These two sides met for the 2nd time this week with Roger Morley and Del Bartholomew replacing Alex Clarke and David Wong in the Howard line up. It was a better result for Rainham than the first match but they still lost 6-4 and now cant achieve 2nd spot. Howard look certainties now for  promotion but mathematically Luton 3 can still catch them. John Kane and Roger went unbeaten in this match although were fully tested by Nick Trythall and Mick Hambelton respectively. Del had 2 close 5 leggers with Mick and John Coleman but ultimately lost all his games
