Re: Daniel idiakhoa
Both Daniel and Arnold scored for AFC yesterday. Anyone needing a footie fix when they can't get to a Hitchin match would find a visit to Creasey Park a good choice. Goals there are scored at both ends.......................... Such a shame that Daniel will be remembered by the fans for letting the ...

A query on our social media showing a picture of Biggleswade Town's team of about 1951 surprised me, as perhaps the only HTFC connections in the picture were of our ex trainer George Oldham, and Canary's legend Ken Lawrence.
