Queen’s University came within touching distance of pulling off the greatest of great escapes but in the end they fell just short and were relegated from the Championship on Saturday.
The Students picked up just nine points in their first 23 league matches and were cut adrift at the foot of the standings for month, with a double-digit points gap to those sides above them.
A remarkable run began in mid-January that saw them pick up 21 points in 11 matches which, briefly, lifted them above Knockbreda on goal difference.
