You can’t beat a good start to a match day. A little bit of attention for the TLF barnet, some successful retail therapy and a quiet lunch at the Courtyard Cafe. All followed by a couple of pre-match beers, some good chat and a golden goal ticket from Trevor. The 66th minute is not renowned for being a winner but it’s the thought that counts and you’ve got to be in it to win it.
Unlike St Albans who slumped to a disappointing defeat against Braintree, with dare I say it, an insipid performance.
TLF stomped home with a classy kebab dinner for Mr TLF. And then the doubt set in. Did that golden goal ticket get checked? No; so busy was TLF being VERY grumpy about conceding.
A rapid social media check. The goal was scored in the 65th minute. A weirdly relieved TLF; it would normally have been a huge disappointment – 1 minute out. But winning and not claiming the spoils and getting to bask in the golden goal glory; that would have been worse.
Every cloud and all that.
Small consolation Fox
