It’s been 6 years in the making this league title, we’ve come close on a few occasions but this time we’ve fucking done it!
And to win the league with a 10-1 away victory tonight is the icing on the cake 🏆
A special mention to our manager
@nickjhartigan
and his lads, been outstanding all season only losing 1 game and topping the league pretty much all season.
Well done Nick and the lads phenomenal effort 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Not everyday you make it to a cup final, but today we did!
The lads drew 1-1 at full-time with Dom Doyle with
@JamesJa19130293
scoring our goal only for it to go to penalties.
Will Chadwick pulled off two quality saves and we progressed to the final winning 4-3 on penalties
We had to check twice with the manager about this one 👀
But at the ripe old age of 46…

So we finish the year where we started it🔝
The lads produced another immense performance today and should have been 5 or 6 nil before we went down to 10 men.
But even then we control the game to finish 4-1 winner.

Everyone at the club is wishing him a full and speedy recovery.

We’ve now lost 100’s of £££ in our budget and the league want us to pay more for referees.
