Friday 11 Sept:

SWPL Premier: Plymouth Parkway v Buckland Athletic

A bumper crowd expected in Plymouth tonight for a clash between two of the heavyweights of the league. Parkway will leap from 8th to first if they win by a margin of three goals or more, but any win will be enough to send Athletic to the top.

Please post result when known

Buckland starting to hit form!

They now lead the table by one point from Penzance, Cullompton, Elburton and Ivybridge.

Not surprised by this result. Watched Buckland take Torpoint apart 8-1 last Saturday.

Torpoint held their own in the first half (2-1 Buckland) but in the second half Buckland stepped up a gear and clinically punished every single mistake by Torpoint. They were on top in every part of the pitch.

With a score like that can't claim that Torpoint didn't play a part in their own downfall but a lot of teams would have struggled against Buckland's second-half performance. Can't see them being far from top come next May.
