Massie Lodge appears to have placed the Level 8 League title safely into their trophy cabinet following a comfortable 3-0 home win against the strong Belgium opponent who was running 3rd. Opponents arrived with a strange 4-1-3N-1-1 formation as opposed to their usual 442 calssic, so the manager easily countered this with a 3N-1-4W-1-1. Two first half goals followed by a 3rd in the 55th minute & the game was all over red rover. The second team in the League could only manage a draw so with 6 games remaining Massie lodge now lie 11 points clear at the top of the table. We would have to lose four of the final six games to allow the trophy to slip from our grasp, & that will not be happening.
A comfortable 1-4 away win in the Cup semi final using our second stringers against the Level 6 opposition should see the lads step into their 4th consecutive Cup final with a view to retain the trophy won last season.
