Aug 29 2011 By Greg Burns

GERRARDS Cross moved out of the relegation zone even though their derby clash with Farnham Royal was rained off.

The Cross' Home Counties Division Two West fate will be decided on the final game of the season at Reading after their weekend washout.

The Royal's posted 154 for nine before heavy rain saturated the pitch and the home side were not able to take to the pitch again.

In the Morrants Thames Valley League Division One, Amersham beat Thatcham while Beaconsfield lost to Henley.

In Division 2B, Chesham remain top with a win over Wokingham which keeps their lead at the top of the table to one point ahead of the final round of games next weekend.
