Fabulous to do the double over the Harriers in major matches, wonder when that last happened?
Another cracking cup tie, Kiddy where improved from the Fa Cup, although we started slowly after the first 15 minutes it was very much an even first half. The second half the wind was blowing a gale again at the Church End, two bad miskicks leading to a simple tap in for the opener, Green didn't have his best game today but has hardly put a foot wrong up to now. Kiddy dominated us for a while after that and 3 brilliant saves from Price and a couple of other chances they should have done better with. It looked like panning out like last week until the equaliser was forced home at the third attempt, brilliant save in the first instance, then crashed off the underside of the bar, then in the net before I could get out "it's one of them days again"!
The second goal in less than a minute was poorly defended and they faded after that, we wasted a couple of chances to finish it off, the red card looked spot on to me, although a fair bit away from it the kiddy penalty shout looked in with a chance, as did the second of the appeals we had in a few seconds in the first half, mind you we've won two big matches with this referee (Dover) so not too many complaints!
Some good performances from Scarr and Tonks again, and also the 3 players coming in Price, Knight and Billingham. Will be interesting if Price has a few games and does well if the reverse will happen - Solly struggling to get back in.
Well done to everybody concerned again, I have a feeling the last 32 goes nationwide, Dover at home or Eastleigh away then! they both won today.
