Pretty sad to see the state that Northern are in . If you look at their history in the Chatham Cup - 2 wins and 8 finals , admittedly the last one in the early 60's - they were obviously a great force at one stage. Clubs do go in cycles but they seem to have been on the decline for a number of years
Pretty sad alright. When I was a student in Dunedin I enjoyed playing for Northern / North End United. There were good quality players and coaches (mid 70s).
