Just watched my end of season DVD and among the many things that stood out for me, the most prominent was what a class act Colin Little is but what a freakishly unlucky and frustrating season that must have been for him. The number of near-misses he has is incredible, culminating in that awful moment in the last game. I hope the reprieve has eased the pain of that now.
It gave me the real sense that last season just wasn't his season but that now we've got the reprieve and he's got another chance at Conf National level, 07-08 is going to be the opposite and he's going to score a hatful. Hope I'm right.
Don't think it was paid much attention at the time, understandably since it was in a game we lost comfortably, but his goal at Dagenham was absolutely superb - reminiscent of one of Le Tissier's great goals, at Blackburn I think.
We are very lucky to have as good a player as Colin Little at Alty.
