Novia and Red Star will both battle it out on the last game of the season for the title. Red Star will need to win the match, whilst a draw will be enough for Novia to capture their first Sporting League title…Bayerns are still on course for a huge bonus depending on the results between the top two on the last day of the season as they can still finish 2nd after a 1-0 win against Delta…Athletico ended their lacklustre end to the season with a 3-2 win away to Zindustrious…Athletico boss: ‘Very pleased with the players response today. I’m probably going to ship out a few of the older players over the summer, so we’re essentially looking at a long term rebuilding exercise.’
It’s been a fixture list brimming with injuries, namely to Novia’s no1 player as they went down 2-1 at home to a bruising Dons side…Red Star narrowed the gap at the top to just 2 points after dispatching a fatigued Muno 3-0…Liver Halvers were booed and jeered as they played a defensive game against a rejuvenated Pacifica…Tranquilayers had a turgid performance against Olby as their defence suffered from the usefulness of a chocolate fireguard syndrome…Bayerns still have an outsiders chance after beating Colne 3-1…Sporting Commentary…’I thought Bayerns would’ve been in there right at the end, but it just wasn’t to be. It’s been a season of nothing to be absolutely honest with you.’
The Athletico boss was furious at how his side appeared to roll over against league leaders Novia. ‘What was that out there? We just rolled over and buried our heads in the sand. I’ll tell you one thing…none of those players out there this evening will play another game this season, I’m giving the kids a chance to prove themselves now.’
Rumour mill…Delta have confirmed that they’re parting with their manager 0f 12 years at the end of the season.
