Sullivan's super seventh team won both games
of a double header against Old Westminster Citizens 6s to
move second in the table with a couple of games in
hand.
The prolific Lyons and Williams both hit
hat-tricks in an 8-1 victory to begin - Phillips scoring the
other two - while Sansom, Lyons and Williams all notched in
the following 3-1 victory.
The first side lost 1-0 at home to West
Wickham and remain in mid-table, now three points behind
their opponents.
The 2s were not in action while the 3s, also
at home, won 5-3 against HSBC. They are now fifth in the table, three points
off second spot but having played a couple of games more than
a pair of teams above them.
The 4s won 3-2 at Carhsalton, the bottom side
in their division, while the 5s drew 1-1 at home to West
Wickham.
A 3-1 away victory for the 6s put them five
points clear at the top of the 5s' division, Old Actonians
the opponents.
The eighth side's giant-killing dream was
meanwhile cut short by a well-organised HSBC 4s. The Poly
took a comfortable 3-1 lead in the first half but HSBC's
fitness fared better in the second as they got the crucial
goals needed to take them into the semis of the LFFJ
Cup.
It was a
good day for the 9s, taking four points from a double header
with top of the league Civil Service.
The first game was particularly dramatic,
with Poly taking an early lead through Watkins then
immediately losing it before going back in front on the
stroke of half-time via a Watkins penalty.
The visitors got their reward after the break
with two quick goals but having attacked for most of the game
then made the mistake of trying to defend their hard-won
lead.
After a couple of near misses, Watkins headed
home a corner to claim his hat-trick in the dying
seconds.
The second game began less eventfully, the
Poly going behind midway through the first half.
However a Chicharro cross sailed in and in the second half
the Chiswick side blew their opponents away with a
magnificent four-goal burst including a superb individual run
from Louki, another fine counter-attack set up by the
tireless Moran and converted by Louki, another from the
free-scoring Watkins and one more from Louki - finishing off
the second hat-trick of the day.
