"I believe in a Methuselah, Frankenstein, alien beings, flying saucers and the hand of God but most of all I believe in on-loan goalkeepers from Swindon who score goals in the dying seconds." So said Carlisle chairman Michael Knighton after goalkeeper Jimmy Glass scored a last-minute goal to save the club from relegation from the Football League on Saturday.
"The ball drops down and you just go in there. This time it fell to me, wallop, goal, thank you very much," was the hero's version of events. And who was the first person Jimmy rang (on his mobile from the dressing room) after the game? His Ma, bless him. "Mum? Guess what!? I scored the winner," he said. Great stuff.
