Cambridge South, proudly sponsored by PwC, finished the season with a 5-2 defeat to fourth placed Market Deeping.

Market Deeping were the first to break the deadlock, scoring after about twelve minutes. They grabbed a second shortly after and looked in danger of running away with the match at this point.

The away side were able to hold Deeping at arm's length, however, and were right back in the game when Russell Johnson scored ten minutes before half time. A cross from the right wasn't effectively dealt with by the home defence and Russell was perfectly position to slide the ball into the corner beyond the despairing right foot of the keeper.

In the second half Market Deeping extended their lead to 3-1 before the away side again pulled themselves back into the game, this time through sweeper Chris Graveling. It was one of Cambridge's best moves of the game and involved some crisp interplay between the midfielders before the ball came across the D and to Chris, unmarked at the far post. His first time sweep shot flew into the far corner before the keeper even had a chance to move.

This defeat ended a four game winning streak for Cambridge, their best run this season, and meant that they finished in sixth place this year. This is the highest the club has finished for many years and captain Chris Baker was understandably delighted with his teams performance this season, saying "I am extremely proud of the entire squad for their effort and commitment throughout the season, which has resulted in a top half of the table finish".
