Diary - Sunday 13 March 2005

13 March 2005

Not having made it to yesterday's 1-1 draw at Boston, the Diary is beginning Sunday by attempting to extract the match's salient points from the internet media coverage that has emerged thus far. My findings are: (i) inevitable Daryl Clare goal after 20 seconds; (ii) possibly inevitable second-half equaliser by Prince Harrold; (iii) Terry Fleming subbed off before he could get sent off; (iv) very rubbish attendance for a supposed local derby, but a lot of Town fans there; (v) inevitably rubbish quality of playing surface; (vi) unloveable Steve Evans inevitably begrudging the Mariners' worthiness of a point; (vii) Town now in 11th place: their highest league position since the 1-0 win at Northampton in early October briefly propelled them into the top ten.

It seems to be a very bright and sunny morning, and perhaps birthday boy Mark Stilton is right and the season really does begin in March.
