Ignoring the special charms of the slow waltzing Straight Peter Bore, everyone else seemed to play all right in the end. Fenton and Atkinson seemed to cope well with the pace and thrust of The Others, and the new Sunshine Boys upfront were a mobile menace. Overall, simply for being everywhere and really trying hard forever, despite the things he can't do, Little Nick Hegggggarty gets a small bouquet thrown his way.

"I would have liked another couple of days after Tuesday and let all this Wembley thing settle down. Off the pitch it can't, because there is so much to be organised, but from the players' point of view I would have liked them to have had a couple of days' hard training and a bit of a breather. Tonight has come a bit too quick for us." Did you catch that, Fenty?

Mr D Deadman (Herts)
He spent 70 minutes being overly indulgent of their manhandling and semi-psychotic sentries, and the last 20 minutes penalising Town players for walking on the cracks of his imaginary pavement. This man and his suspicious hair are a menace to society. A coward who took the easy way out, it didn't take us long to find him out. A one-way ticket to the moon, without a spacesuit, would do just fine. He doesn't get any better; with age he rots, not rocks. He's useless: 3.122.

Saturday football is ace. Roll on 12 April.
