Top of the table clash. Tamworth occupying top spot. Much to everyone’s surprise, including own fans. Scunthorpe in second, who many expected to be in top spot. So what could possibly go wrong if you’re a Tamworth fan. Turns out absolutely nothing as they won the game 1-0 against 10 man Scunthorpe. In the lead up to the red card. Creaney elbowed Evans, seconds before Denton pulled his man back to stop him getting through one on one. We’d have all done the same in fairness, the pull back, not the elbow.
Anyway later in the game guess who manages to get the ball over the line, yes Dan Creaney. Let’s take nothing away though from Tamworth. They came with a game plan and executed it. It wasn’t a great performance all told from Scunthorpe. Over 5000 in attendance and once again, couldn’t perform in front of a large crowd. Too slow and methodical. The lack of urgency and what many have said strange substitutions at the time.
Now I’ve calmed down and looked at the bigger picture. All is not lost, still plenty to play for. So let’s keep heads up and hopefully you’ll be at the ground Saturday, getting behind them. It’s not just the team that need your support on the pitch. It’s also the team off the pitch that need it too. Bills still need paying and debts still need clearing. This club needs the community and the community needs the club. We’re in it together, never forget that. #UTI
*cheers Jack L for the other angle of the goal.
