MOTTRAM GOES GOAL CRAZY
FRANK Mottram led the spree as Saints' makeshift line-up sunk struggling Ferry with an eight goal barrage. The striker netted five times to spearhead a landslide victory as the relegated hosts bowed out of the League in miserable fashion. Despite missing the Whelan twins and Abercrombie on British Universities' duty, Saints made a flying start. Ferry's generous defending allowed Ian Evans to fire home from the edge of the box after just five minutes and Paul Bowyer scrambled a second two minutes later on his full first team debut. Mottram then took centre stage, opening his account with a powerful 30-yard strike, before Shane D'Cotta replied. Hopes of a revival were soon swept away as Mottram completed a first-half hat-trick and scored twice more within four minutes of the re-start. Saints completed their highest-ever League win when debutant substitute Damien Currier turned in Ian Bishop's shot. |
