Prestwick St. Nicholas/3/0/0/3/4.5/13.5/-9/0

With only three matches remaining, Largs Routenburn have an outside chance of overtaking Annanhill, but would require comprehensive wins in their final two matches, on 19th July at Prestwick St. Nicholas and 26th July, in the return match against the same club at home.
