John Stimpson Memorial Shield Final

Dorchester Town 0 AFC Stoneham 1

Goalscorer: Evans 86

Our young development squad won their 4th trophy of the season in a very good game with a pulsating finish. Both teams played good football throughout the night with our boys just possibly shading the chances created.

As the game was heading for penalties young Isaac Evans headed home a corner with only four minutes of normal time remaining.. Within two minutes Dorchester were awarded a penalty to the dismay of everyone in purple however keeper Ben Godwin pulled off a superb save going to his right and then claimed the rebound setting off delirious celebrations.

The boys saw out the last few minutes to record a huge triumph.

The way the game and season finished was "written in the stars" as the boys lifted a record breaking 4th trophy.

Words can never do justice to either the boys fantastic achievements this season or this final game. Just wonderful !!!!
