I think we’re doing the lad who scored a disservice, he was by far and away their best player and he scored an excellent goal in a game where they had 1, May be 2 chances.

Can't disagree, it's super critical to blame Crocombe, it was a brilliant finish, hard and low - albeit it was alot closer and wider than it looked from my seat in the main stand.

Cracking finish, from a cracking player. He looked like the only player on their team who might do something.
I was looking at the Northampton forum for their view of the game last night, and some people were saying they don’t think he’s good enough to start every game. I would happily take him here

Anyone criticising Crocombe for that goal is, frankly, deluded.

If Crocombe tries to cover the far post and gets beaten at his near post you say he shouldn't have left a gap. He gave their player the hardest choice of having to be hard and accurate to score at the far post. Unfortunately he was both, and he hit it early before Crocombe could set himself. Hats off for a brilliant finish rather than any criticism of Crocombe

I heard someone behind me say that Crocombe shouldn't be getting beat from that angle and thinking about it, he has a point. So you weren't the only one.

Great finish though, which I think took everyone by surprise as he hit it hard and early.


It may have taken Crocombe by surprise as well as everyone else.

Wasn’t there yesterday so going off the highlights, but looks like Crocombe got down really well to that effort in the first half. I think he’ll be a good asset this season.

It was a great hit. Credit to Hoskins, zero blame on Max.

This. It was indeed a superb piece of technique. Credit to the finisher, no blame on the keeper. I doubt many if any would have stopped that.

Mad scramble in their box, ball cleared Town player gets the ball and about to cross it when the ref notices one of their players rolling about in the area. He blows so he can be treated. Restarts the game by giving a drop ball to their keeper. Unbelievable


I wanted to check I was right to be fuming about it. Jan is a pro ref and gives the perfect answer but is doesn’t stop my ire. Ref simply got a massive call wrong and cheated us out of a chance for a winner.
