Merit Table Division Seven will provide some mouthwatering match-ups steeped in Phantoms history with games against local rivals Kings Cross Steelers III's, Millwall III's and East London IV's catching the eye.

Indeed it is the two fixtures against former landlords East London which are the only games that we have confirmed dates for at present with the away leg being played on 5th November and the return being played on the 11th February.

Phantoms veteran David Yems is relishing the chance to revisit these old rivalries this season and when he found out the make up of MT Division Seven he had this to say, "We had an idea that some of the teams we would be playing would be a XV of clubs we have always had good rivalries with and to have this confirmed will really capture the imagination of those involved with the club. To play the Steelers, East London and Millwall again will be great fun and fully vindicates our decision to return the club to the Merit Tables".
