no sour grapes from our Welsh chums then? (taken from Red Passion)

Awful tonight. Cleworth unfortunately had a shocker first half, they targetted him. Our goal came completely against the run of play.
Whole midfield individually were dreadful. Did we win a single second ball?

Taking Hyde off a huge mistake. Barely touched the ball in their half afterwards.

We’ll be fine, we were due a reality check one day. Just crap that it was against a bang average side.

The tackle leading to there goal wasn't a bad tackle it was the aftermath when the Wrexham player swung a boot at the town player on the ground after ball had long gone was the issue. Stellar performance from the boys tonight though, I can't remember the last time BP was rocking as much as it did last night. Makes the rush about at work all worth it. Parking lorrybup at 1830 after 14 hour day and then 4 hours kip before going out again today seem all worth while  looking forward to many more good games and gates but understand we can't win everything.

Quoted from lee65



Ahead of his goal he walked forward talking to Hunt, arm around his shoulder, obviously suggesting where to put the corner, and the great thing about Hunt is he’s good enough to do it  

Excellent guidance from the experienced old hand


Looks like something they’ve worked on, Waterfall had an almost identical header a bit earlier that he glanced wide, from the same side corner if I recall

Think that was a free kick rather than a corner but yeah

Interesting to read that you thought the second half passed without incident Tommy. It felt much less calm listening to the commentary. Obviously you were there so had a better idea than us listening to JT.


There is a reason teams go route one in the dying embers of a game when they are losing.

Second half especially, it felt like the ball was in our half a lot more as their defenders got the ball near the halfway line and launched it towards the box. It only takes one of them to fall kindly and it's 2-2. Despite the long balls into our box, they only had 3 corners which shows how well we dealt with it. Their long balls should have got the equaliser when McKeown came for the ball and didn't get it but Crookes threw himself in front of their shots; twice!

Huge sigh of relief when the third went in. Absolutely no fear from Max as he ran towards goal and great composure to round the keeper. I was expecting him to shoot before the keeper providing their defender didn't haul him down.

Totally different test on Saturday. If Wrexham get the better of Dag & Red, we could go top with a win!

I was pleased that Max went around the keeper as well. It's become the modern day thing that players attempt to beat the keeper with a shot rather than movement (probably because they've been watching more skilful players do it in the Premier League since they were kids) and on many occasions, it is much easier to go around them. With Sousa playing as he is, I don't think we'll see Max have too many starts, but having a good impact as a sub is just as helpful to the team.

Woke up this morning just as happy as last night. What a performance. What a team. Finally we have 11 lads on the pitch all playing for each other and I struggle to pick out a MOM or a criticism which goes to show how much of a combined effort it was. Leaving the ground last night I felt like I could have walked home (back to Scunthorpe). Before leaving me and a relative were at the top of the Findus stairs just looking at each other in disbelief. After so many years of utter depression its hard to take in how amazing the feeling around the place currently is.

First goal shows the partnerships being built around the team. Mcatee leaving the ball to run through to a steam train Sousa was a joy to watch, first time ball, Taylor is there, it was beautiful. Second goal I got a bit excited at how well Hunt hit that corner so was ecstatic to see Waterfall climb and nod it into the back of the net. validating my shout of 'WHAT A F***ING BALL!!' Third goal put the icing on the cake and was exactly what we brought max on to do.

If you haven't been to BP yet this season, please get yourself and anyone you can bring with you down if you can. Its a sight to behold. Also I genuinely think last night is the loudest I've heard the upper in 20 odd years supporting town. Everything has changed, we are all pulling in the same direction. its an absolute joy to be a part of. Thankyou Jason, Andrew, Paul, the players and the rest of us fans

When was the last time we had someone that could actually take a decent corner?

The way he glides it in, just above the front man, and with pace on it, is a dream to attack for defenders like ours.

As i said after Weymouth, Hurst has turned Clifton into more than just 'on of our own', he's actually a very good player at this level.

I was sceptical of the signing of Taylor to be totally honest.
He then got injured straight away.... here we go
But intercourse me, he's put me down very quickly, love him!

The best thing about this start for me, is Hurst,
Amazing what happens when he gets backed by 'proper' owners....

Built a team, not a squad of individuals (like many others in this league)
None have come with a 'big name' or a 'reputation' of being a big player at this level.

Very very early days.
But Notts county and Chesterfield have good squads, and all of us will be higher than Wrexham & Stockport, who have good individuals (apparently)

Imagine spending all that money to end up with a disjointed, long ball, lump it side. They’ll bin Parkinson before Christmas and probably finish strong.
