JAMIE Jellis might have just been presented with the Sky Bet League Two Goal of the Month Award for October, but he already believes he's scored a more important one in November.
The 23-year-old Walsall midfielder's stunning strike - a dipping 20-yard volley during a 4-1 win at Grimsby - took last month's honours.
But Jellis' joy at that blockbusting effort has been eclipsed by the delight he derived from his stoppage-time winner in the 2-1 FA Cup first-round triumph over ex-Premier League outfit Bolton a fortnight ago.
Comparing the two memorable efforts, Jellis told The FLP: "It's nice to get the recognition for my goal at Grimsby and it's probably the sweetest I've ever hit a ball.
It's also a goal I'll never forget now, because the trophy will be a permanent reminder, but I wouldn't say it's my most important.
"For me, the Bolton one was my favourite, because of the scenario and, with the atmosphere of the crowd, I'd never experienced that feeling before in football."
