Our Ladies team has won the Cheshire Women's League title with a game to spare.

While Runcorn Linnets Ladies were winning 3-0 at AFC Stockport - Tempany Carlson, Chelsea Penny and Marcia Jones-Sacharewicz on target - second-placed Egerton FC Ladies were being beaten 2-1 by Wallasey Wanderers. With both Linnets and Egerton having one game left, Runcorn are four points clear and cannot now be caught.

Many congratulations to the management and players of Linnets Ladies, who have done themselves and also the whole club proud all season - and particularly in a hectic last eight days with four crucial victories.

With the first half of the double now secured, all concerned with the Ladies can concentrate on, and prepare for, a League Cup final appearance against Egerton Ladies at Barnton on Sunday, May 8th.
