Real Bedford could officially be crowned champions of the Spartan South Midlands League Premier Division tonight should they win their game against London Lions and MK Irish drop points at Cockfosters. Either way a victory will all but win Real the title as it would put them on 90 points with a +91 goal difference. 

Tonight's game at Chalk Lane is equally important for Cockfosters as they need to win to keep up their outside chance of a play-off place. They have an extremely busy two weeks with five league games to play and the Premier Division Cup Final. Just 24 hours after their final with Real Bedford next Wednesday they travel to Shefford Town and Campton for a league game!

AFC WELWYN BEING PUSHED ALL THE WAY BY BOVINGDON IN THE SPARTAN SOUTH MIDLANDS LEAGUE DIVISION TWO TITLE RACE

As you can see from the current table AFC Welwyn are top of the table but Bovingdon are the team pushing them and could only be two points below should they win their game in hand. 

Codicote, Newport Pagnell Town Development, Old Bradwell United, Aston Clinton and New Bradwell St Peter could still finish top of the table but would have to rely on The Romans and Bovingdon's losing lots of games in the final month of the season.

Chatham Town have secured their play-off spot in The Pitching In Isthmian Premier Division with Enfield Town, Wingate & Finchley, Horsham, Billericay Town and Hastings United now fight it our for the final three spots available. 

The Towners need a point in their final three games to secure their spot as do Wingate and Finchley in their final two games - this is, of course, depending on the results of the other teams. 

Should Horsham win at Lewes on Tuesday evening it'll end Hastings United chances. Billericay Town need to win their final two games and rely on the other teams involved dropping points.

Congratulations to Hornchurch who clinched the league title at the weekend with a 2-1 home win over Chatham Town in front of 1,318 people at Bridge Avenue. The race for the play-offs goes right down to Potters Bar Town in 14th place. 

Bognor Regis Town are in the 'mathematically possible' section as they can only equal 5th placed Billericay Town's 64 points total but have a goal difference of +3 compared to The Blue's total of +22. 

Whitehawk, Lewes, Dulwich Hamlet and Hashtag United can also only get to fifth place but have to rely on other teams results so probably won't make the final top five of the season. 

The interesting team is Potters Bar Town who have a very busy few weeks ahead of them. They play 'home games' against Horsham and Margate on Tuesday and Thursday which are being played at Haringey Borough's Coles Park Stadium. They then travel to Enfield Town for a local derby on Saturday before playing home games against Haringey Borough (Tues), Hornchurch (Sat) and Hastings United (Tues) before ending the season at Whitehawk on Saturday 27th April.  If they do finish in the top five they will most certainly deserve it!! 

The Scholar's two games this week look very exciting with The Scholars and Horsham needed three points for their play-off chances and Margate needed three points to give themselves an outside chance of staying up.

BELARUSIAN FOOTBALL WEEKEND REVIEW - NAFTAN GAIN A CREDITABLE POINT AT THE CHAMPIONS

Gomel scoring three and Dynamo Brest scoring four away from home at BATE Borisov and Shakhtyor Soligorsk this weekend is a clear indication that the fifteen time title winners and 2020 & 2021 league champions are certainly no longer the dominant force in in Belrarusian football there were. For those not in the know Shakhtyor also finished top in 2022 but were stripped of the title due to the match fixing scandal. 

MATCH ACTION FROM SHAKHTYOR'S GAME WITH DYNAMO BREST

Gomel took an early lead via 18 year old Kazakhstani striker Abinur Nurymbet who netted his first goal for the club following his recent move from Energetik-BGU. He headed home from a corner in the third minute. Timur Pukhov scored two more for the visitors who is another new player in the Gomel squad for this season after his move from Naftan Novopolotsk. His first was a very well struck free kick in the 27th minute. Andrey Panyukov, another former Naftan player, scored from the spot for BATE from the penalty spot to get tham back in the game but Pukhov finished the scoring with a brilliant strike from the edge of the box to help his side to a very memorable victory. 

Dynamo Brest were 0-3 up after just twenty minutes with German Barkovskiy's skilful back heel goal the pick of the bunch. Kenyan striker Josephat Lopago finished the scoring when a defensive mix up saw him able to finish easily from just inside the box. 

It was a fantastic weekend for DNEPR Mogilev who got their first away win at the top level of Belarusian football since 1st April 2018 they won 1-2 at Gorodeya. Anton Lukashov, who was only 13 years old in April 2018, got the only goal of the game in their 0-1 win at Slutsk. 

Smorgon weren't expected to win at FC Minsk after losing their first two games by an aggregate score of 1-9 but they caused a real upset winning 2-3 with former Belshina Bobruisk Kirill Leonovich scoring two goals.  

Slavia Mozyr and Neman Grodno are the only teams left with 100% winning records. Pavel Chikida continued his excellent early season form scoring a penalty and Kirill Kirilenko netting a goal in the second half in a 2-1 win over Islcoh whose goal was a late one in the 91st minute from Aleksandr Makas. 

The game of the day was last season's runner's up with last season's 3rd place as Neman Grodno hosted Torpedo Belaz Zhodino. It was Pavel Savitskiy's famous left foot which won the game when he scored a 14th minute penalty in front of 5,800 people.  The award of the penalty (take a look at the highlights!) was a little controversial as you'll see! 

Naftan Novopolotsk who played very well in their first two games against Neman Grodno and BATE Borisov showed they have a very impressive team for this season as they raced into a 0-2 lead at Champion's Dynamo Minsk with 20 year old Ignat Pranovich who had two other very good chances to score. 

Raymond Adeola scored his third goal of the season and a very important one when he made it 1-2 just before half time via a close range header. Pavel Meleshin made it 2-2 on 65 minutes. It wasn't a case of the visitor's hanging on for a point as Albert Rybak's team had chances to win with Fedor Lapoukhov in the home goal making some good saves.

MATCH ACTION FROM OSTOVETS v ENERGETIK-BGU 

(photos - @fc_ostrovets)

It was the start of the First League this weekend with the big winners being ML Vitebsk who won 0-3 at Lokomotiv Gomel. The two demoted sides in Belshina and Energetik-BGU had mixed fortunes. The Students lost 1-0 at Ostrovets whose goal was scored by former FC Minsk, ML Vitebsk and Lida midfielder Kirill Parmonov on his debut. 

Belshina won 0-2 at Slonim through goals from debutant's Vadim Balbukh and Yuri Gavrilov. 

The Belarusian U17 side who have been placed in the second tier for this season left it late to win their first game when Stanislav Kazmerchuk (in the 84th minute) and Nikita Lyukevich at 90+3 minutes scored to win 2-1 over Bumprom Gomel. Lyukevich's chased down the away keeper and blocked his clearance to run clear and pass the ball into the net to win the three points.

It looks as though the fight to avoid relegation from non-league's top table will go down to the final day of the season. Oxford City are already relegated but then it's down to any three teams from Maidenhead United downwards as surely AFC Fylde points total of 52 is enough to keep them in the division. 

Here we take a look at the teams involved and assess their chances of beating the drop.

DORKING WANDERERS 

The Wanderers host Altrincham this Saturday before a HUGE midweek game at Wealdstone next Thursday and they then end their season with a tough away trip to Rochdale followed by a home game against Hartlepool United.

They are currently four points from safety with a -28 goal difference which is the worst in the division aside from Oxford City. It's looking a tough challenge for The Wanderers to stay up and they will need to win at least two of their remaining three games to give themselves a fighting chance- even that could not be good enough to see them stay up. They have only one victory in their last ten games and have conceded sixteen goals in their last six. 

BOREHAM WOOD 

The news has been announced today that Manager Luke Garrard will be leaving at the end of the season. He took over as boss in October 2015 following the departure of Ian Allinson who had taken the Hertfordshire side to The National League for the first time in their history with a National South play-off victory over Whitehawk at the end of the 14/15 season. 

Garrard has taken The Wood to the National League play-offs three times going to close to promotion the football league in the 17/18 season losing the final to Tranmere Rovers at Wembley Stadium. Then there was the famous FA Cup run of 21/22 where victories over Barnet, Eastleigh, St Albans City, AFC Wimbledon, AFC Bournemouth got them to the Fifth Round where they played Everton at Goodison Park. 

It's been a disastrous 23/24 campaign for the club with seventy-three goals conceded and just ten wins from their forty-two games played. Like The Wanderers they have a poor goal difference of -21 and are currently three points from safety - this could be key I think as many fans see Goal Difference counted as a point so 'technically' Boreham Wood are 'four' points and Dorking Wanderers are 'five' with just twelve points to play for?  

Six defeats in a row and just one win in their last ten games has seen The Wood drop into the relegation zone. 

This Saturday is a MASSIVE Hertfordshire/Middlesex derby at Wealdstone visit Meadow Park which a a real relegation six pointer! Just eleven miles sperate the two grounds and it's only seven miles from Borehamwood to Wealdstone so they will be plenty of visiting fans for this one. 

They then travel to Rochdale and Aldershot Town before ending the season at home to Ebbsfleet United. 

KIDDERMINSTER HARRIERS 

Harriers looked relegation certainties until the arrival of former Hull City boss Phil Brown in early January who replaced outgoing boss Russell Penn who is now in charge of Southern Premier League Central side Halesowen Town. Promoted via the National North play-offs in 2023 they got only four wins from twenty-eight games which has improved to a very impressive seven from fifteen games under Brown. 

	P	W	D	L	GF-GA	GD	PTS	PPG
PENN	28	4	8	16	20-37	-17	20	0.71
BROWN	15	7	5	3	19-15	+4	26	1.74

Their amazing 1-3 win over champion's Chesterfield on Monday was their first win in seven games (four have been draws) and they will carry lots of confidence from this into their forthcoming home games against FC Halifax Town (who also need a win in their race for the play-offs) and Eastleigh. They end their season at Barnet who may have one eye on their play-off campaign as they are likely to finish as runner's up in the division. 

WEALDSTONE 

The Stones lost their much loved Manager Stuart Maynard in January as he moved into the football league with League Two side Notts County. He had been in charge of the club since February 2021 after Dean Brennan left - He was assistant to the now Barnet boss since May 2019. 

Under Maynard the Middlesex side established themselves amongst the full time National League clubs with bigger resources improving their finishing position each year from 19th to 16th to 13th. 

David Noble was quickly appointed joining from National South side St Albans City and won his first game in charge 2-0 against FC Halifax Town - since then they have just two wins in fourteen games. Their last two games have been 0-1 defeats at already relegated Oxford City and at home to play-off hopeful's Solihull Moors who scored the winning goal in the 96th minute! 

	P	W	D	L	GF-GA	GD	PTS	PPG
MAYNARD	25	9	6	10	34-26	+8	33	1.32
NOBLE	15	3	5	7	17-25	-8	14	0.93

As mentioned they have a huge game at Boreham Wood this weekend followed by four home games in week against Southend United (Tues), Dorking Wanderers (Thurs), Chesterfield (Sat) and Eastleigh (Tues) and then end their season with a tricky trip to Oldham Athletic who could still have a chance of a play-off place on the day. 

EBBSFLEET UNITED 

The Fleet parted company with manager Dennis Kutrieb in January who has been replaced by Danny Searle. Under the former Aldershot Town and Braintree Town boss results have improved from a 25.81% win rate to a 50% win rate but they are not safe yet! 

	P	W	D	L	GF-GA	GD	PTS	PPG
KUTRIEB	31	8	6	17	38-56	-18	30	0.97
SEARLE	10	5	4	1	19-12	+7	19	1.90

The Kent side host AFC Fylde this weekend before a midweek trip to Solihull Moors next Tuesday. The play Altrincham in their final home game followed by trips to FC Halifax Town and Boreham Wood.

WOKING 

It's been a difficult season for The Cards who finished in fourth place last season which was their highest position since they finished in third place in the 97/98 campaign. Darren Sarll left his job as Manager in November and has been replaced by Michael Doyle in first full time job as Manager - before he was player/assistant coach at Forest Green Rovers and Professional Development Phase coach in the Portsmouth FC academy. 

Four wins and three draws in their last ten games has lifted them to 49 points but they are still in danger of the drop.

They have home games against Dagenham & Redbridge and AFC Fylde as well as a trip to York City in their final games. 

YORK CITY 

The Minstermen are another side to have a positive new manager bounce under Adam Hinshelwood who recently joined from National South side Worthing. The first four games under new management were three defeats including a 1-6 defeat at Altrincham but since they have won against Aldershot Tow, Bromley and Chesterfield along with an important point won on the road at FC Halifax Town last night. They have two home games against Eastleigh and Woking followed by a final day away trip to Solihull Moors. 

	P	W	D	L	GF-GA	GD	PTS	PPG
KUTRIEB	35	9	15	12	43-53	-10	39	1.11
HINSHELWOOD	8	3	2	3	10-14	-4	11	1.38

I'm sure they'll be a few twists and turns and lots of drama in the forthcoming weeks - It could go down to the final day with only Oxford City down and three relegation places to be decided.
