Littlefields continue their rise through the various futsal leagues and are now left with one big challenge, the Premier League. Team manager Callum Blyth has confirmed his team will take on this challenge.

Grange de Saloa will fold this season although the team players will mostly be seen moving to other squads.  For those who are not aware manager ‘Jones’ was an instigator in forming the Grimsby Futsal League, which started from 10 players following internet rules for the game and imported futsal balls when people went on holiday.

Auditorium currently sit in second place, which is a great end to their season after a middle collapse that would have destroyed many other teams.

The Premier League is having its most exciting division since the league started; All Black’s having led up to this week are buckling under the Harvest pressure, 5 games without a win is bizarre form for a team with such undoubted talent.  For the first time during league XII All Blacks are not top! 

Both Harvest teams have played All Black’s twice so the league could in theory come down to a Harvest vs. Harvest II match.  Given the twists in XII I would not bet against a bottom half team or two throwing a spanner in the works.

Harvest manager Mathew Bryant is reaping the benefits of futsal with his Saturday Lakeside team who have won the Saturday Division 2 ‘double’ and beaten the Saturday Division 1 champions in a Challenge Final.  Anyone watching Lakeside (Harvest) at 11v11 cannot help be impressed at the amount of time the ball spends on the floor.

Next  Wednesday’s  game to watch will be Hemswell  vs. Wolf Wanderers; Hemswell win and they could just snatch title, lose and its over!

Kent St Tuesday teams need some toughening up, I got two calls ‘was the games on’, the weather was cold and wet!  At the time I was outdoors coaching a group of 9 year olds in the same cold and rain.  One of the teams failed to play, which may mean they are excluded from league, I apologise to Auditorium who arrived to have no opponents for their opposition bad manners.
