I think we should also remember that May will have been rusty having just come back from a couple of months' layoff.
Hound,where at and when?
Hound, I have looked back and he missed at Grimsby, he has scored two out of three in shoot outs this season, but they do not count as goals scored in first team games. Goals scored in open play do count to a players first team record.
The service from midfield had dried up, he was told to stay on the half way line,and we defended much deeper on the edge of our box. He had no service nor did Marquis in the last quarter, with tired players and a disrupted mid field, thats where we lost the goal,in mid field. He was inside Rowe in the clear when Rowe got brought down for the goal free kick, that would have been his moment, thankfully we scored anyway and a good well worked goal at that.
BSTI've already said that perhaps May made the wrong decision and should have hit it low, even though his effort was still on target and required a good save from the keeper. But to say that any of our other first-team strikers would have buried it is a bit far fetched. I'm not even sure any of them would have created a shooting position from it. Selby I for one wouldn't have accused Mandeville or Williams of missing a sitter in that situation because it wasn't a sitter. We're not all like Billy.
