I’m still waiting for someone to point out that Towler isn’t called ‘Ryan’……


I’m assuming he means Sears.

Attendance 4,478, that's a bloody good crowd for them.


The Grimsby factor.. ☺️

Just at the services. Games like today make you realise how good the drive and determination is with this squad. Probably the best town team I've seen in the last 15years plus. I thought we mainly controlled the game with out creating to many chances. They always looked a threat coming forward. If of been happy with 00 but to win it like we did is unbelievable

Woking are a decent team with big men all over the pitch that made it difficult for us to get any football going .
Defence stood firm against set pieces brilliantly from start to finish and a big tricky guy up front who loved to run at our defence.
Taylor up front on his own had no look in against their monsters in a back 3 and we played in front of them for long periods especially in the second half .
Kept going and didn’t settle for a 0-0 which would’ve be enough an ok result leading to Cliftons smash into the bottom corner .
Well done lads . Keep it going and we’ll be right up there no doubts .

What a lovely afternoon standing in the autumnal sunshine after the Bromley deluge.
Impressed by Woking especially in the first half, thought they were very mobile for such big guys and were a bit lucky with a couple of free headers being off target.
Disappointed that we gave the ball away as often as we did but we were very good at winning the ball back. Think PH mentioned that we top the stats for ball recovery.
An hour in I would have settled for 0-0 as I couldn't see us creating a threatening chance and despite their pressing I can't recall Macca having a save to make
Then step up Mr. H Clifton, one of own I believe, with a sumptuous strike. Lovely

Very good win that. Feared we weren’t going to break them down and they looked dangerous in parts. Big bûggers!

But the team kept going, limiting their chances, and patiently trying to break them down. As the game wore on we got more possession, not necessarily leading anywhere apart from the odd nearly moment. Still they let going, passing by and passing and passing. Keeping the ball, drawing a foul. I think that contributed to wearing them out, and created a chino of space in the box allowing Max to cross it to Harry who finished it off surgically.


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.

On the way from the car to the ground I was reflecting on the same game in 2013 when Dis scored a winner in the 90th minute, I thought to myself wouldn’t a winner at that point of the game be nice today, I can tell you now it was.

This was a really big result against a physically strong, well organised and in recent weeks free scoring Woking side. The players deserve lots of praise for their resilience and application as it didn’t quite click like it has done in the last 2 games, they where rewarded for this with a well worked and well finished goal.

All the players deserve praise but once again Waterfall and Towler stood out as part of the strong spine we currently have.

One thing to point out is that today we lost possession of the ball a lot, well more than normal, sometimes quite softly but the desire and application to tackle and win it back isn’t something I can say I’ve seen in the past, it gives me a really confident feeling that that attitude is spot on.

The players worked their socks off in what has been a busy schedule when you look at the away miles covered as well as the fixtures it wasn’t the prettiest for sure but a massive win today.

UTM!
