Now we are pretty much secure in 4th in SL.
Im still finding my head is spinning about it all especially when you consider that I though we would never get there when I heard the rumours back then that SL was going to become a closed shop (Which to a degree it has).

As I can still remember Byron losing the ball/not catching the ball with the line begging to probably win the game for us that day which cost us any real chance of 1st in the league, Well that and us losing to Haven at our place when the freak won it for them all on his own(With a little help from Byron).
