9/6/2017

Totton & Eling’s top-of-the-table derby clash with Paultons at Southern Gardens (1pm) dominates tomorrow’s British Gas Southern League Division 2 programme.
The local pair lie first and second, respectively, in the log, with 84-point Totton defending a four-match winning start.
Paultons, benefitting from the middle-order presence of Australian all-rounder import James Bills from the Sydney Grade club Sutherland, have lost once and are 12 points behind.
Bills has scored 244 runs and taken seven wickets in Paultons’ four matches.
Totton & Eling: Mbofana, J Taylor, E Taylor, L Taylor, Perrin, Geyle, Sharma, Collier, Darney, Bracey, George
Third placed Sparsholt head east for an important SPL2 visit to Hambldon, and then Liphook & Ripsley in the Willams Village Cup county final at Ripsley Park on Sunday.
Skipper Jeremy Frith, pictured, is in particular good form for Sparsholt, having made an unbeaten 75 at Trojans and taken 5-43 in last week’s dramatic last-over win against OTs & Romsey.
Sparsholt: Frith, Haworth, Skeoch, Mitchell, Kennett, Foster, Banks, Tognarelli, Doubell, Weir, Williams.
Langley Manor will look to build on their first win against St Cross Symondians II last week when bottom side South Wilts II visit Knellers Lane.
St Cross, led by Harry Foyle, look to bounce back from their Langley Manor upset.
St Cross Symondians II: H Foyle, Hawkins, Laney, Youngs, Berryman, Orchard, Howarth, Ayres, Whitman, Middleton, Trussler.
Trojans, currently in the bottom two, host Hartley Wintney at Stoneham Lane.
Unbeaten on their travels, Hartley Wintney moved up to fourth in the table by beating Hambledon last week and another win would certainly put them into the promotion shake-up, as the season moves into its sixth week. 
Hartley skipper Danny Plume said: “Going to Trojans will be a tricky game, but we want to carry on our winning ways away and also build on our first home victory."
Division 3 leaders Bashley (Rydal) II host third-placed Waterloovile at the BCG, while second place Basingstoke go to depleted Alton II.
Erratic Fair Oak have Ed Kemp and Richard Featherstone back against Purbrook, but Bradfield captain Charlie Gwynn misses the next four games.
Fair Oak: W.Hughes, T.Hockenhull, R.Featherstone, E.Kemp, R.Bullough, R.Oxley, A.Abbas, G.McKenzie, R.Stewart, A.Mash, A.Sturman
New Winchester City soccer signing Oli Bailey makes his first Hursley Park appearance of the season alongside the returning Oli Green against Fawley at The Quarters, where Paul Marks is desperate to halt a five-match losing sequence which has left his side 34 points of safety. Andy and son Bradley Parratt are back for mid-table Fawley.
Hursley Park: Marks, Deacon, Priddle, Branford, Bailey, Turner, Flynn, Green, Solanki, James, Burns.
Fawley: A Parratt, Rice, Brown, C Earl C, E Earl, Freeman, Smith, Nason, Bryers, B Parratt, Cole.
