THE STRANGE result, Northampton 3 Hereford 4 on October 16 received little comment.

McKenzie recorded a firsthalf hat-trick to give Cobblers a 3-0 half-time lead.

They then conceded four goals.

Our much loved Brian Clough once scored a hattrick for Middlesbrough at the Valley, only to see Charlton get a 6-6 draw.

His comments on Boro’s defence were unprintable.

Did McKenzie say “It’s all in the game lads?”
