After seeing the miss on youtube, I wouldn't lay the blame at Lenny's door for the miss.

All those moaning about Lenny would have been the same people who used to moan at Livvo because he didn't score enough. As strikers there is more to a team game than just putting just scoring.


I can’t remember Lester scoring more than ten a season but he did a lot more than score

Having seen the miss if anyone is to blame it has to be JM . Although if it had come off everyone would of been purring about a wonderful team goal. Slagging LJL off is about as boring as slagging Macca off

To say he hasn’t played for a long period of time he’s done really well.
I think of a lot of teams at this level would snap him up.

Seeing it again I didn't realise McAtee had so much space and all the time in the world to slam it past the keeper so I suppose Lennie was not expecting the pass at all. It was a bad miss, but not quite as bad given those circumstances. At 1-0, McAtee has to score there.

These are just observations, as I am absolutely made up with this team who are fast becoming one of my favourite Town sides, even allowing for the fact they are in the National League.

Yeovil were much better than anticipated and gave us a good test which we overcame.

Hurst agrees with you in his post match interview. And adds that it was not a good enough pass.

But then some of the posters on here think they know more about football than Hurst.........

He scored the penalty, was involved in the second goal and but for a great save from their keeper could have had an assist for Clifton.

He is LJL, trying to compare him to anyone else is pointless.

Anyone who thinks that was a ‘tap in’ is just plain stupid.

It took great awareness and athleticism to get into that position, and it was a bad pass from McAtee who should have buried it anyway.

So if you really must slag off our players, you should be having a go at McAtee who, by the way, has missed more penalties than Lenny this season.

Alternatively you could support the players who have taken us to the top of the league.

What I got from Hursts post match interview was that he felt it necessary to big up Lenny and take Macatee down a notch.Will be interesting to see how they fair as a partnership going forward as we need it to work for the next two games at least .Mcatee excellent as he is has greatly benefited from playing with Taylor.

Great movement by both LJL and McAtee to create the opening. I don't think there was anything wrong with the pass, just Lenny was a tiny bit on his heels. Lenny will know he should have done better, both with his anticipation and execution. Understand people being over-protective of  LJL completely due to his honesty and workrate, but I can't believe people think we should be spurning chances like that. McAtee's awareness was just better in that situation.. You ask Lenny himself, he'll be beating himself up about it, and most probably rightly so..As a forward you dream of chances like that.. whatever level..

Got a sneaky feeling that Hurst may play Bapaga, Sousa and McAtee in a front three on Tuesday night, like he did against Bromley. Just a hunch..
