Happy St Angell's Day

[Yorkshire Blue]

Twenty-two years ago today Stanley rampages down the leftwing, lifts the ball over Steve Potts and centres for Brettie Angell to smash home off the underside of the bar.

Establishing once and for all that there's only one team in Essex.

Paul Smith also smacks one against the bar and a young Simon Royce, playing only his second ever match, flashes the brilliance we'd come to know and love.

I can't find the match on youtube, so you'll have to make do with another 1-0 win over the Scum instead

Less joyously, 2 years ago today Mohsni is lost in central midfield, Corr is wasted on the bench and Paul Sturrock was in the stands in a kilt.

It was 1913 before that. 2 wins from 18 - not bad for a small club.

Only as good as your last game though - 2-0 defeat in the Carling Cup.
