More Downs Than Ups In 65s Wilts County WFL

This was the last match-day in the Wilts 65s league and we started with a squad of 7, of whom 2 (Perry and Andy) were already struggling with injuries.

We started well with a 1 v 1 draw against Swindon who were joint top at that stage, and one of 2 sides who could win the league. In the end, that draw cost them their opportunity to do so. 

But as injuries kicked in big-time, we lost 3 v 0 to Highworth (eventual league winners) and 2 v 1 to Salisbury (by which time our chance to overtake them to finish in 3rd place had disappeared), before finally withdrawing from our last game against Cirencester due to not being able to field a team.

So a disappointing first season in the newly established Over 65s league, but we know we can do better than that. So roll on next season and the chance for us to put things right.

And congratulations to Highworth Town Walking Football Club for sealing the deal, thanks to all participants, especially the referees.
