Defeat in Patriot games is title setback

30 March 1997, Division Six at Mannington

KMLC FC 1 Patriots Arms 3

With a first honour in reach the Kylies slipped up at home to the Patriots Arms. The team had a habit of struggling against teams they shouldn't and the opponents were completing the double with this result.

The game at Chiseldon in November ended in a 4-3 defeat that preceded the nine game winning run This time Gunning got the only goal in a more comprehensive defeat that meant the title was no longer in their own hands.
