How does that league table work then. Does it depend upon which section you finish in? Do you go on to play someone from another etc?

After Wednesday's games the 28 teams in the Junior Section will be placed in order 1 to 28 according to the points gained from their three games. In the event of teams being level on a number of points, additional criteria will be used to confirm their finishing positions.

Teams placed 1 to 4 will play in the semi finals of the Dale Farm Milk Cup
Teams placed 5 to 8 will play in the semi finals of the Dale Farm Milk Cup Globe
Teams placed 9 to 12 will play in the semi finals of the Dale Farm Milk Cup Vase
Teams placed 13 to 16 will play in the semi finals of the Dale Farm Milk Cup Bowl
Teams placed 17 to 20 will play in the semi finals of the Dale Farm Milk Cup Salver
Teams placed 21 to 24 will play in the semi finals of the Dale Farm Milk Cup Shield
Teams placed 25 to 28 will play in the semi finals of the Dale Farm Milk Cup Medallion

Semi finals will be played on Thursday 31st July, teams defeated on Thursday will play place games on Friday 1st August and of course the Finals of the seven levels of competition named above will also be played on Friday 1st August.

What's the point though? With clubs like Southampton and Liverpool also in the competition, if Argyle do well any good players we have simply be poached by Southampton only for them to then by poached by Liverpool a couple of years later.

Currently joint top with Rangers with +6 goal difference. Win against Sydney and they will probably finish in the top 4.
