Bowditch hopes his double blast isn't terminal

TWO-GOAL Dean Bowditch is hoping that his double blast doesn’t prove terminal to his old club’s survival hopes.

The former Adams Park loanee bagged two of Yeovil’s goals in their 4-1 rout of Wycombe on Saturday to keep Wanderers anchored in the bottom two.

He said: “I know I haven’t done Wycombe any favours there and I hope those goals don’t prove too costly to them in the end.

“I was welcomed really well when I was here and I really enjoyed my time at Wycombe even though it was only for a couple of months.

“But I am a Yeovil Town player now and I am pleased to have scored and won the game. I just hope that Wycombe do well from now until the end of the season and stay up.”

Bowditch joined Blues on a two-month loan deal during John Gorman’s reign four years ago and Wanderers were much too accommodating to him on his return.

They afforded the poacher far too much space for his first goal and then let him run half the length of the field for his second and the visitors’ fourth goal.

But the former Ipswich trainee revealed that he got lucky with his first goal which he slammed into the roof of the net to kick off the rout.

He said: “It was quite lucky really. I tried hitting it hard and low and it ended up going into the top corner!”

And Bowditch, who blasted a penalty high over the bar in his previous outing for the Glovers, would have finished with a hat-trick if Blues keeper Scott Shearer hadn’t pushed his shot into the path of Andy Welsh who tapped in instead.

Bowditch said: “I was a little bit disappointed not to get the hat-trick. I was unlucky a couple of times.”
