Well, that has put the cat among the pigeons and back in our hands again.
I'm like a wet rag at the moment, but my god it feels good to finally, finally win a game. Much like the moment of madness from a defender at Braintree turned around our promotion season, the same may have just happened again. Rose planted it in the net superbly and looking at the crowd reaction and noise, we simply can't let a club like ours drop into non league again. The crowd were great and although we weren't brilliant, we were the better side and worked their keeper more then they worked ours. They look a very poor side and looked totally shot at the end. Woolford and the newly introduced McSheffrey were great at the end when we were running down the clock. Showed all their experience.
Thought Hall-Johnson was superb and my MOM, although all the back four played well. The midfield were mostly good. It's up front we struggle. If we had any sort of goalscorer, we wouldn't be in this mess.
What a massive relief.
Spot on with the post. But concerning the crowd, why do so many fans wait until we are down on our knees and threatened with relegation before they turn out in numbers ? Over 5,000 town fans there and with that kind of support think how commercially viable we could be if it was repeated more during the season. |

100% effort today . Thought defensive were superb . Midfield was better when woolford slotted in the middle . Vernon and Hooper both have everything . Mcsheffery look class when he came on . Kept it simple .

Would have liked to see two up front all match in a game we had to win. Macca made a good save in the first half but defensively we were strong and restricted them to very little. We got the break with the decision for once. We weren't brilliant but we got the result we needed.

Looking much better and have to be on our game again next week against Barnet and Akinde pen. Hopefully Jackson will be available next week. And the moral from today is, If at first you don't succeed, try try try try try try try try try try try try try try try try try try try try again!!  |

Surprised that we are seeing the typical over reaction to a win - we were most definitely not fantastic defensively. Chesterfield didn't hurt us, tbf we kept them under control, but we repeatedly made awful individual intercourse ups and presented them with the ball. Mostly in the first half, but the worst occasion wa from clarke in the second half. Luckily we were playing against such an awful team.
We had good performances from midfield in the middle third but yet again no creativity. Up front we did hav a couple of chances such as when hooper was presnted with a 1 on 1, but spurned them yet again.
Glad that MJ seems to be getting us organised defensively at home but nothing can cover up the awful individual lack of ability running thru this team from front to back. Thank God there is only a few games left so this win may be enough.
No lack of effort from the team today, don't get me wrong, and had some individual decent performances, but u can still see why we are where we are.

See what you are saying toontown, but we are down the bottom for a reason, same as Chesterfield. We weren't great but we were better than them and deserved to win. We only have to match the other crap sides in the league now and we will be safe. I expect there will be many more mistakes before the season is over, but Barnet and FGR will make a few as well. I'm just rejoicing in the 3 points and the momentum it gives us. Don't care about the performance.

The team aren't going to become world beaters overnight but there are definite signs of improvement. Now they have got the games without a win monkey off their backs they will have more confidence next Saturday and beat Barnet. |

They had a few chances in the first half, but when we changed tactics at half time Chesterfield were pretty much contained. Good to have a manager who recognises he needs to change things.
