GREAT WHITE SHARKS 0 BIRMINGHAM FCE 8 (walkover)
FRIENDLY - GREAT WHITE SHARKS 7 UNDER ESTIMATED 10
THE season ended in the most disappointing way possible with the Sharks for the first time ever being unable to field a team and having to concede a game on a walkover.
Only Dee, Janelle and Hameeda turned up, so GWS could not fulfill their league game.
There was a friendly against Under Estimated, where a Sharks team was boosted by two other unnamed players, and the final score was 10-7 to champions UE.
I don't know the rest of the scores as Birmingham Futsal Arena appear to have removed any reference to the women's league already - why is anyone's guess.
I think the Sharks probably finished fourth or fifth but in the end it's irrelevant as the whole season has been a farce.
Sharks have not won a single game legitimately all season but because of their loyalty and the poor attendance record of other teams they have picked up enough 8-0 walkovers to stay up.
As far as I am concerned this is the end of the Sharks.
Whether the team carries on is not up to me, but I will not be continuing with this blog.
The team should have folded last season and gone out on a high after winning the Championship.
Our record scorer Vicky decided to take a season out and so should the team. They were always going to struggle at the higher level without a goalscorer like Vicky but they decided to carry on.
The results this season speak for themselves.
The league is, in my opinion, awful. The best team, Under Estimated, are also extremely loyal and deserved to be champions, but most of the other teams have pulled out of so many matches it has made the league a total joke.
If the Arena had any dignity they would wind it up, but of course they don't want to lose money so they continue to flog a dead horse.
Personally, I feel some of the Sharks have lacked commitment this season and we've all seen what's happened due to this.
I am not prepared to continue supporting a team which has been wonderful in the past, but has crumbled away in recent times through the apathy of some.
I've loved nearly every moment of covering the Sharks and my only regret is we didn't call it a day at the end of last season on a high note.
Best wishes and best of luck to all.
