Well, it doesn't get any closer than this years competition. With only one match to play, Thirsk and Bedale were joint leaders on 84 points although Thirsk had a far superior 'shots for'. However, while Bedale were winning at Northallerton, Thirsk were losing at home to Sessay so Bedale became Champions - well done!
