Bantams 4 Grecians 1

Happy Days!! After the second half destruction of Exeter City, we find ourselves perched at the top of League Two. After the first 45 minutes however, this looked an unlikely outcome. City seemed sluggish, and against a team that set out it's stall to defend from the off, it was pretty grim stuff. The passing was wayward, and nobody seemed willing to pick up the pace. After hitting the crossbar when it looked easier to score, Exeter took the lad after a defensive cock up by Clarke. "Thats rubbish!" yelled the Helmet, "You are defending like a League Two team!" It was swiftly pointed out to him, by myself, that we are actually a league two team. The Buffoon. Anyway, Stuart must have put a rocket up 'em at half time, as Clobeck and Daley came out and began to give the Grecian rearguard a roasting down the wings. With their defence finally getting stretched, Thornie and Boulding were finding space, and our leading goal scorer equalised from an Arniston cross. The next twenty minutes or so where probably the finest I've seen down at Valley Parade in the last five seasons. Colbeck was playing as well as I've seen, but Omar was without a doubt the star turn. Boulding put us in front, and then Thorne scuffed in a third, but the best goal was the last. A blistering run by Omar down the flank, and great pass to Boulding, who picked his spot from the edge of the box. Job done. Brilliant. Can't wait for the Bournemouth game next week.

Pie/Guest Rating- This week, because we are at home, and I have tried everything pastry encrusted, I thought I'd get Tony Helmet to give his verdict on the Steak and Kidney pie that was reviewed last week. He reckoned it was on a par with the offering at Macclesfield, and commented on how good the pastry was, and was well impressed with the gravy and meat filling. He gave it a whopping 8/10. I , on the other hand, was assaulted by mine, being left with a blistered lip, due to the atomic temperature it was served at. I do concur with the Tony H that this is by far the best option at City's ground, but have marked it down for disfiguring my beautiful lush lips. 7/10. By the way, does anyone know where you can buy Hammonds Chop sauce? It's Chop-tastic!

Baz Watch- You have to feel for our testosterone fuelled legend. With the front two playing this well, his keister is going to be doing plenty of splinter gathering. I've even had to relegate "Baz Watch" to second billing behind "Pie Rating" as the savouries are seeing more action. With the game won, he was given a fifteen minute or so run out, and you can see he is desperate impress. Probably a little to desperate. An example would be his salmon like leap for cross. He jumped far to early, and when he realised, fouled himself in mid-air to land in a heap on the deck. It was not an edifying spectacle. Calm it down Baz, use the force... 5/10.
