Kyushu Yakuza 2-1 Sarnians
Well, considering we were away, playing an inexperienced side,
and were reduced to 10 men early in the second half, we are not
that disappointing to only have lost to a 91 minute winner from
Yakuza.
The bigger disappointment is that Eddie Staggs and Steve McQueen
have got themselves suspended for the cup final against
Manchester United on Wednesday night.
But that game is the one we set out as our priority months ago
and so we lo’ ahead to the game and a chance of silverwear.

Dull as dishwater final match of the season
The Nikara Dragons players look to have been on holiday a week
early as they stumbled to a depressing 0-0 draw in the season
finale against the Eastern Whirlwinds. To be honest, 0-0
flattered the Dragons a bit who were second best throughout the
contest. In the end it was a man of the match performance from
"The Greek Freak", Dave Zachariadis who kept the Dragons in the
game with multiple world class saves.
How the teams lined up
Tactically the Nikara Dragons felt they had an advantage
leveraging their European style against the counter attacking
style of the Eastern Whirlwinds. That tactical advantage was
offset by the Easter Whirlwinds home field advantage so it
probably all came out in the wash. The Whirlwinds stuck with
there trusty 442 formation whilst the Dragons continued for the
5th consecutive week in a 433 formation, although midfielder
Anders Limt remained out of position as a striker despite his
measly 12 rated finishing.
The other surprise was the substitutions with the first coming
on 30 minutes when Vitor Melav was unceremoniously ditched for
Vilo Fleuss. The next came at half time when top striker Hatori
Hanzo was subbed for 13 rated Georginio Rutter who proceeded to
do absolutely nothing.
What the stats tell us
The stats tells us that the Dragons were lucky. Despite having
the most possession at 54% (a glamour stat if ever there was
one) all the actual creative work was done by the Whirlwind who
outshot the Dragons 14-11 and had 7 on target vs 5 for the
Dragons. The 3-1 corner count in the Eastern's favour show just
how pointless the Dragons emphasis on set pieces is. That said
in the end the only number that matters is 0, which is the
number of fans that were entertained by this game.
What did the manager have to say
In a bizarre twist the Dragons manager forgot to show up for the
post match press conference. When he was finally found in the
car park he said that he didn't realise that was part of the job
and that if the club wanted him to talk after the game they
would need to start paying him time and a half for the overtime.
If this guy is still in charge at the beginning of next season
it'll be a miracle.

Golden Eagles FC celebrate winning the division 2 title, but it
was a little bitter-sweet after losing their final game of the
season 0-2 at home against Robbaillie Escocia. Eagles found
Robbaillie tough to breakdown 5 man defense and when they did
their shooting was woeful. Much of the game stats were fairly
even, but the 1 that mattered the most was shots on target,
Robbaillie had 7 compared to Eagles' measly 2.
R. Bjelica thought he had given the visitors the lead after only
4 minutes with a cheeky chip over Kamil Uzbaezanov, but it was
disallowed for handball. Eagles them survived a penalty scare,
Eric Van Oist appeared to knock R. Bjelica to the floor, but the
ref ignored the Robbaillie players' protests.
The away side's pressue finally payed off in the 23 minute, as
Cul MacGilip's struck a sweet volley that stunned the home fans
into silence. The Eagles fans then started nervously looking at
their phones, seeing that Helsinki Hellhounds were 2-0 up
themselves against AFC Coventry after 30 minutes.
Things got even worse for Eagles just after half-time, W.
Michlig put Robbaillie 2-0, after his shot pinged in off the
post. Angelo Nazari had a golden opportunity (no pun intended)
to pull a goal back just before the hour mark, his initial shot
was saved by W. Rotunda. However, he somehow put his second shot
wide at close range, causing him to slump to his knees.
It was squeaky but time all around the stadium for the last 30
minutes, with Robbaillie not letting up their pressue and news
from The Rose Bowl had Hellhounds 3-0 up. Eagles 12 goal
difference advantage over their Finnish rivals was now down to
7!
Pavel Chernyshev and Alessio Kovacic both had well struck shots
saved by W. Rotunda and Taavi Ruusumäki put 2 shots wide. Kamil
Uzbaezanov also saved well from Cul MacGilip.
As things finished 0-2 at Ealges Stadium, news filtered through
that Hellhounds hadn't scored anymore and that meant Eagles were
division 2 champions! The crowd and the players erupted in
celebration, the poor performance and result was totally
forgotten, as Eagles were presented the division 2 trophy!
Eagles manager Dave Rosewell (who was drenched in Champagne)
commented "Well, we didn't make it easy on ourselves today, the
boys had one of those days, I think the pressure got to us a
little maybe. However, now is not the time to think about that,
it is time to celebrate! The lads have worked hard this season
and the supporters have been with us every step of the way and I
believe we fully deserve this!"
With Eagles now Champions, Hellhounds victory meant they held on
to 2nd place and Robbaillie clinched 3rd (and the final
automatic promotion spot) as Kingfisher Dolphins beat Cockney
Cockrells 4-3. Those 2 teams will face-off again in the
play-offs next Saturday.

Highland Ranges played out a draw in their last match of the
season. Neither team looked to have much interest in the game
with little to play for and looked like the players minds were
on the beach already.
Highland manager said that the team have shown some improvement
in the later part of the season and hope they can put up a
better showing next season. The team will look to improve there
squad over the closed season but are not going to be letting the
younger starts leave they team as that will be against the teams
best interests.
He also said that the five younger squad players will form the
backbone of the team and the fans might have to be a little
patient. In the long run investing in youth is the best way
forward for the team.

[move][glow=red,2,300]AFC Coventry 0 - 3 Helsinki
Hellhounds[/glow][/move]
Match overview
Glory glory Helsinki Hellhounds!! The Hellhounds finished their
season off in style as they ran out three nil victors and
comfortably secured the result that guaranteed promotion. The
result left Helsinki tied for 1st but lose the title on goals
difference.
How they lined up
Helsinki went for 3 at the back and the extra man in midfield as
usual. European football and domination of the ball was intended
to counter opponents.
Coventry kept to their 5 man defence as anticipated and played
right into their opponents hands.
Match action
Harrisjones scored a well deserved brace and is fast growing
into a high quality support striker for Laszlokiss. Shynkarenko
was the other name to get on the scoresheet. Tanaka, Shepard and
Reece Evans got three assists - moving Evans to 10 assists for
the season!!
Manager's mouthful
Since I took over in week 9, no other club has claimed more
points than us. That is testament to how well the lads have
played. They have delivered time and again. I give them the
instructions but they go out and put it all together.
Man of the match
Harrisjones for his double and all round performance. Well done.

Caretaker manager Dave Rosewell's final game in charge of United
1908 ended in a 0-0 draw. United found their opponents -
Highland Rangers set up very well, their long ball tactics
caught out the visitors several times and it was only down
keeper A. Schetynsky who kept United in the game with an
impressive 9 saves. You could argue maybe the hosts deserved the
3 points, despite United having a bit more of the ball, it was
the former who has the bulk of the chances (11/6).
Jay Jay Summs and Oliver Dunst both had great opportunities to
open the scoring early on. Summs' 3rd minute strike was well
saved by Schetynsky. While Dunst's effort hit the side netting
at a tight angle a couple of minutes later.
Jiang Zuya's shot from a Martin Savers' free kick was only just
tipped over the bar by the United keeper in the 23rd minute.
Psotos Illyte then struck glorious overhead kick in the 41st
mintue, but was well saved by Zandor Steele. While Ollie
Watkins' diving header into first half stoppage time was punched
away by Schetynsky.
The 2nd half was much of the same, Sub Artem Kolinko's 64th
minute drive hit the post. Summs' dipping effort in the 79th
mintue had Schetynsky beat, but it dipped too late and landed on
the roof of the net. The game was like both sides had force
fields around their goals!
The game finished 0-0, but not before Jonas Lenztz fouled
Kolinko and was lucky to only escape with a yellow. After the
match, Schetynsky was awarded with the man of the match and
rightly so, aside from some bright sparks from Illyte and
Kolinko, the rest of United were bit sub-par.
"Well it was a shame not to win our final game, but another
clean sheet is still s good result considering how many chances
our opponents had. I've really enjoyed my time here and I wish
the players and the club all the luck in the future."
United draw sees them drop to 9th on goal difference, after Sky
Blues won their final game of the season against Thames
Ironworks. Permanent manager Wayne Lupton is expected to return
during the break before Sesson 4 kicks off.

[font=comic sans ms] Kyushu Yakuza 2 - 1 Sarnians
SCORERS: Jack_Groves, F_Inchcombe
It was not the match we expected, it was intense and too tight
for comfort. We went into the match with a very slim chance
coming out of it as league champions, which sadly didnt happen.
The team looked nervous and possibly may isay scared, its an
issue you can see in youth at important times but we thougt we
had enough experience to see us through it. Lucky for us we had
and we picked up the three points.
IN the match itself Sarnians were unlucky I didn't think they
deserved the red card and that maybe gave us the edge in the
game which was enough to see us over the line. Groves and
Inchcombe were our scorers on the day. As was said afterwards we
had to win to have the chance and if we had lost and so did Rael
wed regret it but at least this way we did as we needed but it
was just too little too late[/font]
