DUNCES OF THE DAY..

To be fair, at the end of the day I`ve got to put my hand up and admit that today Snopper Street`s footy teams garnered just seven points from the nine on offer, thanks to my own team, the Saints, managing only a draw.   They made the long journey to Turf Moor where a determined Burnley side went ahead in a first half which they dominated.   It took an 80th minute equaliser from French midfield schemer Morgan Schneiderlin to salvage a point for the visitors but despite dropping two points, they remain top of the Championship thanks to close rivals Middlesbrough only managing a draw themselves.

In other news, the Addicks of Charlton played host to the Spireites of Chesterfield and emerged 3-1 winners to keep them firmly at the top of the League One table.   Charlton`s third game clinching goal came courtesy of a deft assist from our street`s icon Scott Wagstaff whose recent goal drought has denied his followers the aesthetically challenging vision that is his goal celebrating `brick.` 

Finally, but by no means least, the rampaging Gills secured yet another 3-1 home win against Paul Peschisolido`s Burton Albion to maintain their position in the promotion places.  But the dunces of the day must be the Saints. On another day, the host of gilt edged chances that came their way today would have been buried  but if you don`t take them, you can have no complaints at the end of the day.  To be fair.
