Sidey’s champs-in-waiting in TFA

And they have every reason to do so as their team Speyside edged past Roxborough Lakers 3-2 at the Cyd Gray Stadium on Tuesday. Ace goal scorer Pavel Warrick doubled up for the champions-in-waiting, while Akeem Jordan got the other goal.

Challengers Leeds United, who led the standings previously, were held to a 2-2 draw by Georgia in the earlier game at the same venue.

So Sidey’s have leapt to a clear nine-point lead with 43 points to Leeds’34. Both teams have five games remaining in the threeround series.

Despite their defeat, Roxborough Lakers with 30 points are challenging for the runners-up position with a game in hand to Leeds.
