Football fourths return from the dead
The performance was immaterial, all that mattered was the result, and thankfully after trailing 2-0 half-way through the second-half the victory was obtained.
The equation is now simple - our final game of the season decides whether we are champions, and secure promotion.
That afternoon, we showed great character to win. Two sloppy goals were conceded and perhaps we would have collapsed earlier in the season, but we climbed out of reverse and eventually found our way into fifth gear. Dazzla Darren led the fight back, dominating the attacks, first converting a cross from Ryan, and then lobbing the keeper in a shot reminiscent of Asprilla at his best. The winner was scored a few minutes from time, with Darren again dribbling to the bye-line and crossing to the back post. Leasping like a salmon in spring, Ryan (the shortest player on the field) made no mistake with a clinical finish.
His overall performance was magnificent - after suffering an early injury he bravely battled on and deservedly scored the winner thanks to his unselfish running.
Paul also played a crucial part, as indeed he has done all season, in this game clearing off the line in the last minute! This was, needless to say, caused by a mistake from Captain Stuart, who, after losing all his kit only just managed to get both his brain cells into gear and direct his team to the game
