It is as you were at the top of the Mid Wiltshire Veterans’ Division of the Corsham Print Wiltshire Senior League as both leaders Corsham Town and second placed Melksham Town secured home wins. On Monday night Melksham Town were 2-0 winners over League Cup finalists Westbury United thanks to goals from Tom Robinson and Oliver Gee. That win saw Melksham move to within two points of leaders Corsham but come the end of the following night that gap was back at five points after Corsham Town secured an excellent 5-0 win over Durrington. Ross Lye scored twice to double his total for the season and there were further goals from Jamie Lyons, Liam Ralph and Adrian Webb as Corsham restored their five point lead, with Melksham having a game in hand.

The other game played on Monday night saw Chippenham Town record a narrow 3-2 win over Radstock Town, Darren Chitty (2) and Steve Tweddle with the Chippenham goals.

Just two of the scheduled games in the North Wiltshire Veterans’ Division went ahead with Swindon Old Boys unable to raise a side for their game against Coate and then withdrawing from the League two days later.

The two points dropped left Cricklade five points adrift of leaders Redhouse with just three games to play.
