Not to be today or this season for the Boot. A season of nearly’s and runner up places to The Three Horse Shoes. Despite another 1-0 half time lead, the Boot lose 4-1.
Goal scored by: W. Smith.
Match day! Season-ending clash v regular opposition in The Three Horse Shoes.
Injuries from the last two finals and player holidays somewhat alter the squad, but in the final swan song, the lads know the challenge ahead of them v strong opposition.
Kick off: 2pm.
No game in the end tonight for the Boot due to Jacksdale being unable to field a side.
Huge final game of the season ahead on Sunday, again v a team we’ve played 3 times in 4 weeks: The Three Horse Shoes. A big game all involved!
Attention turns back to the league. Two games to play in a week. A league title on the line, again, against The Three Horse Shoes.
Firstly an away game v Jacksdale Social on Wednesday 17th, followed by Sundays home game v Three Horse Shoes on Sunday 21st.
Disappointment for the Boot after they concede a last minute winner to lose 2-1 to The Three Horse Shoes. This final the lads come away feeling disappointed and undeserved after a dominant performance for large parts of the game.
Credit again to the Horse Shoes on their win.
