FC Aristocrat took a giant step towards the Premier Division title after a 4-1 win over current champions VTS FC at Bedgrove tonight.  They opened up a 4 point gap at the top of the table over Aston Clinton S&SC who beat Rockwood 3-0 - a result that ends any outside title ambitions Rockwood had.

In Div One, The Bell Topboys, already assured of top two finish, beat Padbury United Reserves 4-1 and another win should see them as champions.  Unique FC warmed up for Sunday's Tony Higginson Cup Semi with a 3-1 win over Grenson - a win that makes sure they won't finish in the bottom two this season.

Here's some of the action from the game:
