Nothing to report from the relegation battle in Division A this week and all the main issues have already been decided in Divisions B and C. In Division D Conteshard (Roman) secured his eighth consecutive victory to lead also unbeaten snooky51 (Sassanid) by 5 points. They still have to play each other in what will be a decisive match provided snooky51 beats relegation threatened Bluefin (Indian) in his other remaining game. In Division E Blagrot's (Ancient British) heroic effort to catch TomoeGozen (Sassanid) came to an end with a defeat to Darkwater247 (Bosporan), who has now moved into second place but cannot catch the leader, who is promoted. The remaining match between Blagrot and carpenkm (Roman) will decide who finishes in second place. In Division F bottom-placed McHarg (Romano-British) must win 1 of his last 2 matches to avoid the wooden spoon.
