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.


Far east betting scam I reckon, hack the system, update a fictitious first scorer , cash the bet in before its corrected.

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.


I thought the same.

I thought he sounded a lot like the Geordie bits from Paul Whitehouse’s Julio Geordio sketch from the nineties. I honestly don’t think I could listen to that every week.

Just watched the highlights. That’s a game we would have definitely lost in days gone by.

One of those grind it out games, where you aren’t able to dominate. You probably say looking at the highlights, that on the balance of play, Woking actually carved open 6 clear cut chances, compared to 3 for us. But we’ve stuck in there and ground it out. A little bit of Lady Luck shone us I suppose with some of those misses from Woking. Especially the free header that didn’t hit the target. When you are in the doldrums, like we have been before, you never seem to get those bits of luck that fall your way.

Definitely a game that we would have come away with nothing in the past. So, very positive for me.

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.


I agree about that block by Sousa - was great to see a wide player track back to amend for his mistake.  Epitomises the team spirit.

McKeown rather fortunate I'd say as well. If Effiong had gone down in the box in the first half it would certainly have given the ref a decision to make. Well done to him for not going over like a lot of players would have done.

Don't think we had a keeper on the bench did we so it would have meant playing a lot of the game with probably Shaun Pearson in goal.

Effiong had been going down lack a sack of spuds every 2 seconds up until his booking, which I thought was harsh on him this time as Waterfall ran straight into him. I'm guessing that if Effiong hadn't already have been on a yellow he would have gone for the pen.

It would obviously have been problematic if Effiong had gone down and won a pen, but Macca wouldn’t have been sent off due to the double jeopardy rule. Same reason the Dover keeper wasn’t sent off for bringing Bapaga down a week or so ago.

If anything, I think the rule helps justify not having a keeper on the bench as you’re only going to lose your keeper through injury, violent conduct or an incident outside the box - all of which are fairly rare.

Wow, the Woking PA system sounds good Jason!!!










'I walked in the dressing room. The window was open and I thought that a sea fret had got in. Then I saw smoke billowing from a pipe in the corner of the room...it was my centre-forward. He looked seven stone wet through. He went on to score thirty-odd goals that season.' Lawrie McMenemy on encountering the legend that was Matt Tees.
