There is not too much to report so far, following the Christmas break. We are approaching the end of the 23/24 Season with just two or three matches left to play for each team. My last news was not that good as our teams were all down near the bottom of their respective divisions. Well, I am afraid that injuries and illness have not helped the situation, and our B and C sides are all residing at the bottom of the tables.
To help the situation, we have signed on another player from the North Norfolk League, to help us out, but we unfortunately lost one of our regulars who decided after Christmas that he would transfer to another club, which made us most annoyed. However, the SFC A team have rallied and risen fantastically from bottom of Premier B, and are currently in a safe position to avoid relegation, so very well done to them!
As I am not playing at the present time, my news is brief, although I have been down to the Centre to spur on the lads. They do not seem too down hearted, however, and are generally still enjoying their matches. Maybe a slightly lower level of play would do some of us some good next season,as relegation looks likely, if not certain, unless other teams drop out.
The next issue of the Journal will show you the final season's results, and the current positions are, as you can see, on the latest League tables, critical. Wish us luck!
