He definitely dived for it, but was caught/nudged by our farmhand in the tackle. Either way could be right/wrong - I thought we were very fortunate to get away with it tbh, and it might have made for a better game had they taken the lead? Or not?
For me, a very dull game, with our second stringers having even less nous around the box than the first xi. Feel for Joseph - he’s no Alan Smith, but a bigger issue is he’s not even Tommy Wright or Aiden Butterworth - he never looks like he’ll score? Given Gnonto’s one-trick approach, we either need to stick him at no 9 for a few games, or re-introduce him to the bench? > On 12 Jan 2025, at 18:08, Nicholas Armit via Leedslist <[email protected]> > wrote: > > On TV he literally launched himself in the air as soon as he got in the > box.
