Roundel 2️⃣ - 0️⃣ Myton
It’s been a while 👀
If you’re feeling tired and can’t sleep tonight, give this a read… because boy, it’s a long one.
That’s the Harold Wilson double completed for the season ✅ as we ran out worthy winners yesterday morning in the season finale.
Results haven’t been the greatest in recent weeks, so yesterday was a satisfying end to a tough season. Numbers were light, but everyone who was available was up for it. It’s always a good battle when we face our neighbours, Myton.
Coatesy turning up in the second half but thinking the ref had blown for half-time, when it was actually full-time, probably stands out most for him. To be fair, he was still in bed for the first half… literally.
Gaffer Kie nearly got a nosebleed playing his fifth game in a row in centre midfield. Much like Eddie Howe did with Joelinton, Kie’s found himself in a new position and looks right at home there. The gaffer can definitely handle himself in the middle.
The first half was fairly mediocre. Both sides had chances but nothing worth writing home about.
Half-time 0️⃣ - 0️⃣
We kicked into life in the second half. Uncle Long sorry, Daddy Long, was playing his second game back after becoming a father in late February to future Roundel number 9, Luca. Congratulations again to Long and his partner Sophie ♥️
Back to the football… Mujeeb playing the ball to Uncle Long who played a lovely cross-field pass to Marc, who lashed home a half-volley from 20 yards. The Myton keeper is probably still standing in the goal now, shell-shocked.
1-0.
That goal was the catalyst to go and grab a second and kill the game off, something we’ve struggled with this season. Yesterday, though, Uncle Long clearly wanted a good story to tell Luca at bedtime. Myton CM missed headed landed to Uncle Long who side footed volleyed it over-the-top through and shout to Mujeeb were perfect, allowing Mujeeb to do what he does best and slot it into the bottom corner.
Great goal. Great assist.
2-0.
Myton had a couple of half chances, but we saw the game and the season, out on a high with a clean sheet.

MOTM 🌟 – Jack Lacy
Hadn’t played a competitive game since October due to work schedules and postponements. Came back in, played 90 minutes at centre-half, and was absolutely rock solid alongside Jonno. The only thing he gave their strikers yesterday was earache, mostly about how he works offshore 3 on, 3 off, if you were wondering. Fantastic again. 🧱
That’s all for now, folks. A few more posts to come in the coming days and weeks. What a ride, another season done for the Roundel. I’ve lost count how many we’re on now.
Anyway, Alexia, play Sam Fender & Olivia Dean — Rein Me In.
As always,
