minutes stoppage-time but Wednesday clearly didn’t. As the whistle went there was great applause from our fans.
When we kicked off again, we hadn’t made any changes and I hoped we’d go for more goals. Wednesday were looking keener to the ball at first but we nearly had a fourth five minutes in when a good dribble and cross from Gooch on the left was headed goalwards by Stewart but the goalie made a good block. Two minutes later we conceded a corner and immediately another but we managed to relieve the pressure while our fans were in great voice. Gooch went down in their box, rather easily I have to say, and he was ticked off by the ref for mouthing off about it. Shortly before the hour-mark Stewart got his third and our fourth when he got on the end of a long cross from Wright on the right and powered a header into the net. Anyone for six? Not long afterwards Pritchard went off to a standing ovation as Cirkin came on to replace him.
The Owls fans had gone well quiet and our fans chanted, “We’d forgot that you were here” followed by the obligatory, “Your support is fuckin’ shit.” We continued to have a go and I felt another goal coming. There was a bit of handbags that resulted in Embleton and Bannan being booked. Wednesday were still making the odd dangerous foray but we were coping at the back. Kimpioka replaced Neil with twenty mutes to go and received a chant of, “If Benjy scores, we’re on the pitch!” Well, we never did get round to doing that for Josie Altidore. We didn’t have to wait
