The 1st XI’s League Match at Chessington KCFC has been called off tomorrow, as our Opponents are unable to field a team. This is obviously a real pain, although on the plus side, it should mean that we will be Champions with a game to spare. This is on the basis that we should be awarded the 3 points following the SSEC League meeting this coming Monday.

So a massive WELL DONE done to Jim, Marc and the Squad on their great achievement. Hopefully the Team can see out their campaign in the coming weeks, which culminates in the League Cup Final against West Fulham FC on the 6th May. Full details to follow on this and your support will be most welcome.

The team are meeting at the Club tomorrow from 2.00pm for plenty of celebratory beers.

The 1st XI secured a convincing 7 – 0 victory over Ashtead FC at Poplar Road this afternoon. The Ruts goals came courtesy of a Hatrick from OR’s MOTM Michael Beard, with the other strikes coming from Paul Whitthread, Zac Graham, Chris Beard and a Salmon-esque effort from the ‘Burger Winning’ Duncan Fraser (Ask Kyle).

The 3rd XI went down 2 – 1 at Shaftesbury Town ‘A’ FC to add to their woes as they aim to avoid the drop. Ben Kennett notched the OR’s Goal.

The 1st XI won 5 – 0 at Wandgas Sports in the League, largely thanks to a blistering first half display which saw them 4 – 0 up at the interval thanks to a terrific Hatrick from Ruts MOTM Chris Beard and a decent lob from Graham Rolfe.

The Ruts added a further goal from Billy Liffen in the second half to complete a solid result. Thanks to Big Stephen Asomaning for ably stepping up from the 2nd XI in the sticks until further notice.

As our Fixture Secretary is away on vacation we are awaiting confirmation of most of the KO times.

The 1st XI put in a very solid, albeit not a glamorous performance in their quest for the title today, as they managed to overcome Hanworth Sports 4 – 1 away in the League.

The Ruts went ahead on 5 minutes from the spot after Michael Beard was upended and Zac Graham promptly slotted home. The hosts levelled before the interval, courtesy of an innocuous own goal.
