In the latest of the Black Country Super League fixtures Railway Tavern had a close 3-2 win over Allen’s Bar ‘B’ but it was not enough to have their lead reduced at the top of the table as second placed Yeltz Bar ‘A’ handed out a 5-0 whitewash to their visiting team, bottom of the table Rowley Bar and Grill to see them move to within one point of Railway.
In the local derby between Allen’s Bar ‘A’ and Allen’s Bar ‘C’ it was the former and lower in the table ‘A’ team that got the 3-2 verdict and the ‘C’ team, although still third in the league are now some ten points off the top.
