Results and pictures – Sunday January 6th 2013
![]() | A Happy New Year to you all. Well, it's a good job that we had a Christmas break as all of that rain would have resulted in very little Sunday football. But now we're back and courtesy of the BFSFA committee, here are all of the provisional results from today's programme of league and Cup Sunday Football action. The tables, fixtures and results have now been updated. If in doubt, please call Dennis on 391055. |
