I don't want to put the "moccas" on him but Toddy must be the best penalty taker we've ever had, including Lutel. Blasted every time high into the net like they all should be, even though today's was so perfect I thought when he hit it he might have put it wide. I know he has missed one, but even Shearer wasn't infallible.
I thought today we were hampered by a lousy bone-hard pitch and actually thought we played more controlled football at Hartlepool, although we did get going against the 10 men in the second half. Cav is now playing better than I've ever seen him and Coley has a genuine selection headache for the full back places. Sorry, but I'm still not convinced by Doherty, in spite of his goal and assist for Mullin. With Whalley surely available next week, plus Browny and McGivern pushing hard for a start we can be confident of keeping the good run going and avoiding any last match nervousness. Don't think Coley will have any complaints about today's ref?
