The final game of the 7 a side league gave us an ultimately comfortable 3 - 1 win leaving us ideally placed to just avoid any chance of promotion after a four win sequence. The first half was combative in a football sense with neither side establishing superiority but they scored a breakaway goal with Kev unsighted to leave us facing a deficit for the first time in a while. As we kicked off they were encouraging one another to keep the game tight but an equalizer came immediately from the restart with a right foot shot firmly hit home by Iain.
Given his debut by Kevin in an astute piece of management, Darren, Matt's brother, scored a few minutes later following good control and an assured finish, not attributes often associated with our play! His presence and skills meant that David was not missed as much as could have been the case but there were a few nervy moments before Iain got his second and the clincher on the final whistle.
In Glen's football the destination of the league is still unknown as Chickerell's final game of the season was postponed due to the bad weather. Both They and Rossgarth will play on Sunday to decide the outcome. Their games, several miles apart should see the Dorset FA using a helicopter to take the trophy to the winning ground I expect.
