Lyons off the mark in emphatic style

John Maggs revealed that Tom Lyons wasn't his first choice to take the penalty that earned Horsham a point in last night's match with Hendon but he's glad he did ! The former Lewes man had only been on the pitch for a matter of minutes when his new side were awarded a spot-kick but he was determined to mark his debut in style. "I was umming and aahing about who should take the kick," confessed Maggs," but Tom grabbed the ball straight away and said he was going to have it. Apparently he told the lads he'd never missed a penalty before and he hit a beauty, smashed it straight in to the corner. He's a confident lad so that gives us another option, along with Lee and Claude"
