We were "ok" tonight and deserved the points. Although much better than H&Y we didn't really look like opening them up from open play but defended well and didn't look like conceding until the penalty. Can't comment on that as we were down the other end. Thought Bradley played really well and Disley had a good game. We did have a minor wobble towards the end and gave the ball away too easily when we should have got hold of the ball and held on to it. If Liam is out for any length of time it's difficult to see where the goals are coming from.Estimate of 250 town fans is about right. Weird atmosphere as there was no segregation in the first half. Second half their "choir" went down the other end. All three of them were sadly missed.
Duffy, Pearson? Just an idea.

Looked to be a big gulf in quality for most of the game. Which makes it a shame we had to endure that nervous last few minutes. We should be killing games off like this. Gave them too much time on the ball in the few mins before the penalty. On the evidence of the first hal all you had to do was go near their players and they'd foul it up. But they showed good spirit to keep going at 2-0 down and with hardly a sight of goal.
Atmosphgere was a bit weird first half with us all ixed in one end. A bit like a rugby match (without the annoying smug tw@s in Barbour jackets).

The fixtures for the other teams are a reak battle. They all nearly have to play each other.
We are not out of it but we need to play with a bit more bekief and desire to put teams beyond reach imo.
Good to hear Duffy & Pearson playing well too

Just done a bit of research on No3 Yassin Moutaouakil, He was captain of the French under 21's - signed for Charlton in 2007 for £400,000 and stayed until 2010 - had a trial at Swansea last year - Played in the SPL for Motherwell. Decent pedigree to be fair, quite a drop. Must have had a bad night.
Amazing, on tonights performance it was like he'd never played the game before in his life. It was like he was supposed to go to the snooker club next door but got lost.

I wouldn't write off the play-offs just yet. Luton are dropping like a stone and I still think we can get ahead both Southport and Gateshead with them both still to play at home.
Admittedly, we need to win on Saturday to keep the dream alive but as much as we've struggled lately Luton's form is awful - 2 draws and 3 defeats from their last 5 games. It's doable.
Exactly, like I said in another thread - another 3 points on Saturday, totally 6 from the last two games, and we'll be firmly in the hunt! We need as many people as possible to get down to Luton n Saturday to give us that extra support. Up the Mariners!!

Wow must have been bad!
He wasn't as bad as jamie Clarke no. He just had a real bee in his bonnett about Elding leaning against the post!, and that got the town fans on his back.

Disley MoM for me. Townsend and Winn are getting a real understanding going between them, and that could see us over the line imho. Something we've lacked down that left side all season, again imho

Townsend and Artus actually developed quite a decent understanding on the left as well. It's good to hear that Townsend is developing something similar with Winn - we'll need to use various combinations before the end of the season if we're going to have any chance of sneaking into the play-offs.
