It was the final game of the league season and after the initial win we enjoyed in the first game we have managed to put together a run of 7 matches in a row without a point. No real surprise in that as we were always going to struggle in the rarified atmosphere of the premiership.
We lost 3 - 1 with only a penalty to show for our endeavours and it isn't hard to see whay we struggled with just 9 goals scored in the 8 games.
However, we are more than competent in the championship and look forward to the new season with relish as we have begun to strengthen the squad.
Dougie played in goal and made several great saves even using his face on two occasions!
In defence we lined up with Matt and Craig in the absence of Dom who decided to play for the opposition as they were one short. Despite that they still beat us! We also had Vern who had played a couple of weeks previously.
In the middle we had one pint Pete this week and the returning Spanish Dave.
For what it's worth, I was up front and managed to gain the penalty when Dom generously handled in the area.
With Phil, Rich and Dave to return, we have quite a squad now and will be top of the league to gain promotion in a few months time.
