07 Vestur and AB Argir win promotion to the Formula Division 2009

With 1 round to go in the first division, 07 Vestur and AB Argir made sure, with comfortable victories over NSÍ Runavík and KÍ Klaksvík, respectively, that they will not be caught by VB/Sumba in 3rd place.

The 3 of them, 07 Vestur, AB and VB/Sumba, have been battling it out for the whole season, but as VB/Sumba lost to Víkingur today and also lost the key fixture against 07 Vestur last week, VB/Sumba threw away their chance of promotion this year. VB/Sumba were relegated from the Formula Division last season, you might remember.

Also AB were in the Formula Division last season, but their first visit in the top flight only lasted that first year.

07 Vestur wasn’t founded until November 2007. However, the club isn´t quite new, as it is a merger between FS Vágar and SÍ Sørvágur.

With one round to go, this is the table in the 1st division:

07 Vestur 62 points
AB Argir 61 points
VB/Sumba 56 points
