Cricklade Town champions of the North Wiltshire Veterans' Division
North Wiltshire Division
The last two games of the season were played last week in the North Wiltshire Veterans' division of the Corsham Print Wiltshire Senior League. With matters already decided the game at the Corinium Stadium between champions
Cricklade Town and runners-up
Nationwide had nothing riding on it accept for the fact that Cricklade Town had the opportunity to end their season unbeaten from their 20 league games. It was to prove to be Cricklade's night as they took control of the game early on and never looked in danger of not achieving that unbeaten tag. Leading scorer TJ Bohane fired them ahead with a well taken goal, making it 40 for the season for Bohane. Phil Corcoran then doubled the Cricklade lead going into the break with another well taken goal. Disaster stuck for Nationwide seven minutes into the second half when the influential Paul Stonehouse mistimed his tackle and brought down Bohane on the edge of the box when he was clean through on goal. A red card was shown to Stonehouse, which probably would not have impacted the result of this game on the night, but the ramifications will be felt this coming week as Stonehouse is now set to be suspended from Thursday's cup final against Durrington. Cricklade added a third through Stuart Hughes to end their season with a 3-0 win to finish with 19 victories and one draw from their 20 games, 12 points clear of Nationwide at the top of the table, registering their third consecutive league title in the process.

Nationwide, runners-up in the North Wiltshire Veterans' Division
The other game played in the division saw Penhill United end their season on a winning note with a 4-1 win over bottom of the table FS Swindon. Gary Pike led the way for Penhill, scoring twice with further goals from Joe Anderson and Jamie Ashby, the latter ending his season with an impressive total of 18 goals for the season, Robert Goodright with the consolation goal for FS Swindon. It has been a good season for Penhill who have ended the season in fourth spot with 12 wins from their 20 games and they could well challenge for league honours next season. FS Swindon have improved as their first season in the league has gone on and will be looking for an improved showing next season.
Mid Wiltshire Division
There was just the one game played last week in the Mid Wiltshire Division as unfortunately the crucial game at the top of the division between Durrington and Devizes Town did not take place with Devizes Town unable to raise a side. The consequential award of the three points to Durrington means that a play-off will now be needed to decide honours in the division with Melksham Town and Durrington both ending the season on 52 points and with goal difference not being able to be used to differentiate teams as a result of games being awarded in the Veterans' divisions when a side cannot be raised. The play-off is set to take place next Tuesday, 13th May at Green Lane with a 9PM kick-off. Cup rules will apply so if the teams are level at the end of normal time penalties will take place to decide the league winners.
The one game that did take place saw Radstock Town and Bishops Cannings complete their fixtures when they met at Southfields Recreation Ground. It was to prove to be a good night for Radstock as they netted four times without reply to claim the three points. On target for Radstock in the 4-0 win were Jack Broadway with two, taking his final tally for the season into double figures, Adam Pugsley and Steven Gilham. The win for Radstock Town sees them finish the season in eighth place, one point behind Calne Town.
