Sam Bell will quite rightly take a lot of the plaudits after his two brilliant goals and excellent display in the FA Cup fourth round victory over West Brom but Nailsea's finest, unbelievably, wasn’t my man of the match. That went to our Magnificent Seven.
I witnessed a performance from Alex Scott that belied his years and was one of the most impressive displays that I have seen from a Bristol City player in more than 45 years of watching the club.
Scott’s dribbling of the ball, his passing, his composure and his all-round play was simply sensational and quite rightly all sides of the ground rose as one to applaud him as he left the field on 86 minutes. Even a couple of the Baggies players shook his hand as he made his way off.
