Would have been worth playing Perfect Day at the end of the game just to see Swin jump from his seat and shout...What? That was FAR from perfect, I counted at least 3 basic schoolboy errors at the back and Macca WTF?! Never mind that Save of the Season nonsense, that was utter madness from you for their equaliser..

before being handed a paper back to breathe into.

You don't think it was madness then?

Was it 'madness' or was it a single error of judgement? When Hooper missed the goal completely from a penalty a few weeks back, was that madness? Or just mis-judgement?

I will put the entire catalogue of the umpteen, dozens and dozens of chances spurred by our forward line over the course of the seaon way before Macca's one error as, unlike the strike force over the season he actually made amends for it twofold.

Quoted from Mrs Doyle
It was more significant.

We were already winning that game just running the clock down when Arnold scored at the death.

Matts goal we were drawing one all they scored totally against the run of play Barnet had scored so potentially we were looking at a horrible situation.

That he did score in the final seconds was sweet justice for our 90 minutes of commitment.


Yeah, that's what i meant. The Arnold goal was fantastic, but it didn't affect the result, just made it more certain. Matt's goal definitely won the game in the dying minutes and stopped us from going back to that hell hole, from which we may not have escaped for a long time.

As for the Macca mistake, even the best keepers make them, in much more high profile games than that one. He has saved us more points than he has lost us and is a significant part of us staying up.

Macca has shown he is Grimsby through and through ok he made an error of judgment but that breathtaking save earlier was top drawer. His form has been brilliant under Jolley penalty saves the lot.

Is Macca a former 100 Meters sprinter?? At 9:15 on the video he slides in from stage right, just how quickly did he cover the length of the pitch?

I remember at the time seeing him there and thinking how the F did he get there so fast?

The scenes of celebration of the goal are a joy to behold. It really shows what it meant to the players. It seems hard to believe that two months ago we though they couldn't give a stuff.

Just like the Arnold goal at Wembley I can watch Matt's goal again and again and again, and have done! And will do!

Still hard to believe it really happened the way it did. A 90th minute equaliser and a 93rd minute winner!

Who writes these scripts?
