After an incredible season, No Saints unfortunately bowed out at the last in a 9-4 defeat to Posh last night, meaning that Red Star Five pipped us to the League Two trophy by one point after they gained an automatic win as their opponents failed to show up.
No Saints were 1-0 down early on but Abib pulled one back to level the scores. A freak goal that Aaron misjudged in goal made it 2-1 and Posh went from strength to strength to hammer home their advantage. Despite a plucky fight back from No Saints including goals from Andy, Nathan and, on his return from an 11 week lay-off, Phil, it wasn’t to be and we finish in second place.
Promotion is gained though and we start next season with tougher opposition where we can test ourselves to the very limit. It’s been a season full of incident, tight games and fight backs that has shown the real spirit in the camp. We’ve kept together a tight knit squad and now can call upon a squad of 9 once Will returns from injury to reclaim his place in goal.
We can be proud of our achievement and although it was disappointing to lose our grip on the title, No Saints have now well and truly lost the tag of league whipping boys.
Onwards to the next level!
