Against Kirkby Lonsdale last Tuesday they had the better chances but needed a late goal from Tony Hoyle to rescue a point.

That meant they travelled to Cartmel on Saturday knowing that if they lost, Marsh United would be champions.

Storeys were on top in the first half but couldn't score while Cartmel were always dangerous.

The second half again saw Storeys push forward and their winning goal came from an unlikely source as full-back Bob Eccles popped up to score.

If Storeys draw at Ingleton on Saturday, they would be level with Marsh but Storeys would be champions on most wins recorded.

TIC Dynamos have not had a game for three weeks but showed no rustiness in their final game of the season, winning 6-0 over Swarthmoor.

TIC did not relent in the second half to the delight of manager Mike Daley. Mark Wiggins added another and Darren True made it 6-0.

Slyne-with-Hest (LCC) met Torrisholme in a game played for pride last Friday – whoever lost, would finish bottom.

In Division One, Halton Rangers and Morecambe Hoops are promoted following Bentham's inability to win at Storeys Reserves on Saturday.

Bentham knew they had to win against a Storeys team weakened by first team call-ups and cricket.

Both sides played some good football and made plenty of chances but neither was able to put the ball in the back of the net.

Both goalkeepers played well and Bentham threw everything forward to try and win the game, Gary Louth hitting a post.

But they were unable to get the crucial goal and were reduced to 10 men late on after a penalty appeal was turned down.

Storeys Reserves, following a hard-fought midweek 3-1 win over Vine, remain unbeaten in all competitions this season.

Morecambe Hoops sealed their promotion when they beat an under-strength Ingleton Reserves side 7-1 in midweek.

The sides met again on Saturday at Ingleton and this time it was Hoops' turn to be under strength.

Hoops probably had the best chance and apart from having one goal ruled out for hand ball it always looked as though the game would end in a stalemate.

The Hoops have two games to play, against Cartmel Reserves and Storeys Reserves, and are still unbeaten in the league.

Halton Rangers joined them in the Premier Division with a 3-1 win at Cartmel Reserves on Saturday.

Relegated Slyne-with-Hest (LCC) 'A' played well and should have beaten fifth-placed Millhead but had to settle for a 1-1 draw.

Ben Hornby scored for Slyne with Carl Cochrane converting a rare Millhead attack.

Westgate Wanderers had to replay the fixture against Morecambe Royals Reserves due to them playing an ineligible player.

They were second best, but never gave up and deserved to be on the score sheet.

Royals did not have the same problem as veteran Gary O'Keeffe, Matthew Armistead, Joe Entwistle, Adam Campbell and leading scorer Aidan Dunphy found the net.

This left Westgate relegated to Division Two along with Slyne-with-Hest (LCC) A.

Highgrove Reserves are Division Two champions after an excellent run of results to the end of the season.

Midweek wins over Swarthmoor and Middleton meant they were promoted and a 5-0 win over Kirkby Lonsdale Reserves saw them lift the title.

Bolton-le-Sands will be disappointed in missing out on promotion as it stops their Reserve team from also gaining promotion.
