It's hard to imagine that there can have been too much silence in the Cort family on Saturday night.
A whole host of Corts had turned up to watch the first-ever meeting of Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Carl with his younger brother Leon, the Hull City defender.
And, just when it seemed as if 'little' brother Leon would upstage him after a spectacular equaliser, Carl stole the show and the bragging rights with Wolves' last-minute winner.
"Leon was pretty pleased to get one against us," said Cort Snr. "So I knew I had to get one back.
"But it was particularly sweet to score when I did and I reckon he'll be hearing quite a lot about it. There's bound to be plenty of banter!"
The fact that it was Cort's first goal since late September, following the knee operation that kept him out for more than two months, made it extra special. But, although had drawn a blank in his previous ten starts, his manager Glenn Hoddle never doubted his overall contribution.
"He hasn't scored for a few weeks," said Hoddle. "But he does a lot for the team, he works hard and he's always contributing whether he scores or not.
"It wasn't easy when his brother's already scored at the other end, but he obviously wasn't going to be upstaged. And there's no better time to score than that.
"It was a beautiful goal. Rohan Ricketts has come on and affected the game and won it for us with that cross. And Corty's finish was exquisite.
"In fact, all our three goals were good. It was a quality pass from Mark Davies for the first. And, once Jeremie Aliadiere got away, well, he's quicker than he looks. From what I'd seen in training, I fancied him and it was a super finish."
"Jeremie and Kenny Miller give us a lot of pace," said Cort. "They took their goals well and it's great that all three of us strikers have taken our chances." ..SUPL:
