As history exhibits, football dynasties seldom last forever.
Incisive's shock 5-3 defeat to JTP two weeks previously could have sent the club into freefall, similar to the fates of Nottingham Forest, Leeds and more recently Liverpool.
Teams can be the best of their generation, however, events can quickly transpire to turn giants to become football has-been's.
In short, Incisive knew they had to win at all costs in the return fixture against JTP.
Both sides went into the game below strength. JTP had drawn the short straw having had the displeasure of a double-header on the same night.
Incisive were missing their player-manager, and architect of their "invincible" title winning season, Alex Lewis, who could only watch from the sideline in a rather fetching parka jacket. Some people will do anything for fashion.
Incisive, rarely moving out of first gear, were able to control the game with a superior level of passing, organisation and vision. JTP will be wishing for such ability this Christmas.
Whilst Incisive lacked much of their vintage qualities, they were able to conjure an array of chances and more importantly goals.
Brown was able to net four times on an evening he could have scored 7 or 8. However, his ability to trap the ball was clearly missing most of the time.
Cenamor offered much dynamism and was rewarded for his efforts with two well-taken goals.
Chris Finnegan, despite only getting on the score sheet once showed movement off the ball that allegedly created the goals for Cenamor and Co. CCTV from the Atlee Centre is being retrieved as evidence for this claim. As to are witness statements for Tjaardstra alleged abuse of innocent (black) bystanders after the game. If found guilty of any wrongdoing both players could be required to line up as tin soldiers at the next match for their team to fire footballs at.
Tjaardstra, who also allegedly slapped a cleaner at the weekend in a clubs toilet, and now looks set to marry Leona Lewis to appease London's black community, also managed to net two goals.
As ever Chad Gomez was dependable pulling off a number of top-class saves. Quite rightly, Gomez was critical of his teams defending, who were to blame for giving the JTP player the time to fire past the helpless keeper.
Making his belated debut, Ollie Hurrey finally joined the action with ten minutes to go. Glimpses of Hurrey's ability was visible, however, as the game was already sewn up his impact was limited on this occasion.
9-1 to Incisive was deservedly the final score. Perhaps this dynasty will flourish for a thousand years after all.
