Mixed fortunes - Ups and downs in an unpredictable season
Newter Albion's 11th season in the sixth division was a rollercoaster of emotions, marked by moments of promise and inconsistency. Finishing in 6th place with 31 points, the team demonstrated resilience and attacking intent, scoring 46 goals while maintaining a solid defensive record with only 34 goals conceded. An interesting fun fact from this campaign is their positive goal difference of +12 — more goals scored than conceded — highlighting their attacking prowess and defensive stability at times. However, the season also featured a fair share of setbacks, with an equal number of wins and losses, making it a campaign of fluctuating fortunes.
