Key West Rangers remain third after opponents Dandy Town Roots let a two-goal lead slip and ended up with just a point in a 2-2 draw.

Roots went at Key West right from the opening whistle and took the lead when Roddy Piper miskicked an easy clearance and gave Walter Musson the simple task of slotting the ball past the helpless Andre Hendrickson in goal.

A stuttering Key West found themselves two down after Roots? one-touch play ended with Adam Outerbridge driving a low shot inside Hendrickson?s near post.

Key West were handed a lifeline when Earl Richardson fired home a penalty after Scott Morton handled in the area. And they came alive in the second half with substitute Janeiro Tucker grabbing a point for his team after his inswinging corner evaded the Roots ?keeper.

Lobster Pot could only muster a 1-1 draw against lowly St. George?s All-Stars. Pot?s Joe Carolo found the net from six yards with a well-finished right-footed effort late in the first half but a 65th minute Lionel Cann penalty earned the East Enders a point.

Tuff Dogs drew 2-2 with PHC in a fiery encounter at Southampton Oval which saw Dogs? Chris Pett dismissed for dissent before the game was ended early as it spiralled out of control with dangerous tackles flying in from all angles.

Commercial C tabletoppers Somerset Extros are now the only side left with a one hundred percent record in the entire league after a 5-2 win over Dandy Town C.

The Trojans old boys side were virtually camped in the visitors? half during the first period but needed a late penalty, converted by goalkeeper Gladstone (Old Hell) Robinson, to finally take the lead.

Blustery conditions, which had made a mockery of the first half, subsided in the second half and Extros began to open up the game.

Manager Brian Iris scored a hat-trick after coming on as substitute while Mike Corday also hit the target. Dandy Town enjoyed a late rally with Wylie Rudo and Dennis Webb pouncing on defensive errors but their efforts were too late to save the game.

MR Onions showed no mercy against eight-man Warwick and racked up 21 goals without reply.
