Happe scores on this video at 1 minute with a excellent headed goal that any top centre forward would be proud of scoring !! Also flashes of Ollie O'Neill showing better form, more like the player he was after joining Os last season. Onwards and upwards !

Have to say I was up out of my seat as soon as he got his head to the ball.

It was an excellent header well done DH good cross too.
I always prefer when James is playing, he contributes a lot to the team, be it his blocking or passing and shooting
His long throw is helpful too

Once we picked up the pace of the game we played very well,all the players contributed to a much needed win.For the first time yesterday I heard Beckles and Pratley guiding the younger players telling them what positions to adopt.The keeper by recent standards was excellent,did the easy things well and that allowed his confidence to grow.His distribution was very good and it made a lot of difference to the attacking play. Heard some poor old Rotherham supporter bemoaning the fact he wouldn't get home until 3 AM.

Shame the highlights don’t show Galbraith’s free kick. Thought it looked decent.

In other words, we badly need a centre forward. Not just about height den. Happe attacked the ball really well too.

Happe attacked the ball really well too. Excellent headed goal and actually picked his spot and guided the ball in so well. Any top centre forward would have been pleased at scoring a goal like that.

I think he may be suspended on Saturday after last night's booking ( that looked soft ) 🤔

Gives Richie a problem. No Clare so maybe Brown or Galbraith in the James role. Neither fill me with joy for different reasons. Galbraith is totally wasted there, Brown not good enough. Wouldn’t surprise me to see 3 centre backs with Galbraith and Currie taking on the wing back roles. But we go into the game unbeaten in one. Good time to get an unbeaten run going.

Any top centre forward would have been pleased at scoring a goal like that. He did. I’ve often wondered why Dan doesn’t get a few more goals when he is at corner kicks / free kicks. I’m sure you well remember back in the day Terry Mancini was very adept at getting his head on the ball in the opposition box and scored a good few goals too.👍
