Wortley AFC were left needing a miracle to go up this season as Glory Hornets' unpredictable form continued with a 2-1 win over the promotion hopefuls.
An injury crisis up front meant Wortley lacked punch, and the Hornets broke down their stubborn resistance with two Toma Popadic free kicks at either end of the first half.
However manager Greg Perkins was uncharacteristically dissatisfied as he looked to the future. "We're still not taking our chances on a regular basis," he stated earnestly, "and if this can't be sorted before next season, I'll be looking to bolster our attacking options. While Wortley didn't exactly lie down, we should have put that game to bed at some stage, but I was left fretting until the final whistle."
This new-look resolve creates concerns for struggling strike duo Malloy and North. Malloy has mustered just 3 goals this season, despite being second-top-scorer the season before, while North has failed to score in 11 outings this season. Perkins is presumably already eyeing the re-opening of the transfer window before next season gets underway.
