This was later followed by at text at 10.39 to tell me he was at \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Esher\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, despite me being unable to answer given I would have been 10 minutes into the game.<\/p>\n<p>However, far and away the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153winner\u00e2\u20ac\u009d was Nick Milne with an astonishing 10 votes! With the game poised on a knife edge at 2-2 and with 5 minutes to go, Nick was 30 yards out and closing down on the opposition keeper. Typically the keeper tried one of his \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Rene Higuita\u00e2\u20ac\u009d moves, only to be dispossessed by the onrushing Milne.<\/p>\n<p>Nick was then clear through on goal, with no one around to challenge him &#8211; cue 9 loud cheers, hand pumps and returning goalkeeper Blaney popped off 2 rounds from this Colt .45.<\/p>\n<p>Then the rattle! With the ball looping up and out of play, following a thumping against the crossbar.<\/p>\n<p>For the remainder of the game and most of the post-match, Albion\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s own \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Rain Man\u00e2\u20ac\u009d was heard repeatedly saying \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Uh-oh!
