Coca Cola League Division One

Huddersfield Town 2-1 Walsall

Another late-late show from Michael Collins (a nice habit to have) gave Town all 3 points - deservedly in my opinion, after some outragous time-wasting from Walsall.

Town in front at half time thanks to a Gary Roberts penalty. Michael Collins surging run in the box ended abruptly by a shove in the back by Walsall defender Rhys Weston - the referee had no hesitation - and up stepped robbo to cooly slot the spot-kick home.

Walsalls equaliser was a beauty. Alex Nicholls shot from outside the area easily beating Alex Smithies (who was making his first league start in over 12 months) - it would have beaten Matt Glennon and most other goalies for that matter, that well was it placed.

Thanks to Walsalls time-wasting tactics it looked like a stalemate, until Dann Cadamateris header found Ian Craney who played the ball into Michael Collins and after drawing the keeper out of his goal made no mistake - joy and rapture abound!!!

Gerry Murphy and Michael Collins are both delighted naturally!
