Southbank ended the 2007-08 season on a high with a 2-1 victory over Associated Asphalt, a result that meant both clubs finished the season on 42 points with AA's running out as Champions thanks only to a superior goal difference.

Midweek results over the last two weeks (The 'Bank seeing off Henley Town 5-0 in one of the performances of the season and AA's beating promotion rivals Barton Rovers 3-2) meant that the top two places were settled going into this final fixture, unless Southbank could pull off a 7-0 win!  Despite the 'dead rubber' scenario a keenly contested match was won with a trademark 30 yard free kick from skipper Jason Wagner.

As Hightower makes plans for Premier Division football in 2008-09 Southbank Reserves Division 3 status is under threat with 11th placed side Park Villa have a chance to overhaul The 'Banks tally of 17 points IF they beat the leagues in form side Spread Eagle.  If Southbank finish in 11th their fate could will lie in the leagues hands but with higher divisions missing teams it would be unlikely that any teams will face relegation from 3 Central this season.
