205 seemed about right to me. Unfortunately we all had to endure what was an extremely poor quality game, both sides struggled to carve out any decent chances throughout the 90 minutes. Neither team deserved the three points, and on that showing, both teams will spend the season in the lower reaches of this division. South Park were time wasting from when they went ahead in the first half and I got the impression they were happy with a point. A very uninspiring afternoon.

My first visit to IF this year was purely to meet up with the lads from the 70s: https://www.tmu-fc.co.uk/db/playersearcher.php  and of course catch up with the few remaining old lags.  Sadly the fare on the pitch has not improved even slightly since last time (unlike the much missed curry goat from the SHAK), so I won't be rushing back!

I managed to ask Nicky Glover about the double sending off at Hitchin many years ago.  I was there but I didn't see the incident.

Anyway, Nicky wasn't happy as Jack Payne seemed to be pushing him out and he was on the bench for the Hitchin game.  Apparently Danny Clapton was getting a bit of grief from the bench throughout the game and I think Nicky was chipping in.

Later on Nicky was brought on.  He received a short pass from Clapton and returned the ball straight back.  But it seems as if Danny Clapton just let the ball run out of play on purpose.  There were words between the 2 and then a headbutt and then a couple of punches.  Obviously the rest of the team steamed in to break it up and Billy Smith told them both to shake hands as he realised that the ref hadn't seen anything.

But out of the corner of Nick's eye he saw the linesman flagging furiously and told Nicky " I saw everything..."

And that was that - 2 reds!  (Not sure if there were actually cards back then).
