HAUGHTON AT THE DOUBLE


Haughton Grey Horse signed off the season in style by bagging the Technocopy Cup after pipping Allstars 4-3 in an action packed encounter at Blackwell Meadows.
John Nimmo, Justin Rawlinson and Cristian Holiday all netted as Grey Horse looked to be galloping away. However, Michael Richardson pulled one back before Holliday saw read. Allstars made the numerical advantage count and Richardson completed his hat-trick to draw his side level.
The DSIL Cup Finals have proved tough to call this year and this final also had a late twist. With extra-time looking likely, up popped Captain Jamie Bowman to head home the winner with only mins to go.
After loosing to their ‘noisy neighbors’ in the inaugural Charity Cup at the start of the Campaign, the win will be extra sweet for Ronnie Coleman’s side who can rightly claim bragging rights as DSIL ‘Top Dogs’. It has been a record breaking season for Grey Horse and it will be a brave man who bets against them in 2012/13.
The curtain falls on the 2011/12 season as Railway Institute welcome The Deacon to the Hummersknott Arena in their rearranged fixture. Spectators are welcome, kick off is 10.30am.
If you fancy getting involved in the action next year, why not join the DSIL who are looking for new teams for the 2012/13 season. For further information see the league’s website, www.dsil.org.uk and contact the League Secretary by phone or email.
