the fixture backlog the best. Also, teams will need a bit of luck with injuries. My gut feeling has the league finishing like this & i’m talking maybe just a few points between the top 7/8! It’s definitely the league to catch for the run in.

MQx Gap between West & Premier is significant, Sticker have proved that last season after walking the West league & now with the same squad virtually now three places off the bottom of the Premier.
