23 September 2006

A Town team missing three first-choice strikers in Isaiah Rankin, Gary Cohen and Luton's Michael Reddy looks predictably short of power up front in suffering the annual defeat to Stockport at Blundell Park this afternoon. Despite the momentum created by an ace early penalty save from Phil Barnes (awarded in error by Ray Lee, as anticipated by Cod Almighty's Refwatch earlier this week), the home side fail to capitalise on what little cohesive periods of attacking possession they can muster, and Keith Briggs' unstoppable 20-yarder 10 minutes before half time proves enough to hand the Hatters three points again. Ho hum.
