Another Title Challenge Bites The Dust

Firstly, a huge congratulations to Retador who were a picture of consistency for majority of the season. It could be said that the pulling out of St Andrews at an untimely manner meant that the initiative was handed to Retador in the title race. However, we cannot take away the fact that they were arguably the best footballing side this season. Well played boys. 

Back to us, with the gaffer himself out of action and a whole host of players missing due to the Ramadan period, the "title deciding game" was always going to be an uphill struggle. 

The scoreline according to various sources could have been so very different with us scoring early on. And then missing chances to double our lead. 

Unfortunately, our lengthy absence from the pitch told as we contrived to shoot ourselves in the foot and allowed our opponents a foothold in the game with our ill advised concessions at the back. 

In the end, failure to take our chances in front of the Retador goal meant we were on the receiving end of a 1-3 defeat. Perhaps it could have been so very different. 

But then again, perhaps we will live on the moon someday. Another season of failure at the finishing line. We will lick our wounds and another title shot come next season will hang in the balance for now. 

Cheers Retador and to all them teams for Season 11 Saturday Div 1.
