Can you tell the difference between just a bit of post-match stiffness and the actual pain you had in your back though? Is it any better?

Been talking to the guy who plays for Kennet and apparently they were all saying afterwards that all we do is give it to Dave Lewis for him to win the game. Slightly sour grapes I feel, as if that is the case why didn't they just stick their entire defence onto Dave, thereby automatically winning the game? Also, if they don't realise that giving the ball to your strikers is a key element of scoring goals, which in turn is a key element of winning a match, they shouldn't really be playing footy in the first place. Finally, both of our strikers scored goals, whereas none of the 5 strikers they played throughout the 90 minutes scored at all. You can't have a go at us for having good strikers who score goals.

They had enough warnings of Dave's ability to outpace their slightly aging and lost-for-speed centre-back and they didn't react to it. Foolishness and strictly non-football genius.
