All hail the mighty double winners!
…and I’m not talking about any of your Manchester Uniteds, Inter Milans or Barcelonas.
There is only one team in town and that is the mighty Guernsey FC. Seriously now, well done to the team. To win the Combined Counties League Division 1 at the first time is a fantastic achievement, especially as the team were only established in 2011. But further to this the lads have won the Combine Counties Premier Challenge Cup which involved beating teams from the league above. And the manner of the victories were fantastic, over 100 goals scored!
I also think it was a wonderful way to answer all those critics who thought that forming Guernsey FC would destroy local football. For our league teams to beat Jersey league teams then our national team to be Jersey in the Muratti shows that Guernsey FC is only good for local football. Well lets hope it continues that way!
