After watching the highlights did anyone think we could have had a penalty in the first half when Clifton, I think it was, looked like he was pushed in the back ??

Quoted from Davec
I seem to recall Inih Effiong playing as a trialist in a reserve match for us a few years ago, in the Bignot era I think it was.


Correct. Away at Rotherham. He was with a carload of Redditch players up for just one trial game. Thought Effiong and one other might have been invited back. Can't remember who we signed instead. His height alone caused problems but I don't recall if he was as good on the deck as Saturday.

Edit:- Just checked. This does not tally with his Wikipage. He was contracted with Biggleswade (32 apps) then Barrow season 2016-17 when Bignot reigned at Town but only made 7 appearances for Barrow. There were some Redditch players there at the Rotherham game but those of us watching may have jumped to conclusions. Anyway, he's moved around 21 clubs in 12 years mainly in the south so perhaps not likely to find N.E.Lincs. appealing.

Is Tony Gallimore still scaffolding locally?  


Galli works for Carrera Engineering - did some training for him and others pre Covid.

There was a claim which looked valid at the time and on the highlights.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

You and I may applaud him, but I'd imagine his manager will have had a word or two in his ear...


On the other side, he was using his arms and elbows too much at other times, so it evens things up a bit 😆

Anyone got a translation for the Woking manager's post match interview?

I've contracted with work nationwide,  and many local dialects speakers, but trying to understand him was hard work.

I THINK  he said that his strikers failed to score from good chances and that lost them the game.

There was a lot of pulling and pushing from both teams and I think the ref may have let a lot go because it was six of one and half a dozen of the other. I had a great view of the penalty box from where I was and Towler nearly pulled their number 6's shirt off at one corner. On the flip side, Taylor was constantly being held by the lad marking him.

There was a lot of good football played on Saturday but it was quite a physical battle as well, inevitably I suppose based on the size of some of the Woking players.


Miss Scunthorpe. Not a beauty pageant, just sound advice.

Great highlights what a fantastic win that was and the coverage on the radio probably did not do Woking justice. They were a bit more dangerous in that second half then I seem to recall from the radio

The Woking striker Effiong looked very useful… I wonder


so did their 17 .

In a results business we got the 3 points.  Job done, when key players not at their best or not allowed to play.

Love the deadpan commentator “final score Grimsby Town 1 Woking 0”.  He should be in Dracula films or play poker.
