What a league this is turning out to be both Cowbridge Town Reds and Porthkerry Panthers have 100% records. Something has to give so if you’re at a loose end on 15th Feb make your way to St Brides as these two giants meet. That promises to be a cracker as both teams have been a credit to Vale for many in year. Cogan managed to close the gap on the leaders beating Cowbridge Blacks.
