The London Lions are up to third now after they defeated Bristol Flyers in a tight low scoring contest in the South West, whilst the Surrey Scorchers racked up 104 points on the road in Glasgow against the Rocks to take an impressive nineteen point victory to tie up with their opponents in the table.
Here are this weekends fixtures in the BBL Championship:-
Saturday 25th November

Sunday 26th November

Plymouth Raiders Vs Newcastle Eagles
Manchester Giants Vs Bristol Flyers
Cheshire Phoenix Vs Leeds Force
The Eagles put their 1.000 record on the line with a mini tour of South West England this weekend, taking in road trips to Bristol Flyers and Plymouth Raiders on Saturday/Sunday and with none of the other top five in action gives the North East side the chance to really open up a big gap at the top, already four points before this weekend.
I'll be back to see what happens with my blog next week.
