St. George's closing in on Title

Reigning Champions St. George's can move eight points clear of Peel at the top of the Sure Mobile Premier League this evening.

The newly crowned F.A. Cup winners will move closer to the double if they return from a tricky away fixture against Laxey at Glen Road with three points.

With six games to go, Geordies have collected 51 points....just ten less than their total when winning the title last year.
