A PROUD HISTORY
HOW THE TEAM MADE HISTORY IN 2006
It was the last 20mins of the very last game of the 2005/06 season, probably the most significant and dramatic in the Reading Leagues 16-year existence, the two leading teams were playing for the Championship on the Final day of the season.
The score at the time was 2-2,
in any other circumstances an outstanding result away to the title holders, a result, which would have meant local rivals Marlow United were going to win the league.
It would have meant they had retained the Senior Division crown for a second term and it would have condemed Cookham Dean to finishing second for the third year in succession.
As the drama unfolded however it was the Dean who showed the necessary qualities to win an action packed game. When Player of the Year Mark Doswell headed home the decisive winning goal it became probably the most important goal ever scored for Cookham.
It was a game and a finale which you dream of when you are a player and for everyone involved with the club it was a truely memorable achievement.
For both teams to have been contesting the Championship on the very last day of the Season in such a thrilling manner
was fantastic, yet the biggest winners of all were not just Cookham Dean, but also this fine level of local football
