Quoted from Poojah


The likes of Sky Sports and BBC reported Alex Hunt having scored in the 51st minute, and showed the score as 0-1 for around 30 minutes. A fair bit of head scratching ensued for those not at the game.


I'm with Son Of Cod, there was no obvious thing that led to that (like a disallowed goal or whatever). Where I was stood somebody mentioned that the BBC were showing we had scored and everybody was a bit nonplussed by it.

Yeah, it seems as if someone from the Press Association spilled their coffee on their keyboard or something.

Think the victory seems even better now as Hunt, McAtee, Taylor and Sousa looked to be off their usual high standards. Woking obviously looked to stop the front players getting it into feet and I lost count of the times they nipped in front of a town player who was slightly on his heels to win possession. Dead balls weren’t great and pitch maybe a bit dry as plenty of passes seemed underhit, we just didn’t have any real fluency going forward. Massive win in the circumstances.

Wondering if Harry's been training as a left winger he certainly didn't seem out of place down that side of the pitch

I recall Jolley bringing him on as a winger when he first arrived and I felt really sorry seeing him being played out of position. However, he seems a different player now and seems to do a job anywhere, including full back

Really good highlights package and possibly a bit too balanced (if that's possible). I felt we were fortunate to go in at half time 0-0 and Woking were the better side in that half. If their finishing had been better it might have been a different story.

I thought Effiong was excellent in his work rate, his hold up play and making life very difficult for our defenders but his finishing leaves a bit to be desired.

Final word for Sousa. There is a passage of play where he loses the ball and puts Crookes (I think) under pressure. He follows his man into the penalty box but loses him and Woking get a good chance but Sousa keeps running and gets a foot in to stop the shot. Tremendous work rate when he could have given up on it in the middle of the park.

Woking look a really good side, but there's something gloriously non league about being sponsored by Boz's Fruit and Veg!

An absolute mystery what happened then. A goal came up on the vidiprinter (if you can still call it that these days) on Sky Sports News and it wasn't until a good 15-20 minutes later that it showed a score correction. Normally when something like that happens the score correction comes up within a minute or two, and usually there been a disallowed goal or a very near miss.

At least it all worked out well in the end.

Quoted from Poojah
Certainly the land of the giants at Woking, isn’t it. Didn’t look as crisp a performance as we’ve become accustomed to recently, but we appeared to defend well from the front. You’re not going to play well every week, so when you don’t the next best thing is to be resolute and clinical - I think that’s a fair description of that performance.

As for the footage itself, that’s as good a highlights package as you’re going to get at this level (and probably a couple of levels higher).

It occurred to me a couple of weeks ago, in these times of progression on and off the pitch, that we might be able to do a little more with the highlights now we seem to have this enforced 30+ hour embargo which affords more time to edit them. I’m not sure how feasible it would be to have a camera behind the goal as you’d lose seats in the Pontoon and the old scoreboard posts would obscure the view from the Osmond - I’ve no idea if they still serve a structural purpose to the stand or whether they could come down.

But there are easier options, such as GoPros in the goal nets, or even interspersing some of the footage from the match day moments videos. They’ve already given us some brilliant alternative angles of goals scored this season.

Now the highlights are on YouTube, they’re a lot more predisposed for sharing on social media. Making those highlights as compelling as possible can only help amplify all that’s going on at the good ship Blundell Park.

One for the club to look into I think, if they’re not already.


       Got it in one poojah. As you'll probably remember the TV companies built a scaffolded platform behind the goal in the inside of the pontoon, I wonder what the requirements would be in todays HSE world if we could do that again . It surely could stay up there all season with regular inspections, any scaffold companies prepared to donate some scaffold ?
