Match Report
Written by Paul Hackett"After you Andy" ... nice but dim thing to say as Gary played "guess what I've got in my hand".
Bit difficult not to notice the key fob sticking out of his fist. That was it ... game over - lost on the toss.
You know your name 's not on the cup when, 1st minute, Chris does a bicycle kick from the corner flag , the ball just misses Tim Peake as he walks in space & it falls to Mark who meets it with a perfect volley into the corner past Laurie. One foot in the grave - chorus of "I don't believe it!"
Went to 3-0 but kept trying & Ally's 2 goals saw us so close to squaring it. A couple of cock-ups saw the yellows home.
But the real story was Richie voluntarily going in goal. Now we know why he doesn't. Pitiful the way he was nearly crying in the dressing room over his mingu-like (or was it Pingu-like) performance.
Andy had only himself to blame for destroying Richie's confidence. Whilst picking he says " shit, didn't mean to pick him - can I change it?" Guess who was the only person watching us.
Man of the Match has to go to Chris 3 goals & the cross of a lifetime.
