Well back to earth with a major bang there, after all the excitment of beating a very poor 10 man Stockport side we have a chance of getting a bit of a cup run going but its back to the normal service !!!!!!!!!!!!

[Matty the Shrimp]

not too fussed, beaten by a decent side, on good form. Unlucky as their goal could have been offisde and we should have had a stonewall penalty..

A decent side They were poor today imo both teams cancelled each other out. We were looking ok at 0.0 but they were always going to roll the dice. We didn't tract their sub scores. We then start to play in the last 5 mins. Sound familiar ? Tuesday was just a dream

Tuesday was a game against a piss poor 10 man side !!!!

We did play well enough. They had some good chances in the first half and Baz used his legs well . They should have scored as the ball zipped across the goal line but their striker seemed to be frightened of nutting himself on the post. Although a boring 1st half from our point of view, we would certainly have taken the draw.

2nd half you expected them to come out blazing but it was us creating the chances early on and, as has been said, how their keeper picked the ball out of the air from Jev's free kick I will never know. With 20 minutes to go and buzzing all over them, we fell into our all to often trap of being pushed back and when their sub was introduced we just didn't react at all. Everyone round me was saying the same thing.

Inevitably they scored and just to rub salt in, it was their substitute who scored. This gave them the opportunity to hang back and we pumelled them for 10 minutes and really Drummy will be kicking himself not to get that header on target. Our subs were then introduced but I felt it was all a bit rushed and it was too late by then I.M.O.

Great feed at Penkridge anyway, we shall return in 2 weeks

Must say the robins main stand reminds me very much of our old one, together with their Tardis
