Members of Tivoli Gardens Football Club celebrate after defeating St Georges 2-0 to win the end of First Round title at the National Stadium last Sunday. - File
NO one expected the first round of the Digicel Premier League (DPL) to end on such a farcical note: a disallowed goal that really should have counted; an extremely debatable penalty; and a shout for another penalty that was disallowed, which really should have been given. A final that had been shaping up as a really hot battle, on the basis of the even finish by Kingston's Tivoli Gardens and St Georges Sports Club, thrust anguish upon the throng of Portland hopefuls backing their young premier league team which, coincidentally, found themselves on the receiving end of referee Raymond Bogle's dubious calls. Not surprisingly, they lost 0-2.
