News Flash 3 points earned for Cottage Celtic against League Leaders on a Dark Evening for DCT UTD.
Not Even Sherlock Holmes himself would be able to put a stop to Mr Moriarty as he navigates his ship full of super ballers up the divison 1 river towards the top end of the stream.
Theres points still to play for this season and with the upcoming budget its a fact that dropping points could be costly for the oppositon and it might be just the kind of result this hardly contested division needed as we move into the business end of the season.
Speaking of business, what business did a certain Mr Dessie Leonard have coming on for only a half and putting the game beyond reach of DCT. The man who has played a part in many a memorable moment in the cottage colours did it again tonight notching up a brace of goals in the second half to add to the finishes by the front man Moo who loves nothing better than finding the back of the net and arguably the find of the season Nailor who continued his excellent rein of good performances with a tasty finish mid way through the first half .
As ususal the cottage had to dig in and struggle against the 12th man , he with the whistle , but recent weeks and calm heads helped them see it through as they gathered up there victory there points and there confidence just in time for a massive semi final on the horizon next week.
A late consolation by DCT and a bit of a draining extra 9 minutes did nothing for the tired legs on both sides, 99 minutes on a thursday in difficult condition , its likely the squad well be over joyed with the weekend to spend time catching up with there friends and family or enjoying a tasty tipple at the Cottage Inn .
Who Knows what lies ahead ?
