Just Back

In our goalscorers XI, who would be the GK?

When McAtee missed the penalty I thought it was going to be one of those afternoons. Really happy he scored in the manner he did. The cross he made for Taylor was a thing of beauty too.

Sears is an old fashioned full back and he did well. If Sousa scored when he ran the length of the pitch that would have been a brilliant individual goal.

Anyone have money on Waterfall first and last scorer?

I was spot on with my forecast of 0-0 today.  Or rather NOT!!   I thought that they would park the bus and that we would struggle to break them down.

Promotion Plaice said above that he missed 2 buses.  These must have been the players and supporters buses that got lost when they should have been parked in front of the Dover goal.

A real pleasure to be there today.   Good times if you a Town fan now.  Great entertainment every game as well.

I forecasted 4-0 so was half right!

Did you disappear to the toilet early for half time?

Sadly I am an exile, and the first time I checked the score it was 5-0!

Pleased to have got the Dover score correct though!

Simply brilliant. I’ve had a smile wider than the estuary on my face since I saw we’d gone outright top. So many good performers but Taylor, McAtee and Hunt stick out. Bapaga takes a while to get comfortable enough to take his man on and seems to me to lack a bit of confidence. Today was a perfect chance to build on both of those and I hope it’s done him some good.

The ‘red’ wasn’t a red to me - Taylor not in possession of the ball and it would have been a certain red if he had been. Two odd decisions though- the McAtee foul that won us a freekick and the ref giving a throw when the lino hadn’t.

Fans + board + staff + players all on the same page = Town top of the league. Keep that in mind going forward.

Soaking wet but well worth it , best 45 for not sure how long , mcatee i love watching ,his link play with players around him a joy to watch , why is waterfall playing like a man possesed the turnaround is incredible , take my hat off i questioned if we had goals in our side start of season well we are getting them from everybody utm

Can the ref make a poor decision every game please? Been two games now that the fans were angered over a decision involving Taylor and that just seemed to spur the fans to get behind the team and we ended up winning. Bapaga had his best game for us today I think, has looked a bit unsure previously but has shown an ability to move the ball around and win penalties. They absolutely didn't try to tackle him for his goal because he'd already done them twice.

McAtee probably should avoid penalties as his confidence has gone, he rushed that one and got unlucky when he could have taken his time to pick his spot. Apart from that he had another immense game where he was all over everything that was going on. Waterfall once again deadly from corners, Hunt's delivery is so good he can pick anyone out he wants to give them a perfect header with some great accuracy. Rarely seen him get it wrong this season on corners, can't remember the last season we felt dangerous on set pieces.

If we can keep Taylor and Mcatee fit we may well win this bloody league. They are the best partnership we’ve had for years and a joy to watch.

What a team!  I'm not underestimating what they achieved today after a previous week of long, tiring journeys and disappointing results.  We had a key player missing today and today's game could have been a potential banana skin.  Our players, as always, worked as an effective unit and put smiles on our faces once again, and did it with style.

Dover looked as though they might have been up for it towards the beginning, but we extinguished whatever threat they might have had, and made sure it came to nothing.  And then we proceeded to annihilate them.

Impressed with so many players today - all the goal scorers of course, and also Sousa, who looked as exciting as ever when he put in an appearance.  My MOM is going to be Hunt though - he didn't grab any of the headlines or the glory this time, but was very effective in what he did, and worked tirelessly to make things happen.

Fantastic day watching all the goals go in, fantastic feeling to think we're top of the league - about time we had something to smile about.  So far this season we've had plenty to smile about but for me this tops it all.
