With their hopes high on returning to top-flight football after being relegated in the Premier Division last season, Rangers have impressed in the first half of the season and are already favoured to grab one of the two promotion spots.

Yesterday they brushed aside St. George’s Colts with yet another solid display with top goal-scorer Henry Santucci adding to his season tally while further goals came from Tafari Mallory and Lamaul Weeks. Young Richard Dickinson was the lone scorer for the East Enders.

Wolves 0

Wolves, who entered the contest at Police field in second place, suffered an embarrassing defeat against Devonshire Colts who were in third place prior to kick-off.

Prospect 1<$>

At Southampton Oval, home side Rangers easily dealt with Prospect, with Dawud Tucker scoring a hat-trick and Jomar Charles getting the other goal. Quinton Francis got the lone strike for Prospect.
