It was left to a defender to equalise for us, Blatherwick popped up with his fourth of the season from another set piece that we only appear to score from and we thought we'd nicked a point and rescued Wednesday but oh no that Man Mountain Steve Fletcher scores a bullet header and pinches an undeserved win. A point would have been fair I think after all we did create many chances against a good side. Bournemouth came to Saltergate on a bit of a roll and they were a very good football side and they will be close if not in the playoffs at the end of the season.
Two things have got my goat though after and during saturday's game. Point One is Adam Smith is a Diver, he try's to cheat his way into gaining an advantage for the Spireites. Now I'm no saint but I cringed on saturday, Why didn't the referee book him as it was a blatent dive, instead Adam made himself look foolish.
Point Two, Defenders score goals. Here's an interesting stat for you:-
Alex Bailey 1 goal
Steve Blatherwick 4 goals
Aaron Downes 2 goals
Ian Evatt 3 goals
Shane Nicholson 7 goals
Total: 17 Goals all from defenders
Strikers:
Tcham N'Toya 7 goals
Wayne Allison 6 goals
Caleb Folan 6 goals
Mark Debolla 3 goals
Total: 23 goals from our strikers
So 6 goals seperate our strikers from our defenders, can you see where the problem lies..............answers on a postcard!
