Header worthy of Paul Groves.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

Quoted from Poojah
One minor constructive criticism in these times where feedback appears to be being taken on board, is that we appear to be missing some key opposition opportunities from the highlights.

The Eastleigh highlights omit the free header they had at the back post at 1-0, and there was that double block from Crookes (I think?) in front of goal in the Wrexham game. Whilst I’m naturally more interested in Town’s attacking highlights, I’d prefer to see a more balanced reflection of the game.


Not even the oppo chances, it seems bizarre not to include Harry cliftons first half headed chance in the highlights which was a great opportunity but isn't included I don't think.

I think we can put to bed that song "We Never Score From A Corner".

For this season at least.  


Yes, it's all down to the delivery from Hunt. He drills the ball, arrow like, with power, none of the floated balls or those that hit the first man.

Very difficult to defend against and the power is already there, just needs redirecting towards the goal, as Efete and Waterfall will testify.

Is it me, or does it sound like the commentator says something other than 'Fox' when he smashed it in?

Very Partridge-esque!

I assume that's down to Dale Ladson's replacement?

Both wonderful goals for different reasons. Great to see the Pontoon erupt with that second one, he really caught hold of it! Wild scenes.

The NL paper has a bonus for Town fans this week.  There is coverage of the Eastleigh win, and a 2 full page report on our great win over Wrexham.  The latter report has big headlines. 😃

I think it’s fair to say that all our goals this season, penalties aside, have been decent. We’ve not really had anything go in off anyone’s àrse or a goalkeeping howler yet.


Also, the fact that 9 players have scored, hence goals are popping in from all over the place, making the team more robust and less dependant on a "star" player.
