Cheers to Crusaders FC the flamboyant champions of the NIPL



Congratulations are in place for a job well done and a repeat of achieving another shield of the 2016 Danske Bank Premiership, for the Boys of central Belfast Crusaders FC.

Once again, the natives from Seaview are lifting the cup proudly under the wise guidance of one of their longest man at their helm, Manager Stephen Baxter.

Who has delivered a whole array of shields since his arrival at this club top spot. Alongside of showing off an impressive collection of shields in two NIPL shields, Irish Cup, Setanta Cup, Irish League Cup and a County Antrim Shield.

So far, the work at this club helm by their Boss considered as a very impressive one and for the records of these club annals and successes contributions since his arrival in 2005!

As one of its mottos states “Keep the Faith”, this club has become a force not mess with, after their match in Seaview against a resilient Coleraine, the Hatchetmen made it 1-0 win.  

Sealing the deal with an eight-point lead over their cross town rivals the Linfield Blues and sealing the deal by wrapping the NIPL shield with black and red ribbons already in place for the joyous celebrations at the end.

Still challenges many challenges are for this Crusaders squad looking forward to make an impacting run in the upcoming Champions League eliminations rounds and seeking a possible spot in the always coveted and disputed final spots of this event group stage.

This squad has come a long way and really has shown a lot of character and determination, with this campaign latest achievement. 

The Crues overall feeling after seeing their efforts rewarded with back-to-back Gibson Cups, with last campaign winning their first cup, after an eighteen-year drought and this campaign again renewing their efforts once again with another shield.

With “A Little Respect”, this is another of the club motto that states this club hard fought pride and respect.

The newly crowned champions will close their campaign against Glentoran in the Oval, putting an end to this edition of the NIPL on a high and melodious note. 

Once again, I applaud the back-to-back feats by the Crusaders FC and in today match playing like true champions and netting an important win over a decimated Coleraine. 

Celebrating proudly another chapter and triumph this club long and glorious history.
