What a wonderful story. To get back into the league after all those years, and to more than hold their own is a fantastic feat.
Top Manager. Superb Chairman. Great little ground (in an absolutely not meant to be condescending way).
I remember when we were in the Prem, and our kids (with Johann Cruyff's grandson.....I think) played their reserves in the Lancs Cup. A mate at work was a big Accy fan, so I went along with him. What a lovely night. We lost, (on penalties, 11-10 !!!) but what the hell.
I remember writing a match report on the game for the old TNS forum, saying at the time how much of a shame it is that we won't be playing them in the league anytime soon!
I hope the young lads can take heart not only from the victory last week, but also from their general performance, yes, from last week but also in the last few games. They've been improving all the time. Getting stronger. Fewer mistakes. Understanding each other.
Given our position, points are probably more important than performance, so I'd take a scrappy undeserved win right now. I'd also take another decent performance, with whatever result it brings. For me though, my heart's on my sleeve.......... , even in the Prem, I rarely see us losing going into a game.
2-0 Tics.
