New Zealand Club Football Team Rankings - 15 July 2013


Cashmere Technical continues their charge at the top of this week’s Rankings and they now have a six point lead on Birkenhead Utd, the Rankings new #2 side. The newly promoted Aucklanders have had an impressive season to date, and football folk are talking about a possible league and Chatham Cup double for them – Aucklanders shouldn’t forget Cashmere Technical though! And the chance of a double can still said of two other top New Zealand club sides: Wellington Olympic and Caversham AFC.  However, previous #2 Caversham AFC suffered a 3-0 defeat at the hands of their old rivals Dunedin Technical and fall to #3 in the Rankings - the FSPL title is starting to look a little beyond ‘The Train’.  Likewise Wellington Olympic also dropped points last week, firstly in a 3-0 home defeat by Lower Hutt City in midweek catch-up game, and then in a 3-3 draw with Upper Hutt City in the weekend.  The Greeks fall three spots to #6 and it’s their arch-rivals Miramar Rangers that jump two spots over them to #4. The Blue and blacks have their site firmly on the CPL title now and will take some stopping.

There are no really big movers this week, but Waitakere City continue to crawl up the Rankings and away from the bottom of the NRPL– the 2013 NRPL relegation battle is shaping up to be a fascinating affair.  And on that note look at for Waitakere City this coming week as they face an away trip to Birkenhead Utd.  Elsewhere Lower Hutt City are a significant barrier facing Miramar Rangers in their run-in to the CPL title, and the Green Island Roslyn Wakari game is also key at the top of the FSPL.
