[eufckev]

Well, it's still money at the end of the day. Every little helps.

[Alan W (GNFC)]

If you're quick, the goals from last night are on the ITV Local News West Country ITV Local News - Saturday Its there until the Sunday News replaces it apparently. Certainly a good header from Akinde & goodness knows what made the Exeter player concede the penalty, other than the "we dont want this cup bothering us" syndrome!

The clip is just over 3 minutes in incidentally.

[Jeff]

Nice one Alan.

 

Looked like a handball to me.

[Alan W (GNFC)]

It was - I actually meant I dont know why he decided to stick his hand up when there was no real danger there.

 

It was also a great header back from Bostwick incidentally for Luke's equaliser.

[Hempstead Gaz]

Top goal by Akinde. Big leap, powerful header.

Shirly he must be due a start soon, considering the poor form that Chukki and Nade appear to be in.

[Hirsty]

....now that is the £35 question CG !!!

 

Cheers,

[Jeff]

Like it Hirsty.

 

Personally, I would play him with Chukki.
