Addison Parks’ poor field condition was the most memorable aspect of a game that vaguely resembled football as the disappointed league leaders dragged themselves away from the picturesque hilltop town with only a point to show.
The rainy season made a perfect mess of a surface that was never ever going to lend itself to a good game of football because of its unevenly prepared nature based on a muddy texture of clay highlighted by a unplayable cricket pitch smack dab in the middle of it.
The newly upgraded complex was pleasantly beautified by the wide range of people that assembled keen on enjoying their new found Premier League status while crowding the hills above the grounds they shouted, danced and cheered gleefully at every half chance imaginable but unfortunately the attackers did not possess the ability to score.
Harbour View played without enthusiasm in trying to contain them, stayed out of trouble and sort to score occassionally while avoiding injuries. Those efforts goalwards was handled most times on the second attempt by the custodian who relished the damp conditions.
With 20 points we still lead the League with a game in hand against Reno rescheduled for next Tuesday November 4th at Reno, closely followed by Waterhouse and Portmore United (formerly Hazard) on 19 points, Tivoli Gardens on 18 and Village United on 16 points round of the top five places. The final round of games will take place this Sunday.
