I normally hate it when people say "it could've been 7 or 8", but it really could've been 7 or 8 for Leek last night.
Their goal was a result of our 'keeper blasting the ball into an attackers back, resulting in the ball looping into the net.
After that we had 3 ruled out for offside, 2 clear penalties waved away, and another few against the post and bar in amongst a host of other chances.
It could've been "one of those nights" had we not remained disciplined, but even the most ardent Kidsgrove fan will tell you they barely got a touch.
I'm not sure if the extra rest for Boston will be a factor - I guess home advantage will kind of cancel that one out. But I'd see this very much as a potential banana skin for the Pilgrims coaching team to sort out, who quite rightly have been doing their homework and have been a fixture at Leek games in the last week or so.
They will have seen that Boston will have their work cut out on Saturday, and I can't wait!
