Llandyrnog Summer League 2013 Unbeaten Run
15th April 2013 to 20th May 2013
It is with great sadness that I report that at around 9:00 tonight the Llandyrnog Summer League team unbeaten run, beloved by many, departed us. On a chilly and dark evening in the Pentre Motors owned village of Llanrhaeadr, surrounded by family and friends alike the Llandyrnog streak finally gave in.
Unfortunately falling victim to a nasty case of the own goal, the streak wasn't strong enough to battle through and when the matter was complicated further by a nicely finished breakaway goal deep in the second half, Llandyrnog's run just did not have the fight left in it to bounce back. There were brief signs of life when a stone-wall penalty appeared to revive the Cae Nanters but the on-call referee denied the appeals then subsequently pronounced the streak dead.
It will be sorely missed and fondly remembered by all who witnessed it and I think this is best summed up with a quote:-
"The hour of departure has arrived and we go our ways: I to die, and you to live. Which is better? Only God Knows." Greek Philosopher Socrates
or rather
"Fucking shit that!" An unnamed Llandyrnog fan
That is all I am really writing tonight, it's my blog and I can do what I want with it! Hopefully, normal service will resume on Thursday. In all honesty Llanrhaeadr were worthy winners tonight in a tight game with few chances. We weren't at the races and that happens at times, we'll be back to put this right.
Thanks for browsing
