F.A.B. Virgil
Billel Mohsni. Welcome back.
Who to drop if Sampson 'has to start'?
Nothing to do with offside! They were moaning, saying that it came off a Southend player and should have been their throw and the ref got it wrong by giving it to us. Gilbo took it quickly, threw it to Sampson, who took it down the wing and cut it back for Dicko to finish. One of their fans who texted in said we shouldn't have been allowed to take the quick throw :-/
It's rarely as good as it was today. A miserable half-time, followed by the best half of football I can remember in years. Yes, Northampton had chances, but you never felt that they'd stay in front for long. Oh, and as for our 'hoofball' problem, take a trip to Sixfields. Don't pay to get in, as you'll see most of their play from the top of that hill.
So many positives...Moshni, well, he can have my babies (my lady wife is in agreement).
Great performances all over the park. As mentioned above, Sampson looks the real deal, and Martin and Benyon will be a handful when fully fit. Brilliant save from Morris, although Sturrock's insistence on not having a keeper on the bench makes me nervous. I won't do ratings because, like all of us, I can't watch eleven players all at once and rate them accurately. Besides, I enjoy reading everyone else's vastly differing, often brilliantly eccentric scores and then complaining about them. Fill yer boots!
A special mention for Peter Gilbert, who I like, and who had a good game. Don't forget how great our defence was earlier in the season, and he's been a constant. He'll have enjoyed stuffing the Cobblers, too.
What fun.

Mohsni did play a couple of seasons in France as a goalkeeper... :unsure:
I prefer Bilel Mohsni, a much better player.
