Colts reined in by St. George?s

Prospect threw cold water on St.David?s? promotion hopes while rekindling their own promotion flame after the men in uniform came away with a narrow win at Police Field.

A Najee Woods 70th minute strike was enough to silence the visiting team who were then reduced to ten men when Dejuan Paynter was sent off five minutes later.

Prospect remain eight points outside of the second automatic promotion spot, while the Islanders, despite yesterday?s loss, remain third in the table, two points ahead of fourth-place St.George?s. Social Club 2 Paget 2

Jahki Outerbridge notched a 90th minute equaliser to earn Social Club a hard-fought share of the spoils against visiting Paget Lions.

Paget led twice in this match played at Bernard Park only to have their host steal a late point at the death.

Kyle Jones got Lions off to roaring start when he broke the deadlock four minutes before the half.

However, Social Club clawed their way back into contention by drawing level eight minutes after the restart when Shervin Jennings converted for the home team.

Former Devonshire Cougar Yuseff Pitt then restored Paget?s lead in the 72nd minute only to have a stubborn Social Club spring a late surprise.

Yesterday?s matches involving Ireland Rangers and Hamilton Parish and X Roads Warriors and Wolves did not get underway.

At Malabar, Parish forfeited the match to Rangers after showing up with only eight players, while Warriors? home clash with Wolves did not start due to an unprepared pitch at Garrison Field.

Last night referee Joe Pimental confirmed that Parish officials had forfeited their league clash, resulting in promotion contenders Rangers receiving three valuable points on a silver platter.
