Palace teams report for Monday...

[Yes, late again, but RL has to take a front seat every now and again...]

Desert Rats FC had two away wins, one in the Cup 1st Leg and the other in the League. Desert Rats made a half-step into the Semi-Finals with a tight 2-1 away win over their opponents, Vinnie Taylor scoring two goals, but he would have had a hat-trick if the home 'keeper hadn't made an excellent save of his penalty kick. In the late afternoon, they cemented their hold on 3rd place in the table with a 4-2 win, Passmore, Ivory, Wojtczak and Haddou scoring, but there was another sting in the tail with a 4-day injury to striker Ivory.

Palace Casuals did themselves no favours by conceding a late goal to draw 2-2 away at the second-bottom team, but striker Liam Cashman kept up his recent scoring form by netting the Casuals' two.

Palace Terriers also had a frustrating draw, this time at home to the 2nd-placed team in their League. Despite having advantage in all stats disciplines, nothing came off for the Terriers, and eventually it was left to Julien van der Plas to equalise the visitors' first-half penalty for a 1-1 final score.
