Despite Coastal Spirit losing to Cashmere Technical last evening, Coastal have secured a spot in the Southern Conference, thanks to Christchurch United win over Ferrymead Bays, as none of current three bottom sides can match Coastal's 22 points.
Updated Table: With Cashmere Technical and Coastal Spirit assured of a finishing in the top five, with ChCh United and Suburbs needing four more points to join them, with Nomads big win over Halswell today assisting their goal difference which may be the deciding factor, with Selwyn needing maximum points to have any hope of making the cut plus needing other results to go their way. Run in as follows for teams 3rd to 7th - (H) - Home (A) = Away United - Suburbs (H), Halswell (A), Coastal (H) Suburbs - United (A), Bays (H), Technical (A) Nomads - Coastal (H), Technical (H), Selwyn (A) Bays - Technical (A), Suburbs (A), Halswell (H) Selwyn - Halswell (H), Coastal (A), Nomads (H)

Two milestones I missed in recent weeks with both Cashmere Technical and Nomads becoming just the fourth and fifth club respectively to achieve 450 league points, the other clubs being Ferrymead Bays, Nelson Suburbs and Western.
Cashmere Technical the fastest to reach the '450 Club' in 181 games, Nelson Suburbs 247, Ferrymead Bays 257, Western 275 and Nomads 312.
Another individual milestone reached on Saturday with Daniel Thoms scoring his 50th MPL goal when scoring for Nomads, his 11th of the season to top the Golden Boot Ladder. Daniel now moves to 13th on the all time goal list.

Coastal Spirit's win over Halswell last evening was there 100 in the MPL, from 208 games - 55 Home wins and 45 Away. They become just the seventh club to achieve this milestone, other clubs being Cashmere Technical., Ferrymead Bays, Halswell, Nelson Suburbs, Nomads and Western.
Updated table: Nelson Suburbs draw today's should confirm them of a top five place and a place in the up coming Southern Conference / League. Selwyn need to win against Coastal tomorrow to keep alive their chances of a top five finish.
Final team in the top three yet to be determined in the Football South Premiership after today's games, with Southern Royal and Green Island guaranteed a place with final place between Roslyn and Otago University.

Can someone who was there explain this last few minutes of madness, which means no more Bays? Apologies, I can't seem to resize the image in this new forum...
Today's results Coastal Spirit 1 (Dominic McGarr) Selwyn 4 (Dan Ede 3, Luke Blackie) Ht 1 - 4
Selwyn can now make the top five if they defeat Nomads in the final round by 2 clear goals. Nelson Suburbs can not afford a heavy loss against Cashmere Technical or they could miss the top five cut, if Selwyn win, as Suburbs, Nomads and Selwyn will all finish on 18 points so will be then down to goal difference.
What happened a few years back when the deciding factor was not goal difference, as that was even, but goals scored? Who and how did that come to pass?
