Trap is some manner of God.

Discuss.

andrews, cracker

**tricky_colour** · 07/06/2011, 7:24 PM

He's got a foot like a traction engine - seriously!!

**elroy** · 07/06/2011, 7:25 PM

Ha ha what a strike!! How slow were the defence in charging him down thou

We've actually looked quite composed so far. The usual, other team has all the possession but not causing us much grief.

**tricky_colour** · 07/06/2011, 7:26 PM

He seems to have a really hard shot, I noticed from some of the free kicks he has taken recently that he hits
the ball as hard as anyone I have seen, it really is a case of blink and you miss it!

**tetsujin1979** · 07/06/2011, 7:26 PM

Andrews had been trying that free kick routine in the last few games, delighted it came off for him!

**paul_oshea** · 07/06/2011, 7:26 PM

Mschane played him in lovely....

**theworm2345** · 07/06/2011, 7:26 PM

Nearly ****ed one away there

**the bear** · 07/06/2011, 7:28 PM

mcshane will never change

**BonnieShels** · 07/06/2011, 7:29 PM

Can't believe Mcshane there. Let's hope that's his 1!

**elroy** · 07/06/2011, 7:29 PM

**the bear** · 07/06/2011, 7:30 PM

I think perhaps the defence were well aware of how hard he can strike the ball, hence their reluctance to get in the way!!
