Millwall keeper makes one of the saves of the season - without using his hands

With team-mates like Mark Beevers, who needs opponents?

FootballFrkn14TV / YouTube

MILLWALL KEEPER JORDAN Archer produced a save of the season contender against Peterborough — with an inadvertent bit of help from one of his team-mates.

When Mark Beevers overhit a back-pass, Archer was caught out of position and had to scramble back to his line as the ball dropped.

Unable to use his hands, the keeper timed his jump perfectly and headed the ball out from the underneath the crossbar and behind for a corner.

Millwall went on to win 3-0, keeping them well in the hunt for the League One playoff places.

Cheltenham Town treat us to one of the all-time great free-kick routines

    The only reason he didn’t win was because he spent the first 3 days going in the wrong direction.

    North to Alaska/Johhny Horton
    Sam crossed the majestic mountains (mush)
    To the valleys far below (mush)
    He talked to his team of huskies (mush)
    As he mushed on through the snow (mush)
    With the northern lights a-runnin’ wild (mush)
    In the land of the midnight sun (mush)
    Yes, Sam McCord was a mighty man (mush)
    In the year of nineteen-one (mush)
    ………And so is Gavan Hannigan a Mighty Man too.Well done Gavan!

    There are strange things done in the midnight sun
    By the men who moil for gold;
    The Arctic trails have their secret tales
    That would make your blood run cold;
    The Northern Lights have seen queer sights,
    But the queerest they ever did see
    Was that night on the marge of Lake Lebarge
    I cremated Sam McGee.
    (Robert Service poem).

    @Pat Gorman…….
    The Spell of the Yukon
    I wanted the gold, and I sought it, I scrabbled and mucked like a slave.
    Was it famine or scurvy — I fought it; I hurled my youth into a grave.
    I wanted the gold, and I got it — Came out with a fortune last fall, —
    Yet somehow life’s not what I thought it, And somehow the gold isn’t all.

    No! There’s the land. (Have you seen it?) It’s the cussedest land that I know,
    From the big, dizzy mountains that screen it To the deep, deathlike valleys below.
    Some say God was tired when He made it; Some say it’s a fine land to shun;
    Maybe; but there’s some as would trade it For no land on earth — and I’m one.
    -
    -A Great Week-end to You Pat Gorman.
