Kingbrough 3rd boy oh boy this year has been bad football. Not offence to Kingbrough but there team is very average. They had twice as good team last year and this shows how bad the rest of the league is.

Devonport have won the league with no striker. Without Stone they create very little

Zebras that is a terrible result at the Den don't see any direction with this team

Agree if Lions were to finish 3rd it would not be a good reflection on the standard of the comp .... fortunately the play South next week and Olympia in the last round so I think you’ll find they’ll finish 5th at the end of the season which to be honest is still too high for some of the performances they’ve rolled out this year.

Title is Ports. CZ missed a golden opportunity. Lins 3rd wtf?. Gap between 1, 2 and the rest in skill etc was very noticeable at plastic Park yesterday.
Knights cash all for naught, nobody remembers 2nd place. Seems you can't buy a title after all.

Go Port!

Boro v Clarence. Worst game seen in a very long time. One worse than the other.
How much longer will Clarence accepts the rubbish that their team dishes up every week.
Bloody hell! The only thing that club seems to have going for them is the kiosk.
Good luck!

Joke of a league, run by incompetents!!

South showed that Knights are nothing special .... after Alex Walter and Joffrey the rest of the Knights squad is very average .. looking forward to the Laka cup semi between these two sides though as it should be another close game and base on yesterday I’d suggest Sourh will go through

Hope Kenny ain’t paying Andy this season what a joke ... funny the side actually looked better when he went off

Dear 6:11pm Anon
Thank you for your cutting edge analysis and insightful reflections on the league as a whole; and for your contribution to the general narrative around the competition. Walter, you may have found the perfect match reporter for games you can't attend.
I for one would be happy to contribute to travel expenses.
Regards David Webb

So much butt-hurt over Boro. lol
This is such a poor season 'cos Boro are doing better than my team. HAHAHA!!!

All you armchair critics that were predicting that Boro would finish bottom of the table better get ready to eat your words.

Boro might not have the flashiest team, or the most hyped up players, but they have assembled a team that have played to their strengths all season, and have battled for every point they have won. They have a collective team effort that many of the 'bigger teams' can't seem to replicate no matter how much money they throw at their clubs.

Unbeaten at the Den this season, and the only club to take points of Devenport, if that's a poor season I'll take the same again next year .

Really, only 2 players have contributed to the team's good season? Were these 2 players instrumental in defence? Were these 2 players the only players setting up goals for the team? True, both players have played a role in the success of the team but the midfield and defensive players as well as the coach are much better than average! Results and the ladder reflect this.

Agree they have well and truly over performed this year and managed some excellent results against those teams above them ... would suggest however that they’re unbeaten run at the Den will come to an end on Saturday ..: but then again stranger things have happened this year

Agree the Knights have had a tight defence this year to go with Alex and Joffrey think what was pretty obvious on Saturday was not a lot in the midfield and even stranger they left a gun midfielder sitting on the bench whole game who I know was injured earlier this season but who I also know is now fit and played in some of the game before ???
