What a difference in 7 days...4-5-1 slant on the formation today...gave the back line and midfield much more time on the ball....dominated first 45 mins...all to feet and patient in possession and pressed well out of possession.
Goal well deserved after a spell of good pressure and well worked and cracking strike from Cook.
Second half largely ruined by Rose's extremely harsh..neigh ridiculous sending off....
Credit to Jolly..made the sub around the right time and Vernam repaid the faith, first winning the ball in the corner channel and then mugging the keeper off at the near post.
Solid rear guard action second half with a strong first 45.
Well deserved cracking away result. UTM


You just need to change the bit at the bottom

You need to change at the bottom where it says 18/19 you need to put a W

The lads did great yesterday, very proud of them. A very well done to Paul Dixon, I have been critical of him and he was excellent yesterday. Can't believe the keeper was beaten at his near post!

What do you want me to say (something so that you can have a pop at me as my opinion differs from yours no doubt)

Good win yesterday just like the previous game was an awful defeat

I didn't see the game so can't or won't comment on it just as I didn't see the defeat last week and didn't comment on the performance or the players then either (check if you want!)

Otherwise nothing has changed. Last week every fornicator was at great pains to point out it was only one game, there were still 45 to play etc etc

The situation is unchanged, it was only one game and there are still 44 to play

Yesterday does not change my opinion of Jolley (if we continue to win then of course it might) one win does not make a season (just as one defeat does not ruin a season) we will be facing far more formidable opposition than Macclesfield

As I said last week, if the majority are more concerned with the type of football played and are content with a mid table position then great, alls well. Personally I would like more given the fanfare that signalled Jolley's appointment and (quite rightly) our escape from relegation.

Get back under your rock Hagrid. You need knocking down a peg or two, too much chirping off coming from you lately.

I endorse all positive comments about the spirit and endeavour of the whole squad yesterday. Cook and Woolford had an excellent first 45 minutes but perhaps suffered from the extra workload following the sending off.
We had several options to bring fresh legs on well before Vernam's appearance. What an impact!
From a hundred yards away it seemed that there was heroic defending and goalkeeping. My Sheffield United supporting companion said it was highly entertaining.
Hopefully, the goose will make it onto the full highlights!

That's very magnanimous of you especially after joining the 'we're excrement after one game brigade' and predicting a 4-0 win to Macclesfield.

Quoted from Mrs Doyle
Vernams goal summed up the never say die attitude yesterday he harassed the defender right to the corner flag won the ball ran direct towards the goal then coolly slotted it in from the narrowest of angles,

Would have been easy to just have kept the ball near the corner and waste some time(Slade, spit would have loved that)  but he saw the chance and took it.

So glad we signed Charlie he always looked a class act with brilliant work ethics.

Great reaction after he scored he will do for us.


It was a cracking effort by Vernam, both to win the ball and to score. A manager like Hurst would no doubt have ticked him off for not keeping the ball down in the corner of the pitch, because if his shot hadn't got in it would have given Macclesfield possession  

He was probably told to 'put it in the corner' like when Buckley yelled at Dobbin. The only difference being he put it in the bottom corner!


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.
