The only interest in this section centres on the bottom teams' attempts to avoid relegation, and although Kowloon B.G.C. "B" are at the moment occupying the cellar position, several other clubs are not yet out of the wood.

Footballers are now five points | ahend-a lead which may make all the difference to their cham- pionship aspirations.
