kdncfc 27 Posted January 8, 2011 How did that little squirt Jimmy Smith beat our big strapping defenders to head the winner? Were they dozing or was it just exceptionally good movement by Smith? Couldn''t really see cos I was the other end of the ground. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boyo 0 Posted January 8, 2011 I was at the other end too but I saw it on one of the tv''s at halftime and after that player beat K.Smith really easily Jimmy Smith pulled away and whoever was marking him (I think it was Barnett) didn''t react quick enough and Jimmy Smith had a free header. It was a good goal and the movement was good but Barnett could have done better in trying to stop it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He''s still young and will improve I''m sure, but it speaks volumes that our only clean sheet in 12 (I think) games was against league leaders and free-scoring QPR with Nelson and Whitbread in the middle...
