Game 8 - Hucknall Heroes
Striker #1 - Blake Superstar
14/08/07 - Hucknall vs Stalybridge
Final Score: Hucknall 4-1 Stalybridge
Hucknall: Blake Superstar (34, 49, pen 80, 90)
Stalybridge: Michael Stringfellow (78)
Player Watch: Blake Superstar needed a big score if he wanted to overtake leader Brendon Hedger this round, and a big score was exactly what he got. Superstar's mysterious change in form has baffled supporters and players alike, but Superstar claims he was suffering a slight bout of flu which was previously affecting his performances. Superstar struck four goals in a magical display for his side which helped them beat Stalybridge in comfortable circumstances.
Points Earned: 84
Striker #2 - Brendon Hedger
13/08/07 - Hucknall vs Burscough
Final Score: Hucknall 3-3 Burscough
Hucknall: Brendon Hedger (9, 54, 73)
Burscough: Allan Smart (60, 80), Dave Roberts (84)
Player Watch: If anybody wanted to catch the free-kick master Hedger, it was not going to be easy, as shown again today with Hedger scoring yet another hat-trick as his team managed only a draw against Burscough. Hedger was pure class, nailing a hat-trick and dominating play in general, and it was a well earned Man of the Match award that Hedger received after the game. The free-kick master has still elected to remain at Hucknall, claiming that it shouldn't be too long before teams like Manchester United and Liverpool recognise his talent and bring him in to their side.
Points Earned: 55
Striker #3 - Troy Lerana
14/08/07 - Hucknall vs Harrogate
Final Score: Hucknall 5-4 Harrogate
Hucknall: Troy Lerana (14, 30, 77), Paul Dempsey (17), Gary Ricketts (90)
Harrogate: Danny Holland (57, pen 85), Gary Sucharewycz own goal (60), Nathan Peat (80)
Player Watch: The Legend finally came to town, scoring a superb hat-trick in his side's thrilling 5-4 victory over Harrogate Town. The match should've been out of doubt after Hucknall led 3-0 at halftime, but somehow a brilliant 4 goal second half from Harrogate nearly gave them the 3 points. In the end, Hucknall relied on a late 91st minute goal from Gary Ricketts to seal the deal. Troy Lerana was excellent for Hucknall, earning MOTM awards after scoring a hat-trick to keep him going strongly on the leaderboard. Lerana fought tirelessly and deserved the honours.
Points Earned: 58
Striker #4 - Shantanu Ambekar
13/08/07 - Hucknall vs Harrogate
Final Score: Hucknall 0-1 Harrogate
Hucknall:
Harrogate: Mark Hume (3)
Player Watch: Shantanu Ambekar has an estimated 2-3 months remaining on his hip injury.
Points Earned: 0
Striker #5 - Avroneel Biswas
13/08/07 - Hucknall vs AFC Telford
Final Score: Hucknall 2-1 AFC Telford
Hucknall: Avroneel Biswas (53, 71)
AFC Telford: Matty Lewis (22)
Player Watch: In one of the more lower-scoring games we have seen so far throughout this competition, it was Biswas providing his team with victory after a brace after half-time in a superb comeback victory. Telford were looking all over Hucknall at half-time, but it was a brilliant fightback from the players and Biswas's superb finishing sealed it for his team. Biswas played very well in the second half and was rightfully Man of the Match for his efforts.
Points Earned: 37
Striker #6 - William Ako
13/08/07 - Hucknall vs Nuneaton
Final Score: Hucknall 1-1 Nuneaton
Hucknall: William Ako (23)
Nuneaton: Bradley Pritchard (31)
Player Watch: Wako Ako wasn't at his best today, and despite earning the Best on Ground honours, he still wouldn't be satisfied after scoring just one goal in his side's draw against Nuneaton. Hucknall went into the match as the underdogs, but in the end they still managed to scrape a draw which might not be considered a terrible result. William Ako was solid, scoring the first goal of the match, but he couldn't add to his tally throughout the remaining minutes which would've frustrated him and fans, as Nuneaton pulled one back to score the draw.
Points Earned: 27
Striker #7 - Stuart Cullington
13/08/07 - Southport vs Hucknall
Final Score: Southport 3-3 Hucknall
Southport: Neil Prince (22), Lucas Akins (60, 68)
Hucknall: Stuart Cullington (18, 90), Mick Galloway (63)
Player Watch: Culli was solid again, scoring a brace for his side including a crucial late goal which came in the 92nd minute to give his side a draw, but he couldn't find the elusive hat-trick to earn some more points. Before this round Culli was situated on the bottom, but now he definitely has a chance of moving up. Still, he needs some more big rounds if he wants to be a serious competitor in this challenge. However, considering Hucknall were away against big favourites Southport, a double from Culli and a draw was still an excellent result, it has to be said.
