After completing just two fixtures in the Forest of Arden Winter League ony two teams remain with a 100% record. Reigning champions Red Arrows followed up their win over Silver Wings with a 7-2 success at Hobs Meadow Mixes. Stechford Social who were awarded a 5-0 result last week due to Mackadown failing to turn out, had a 7-2 win at the Red Rooster. It looks as if Hobs Meadow captain, Les Wheeler will have to have a few words with Birmingham’s Karen Brady. Because the Blues were playing at home against Newcastle, Hobs were left with two players short and went down 5-4 at Silver Wings.
