Huddersfield Town's Goodwin spurred on by jeers

JIM GOODWIN paved the way to a 2-0 win over Scunthorpe with his first Town goal then told jeering visiting fans: “You spurred me on.”

The former Glanford Park midfielder was barracked before and during yesterday’s clash by many of the 1,641 Scunthorpe contingent in a 15,228 Galpharm crowd.

He provided the perfect response with an influential engine-room display and the opening strike in the 65th minute.

The victory which kept Town 10th in League I was wrapped up five minutes into stoppage time when top scorer Gary Roberts slotted his eighth goal of the season as Danny Cadamarteri counter-attacked with every Scunthorpe player, including goalkeeper Joe Murphy, upfield.
