The game was lost in the first half. No creativity, no movement. Defensively OK but always a mistake in us, but no real wonder under that sort of pressure.
Second half a different story. Timely substitution from Hurst  saw the new lad on. Calm head and always looking for a pass. Mcatee found his mojo and we pressed them back. We should have scored when the ball was in their six yard box for at least 30 seconds and again when Abrahams movement gave him space in the six yard box but he couldn't find a finish.
For all the money they've spent Wrexham were no better than either Halifax or even Bromley and they spent the last ten minutes (including a derisory four minutes added on) time wasting.
Maybe we deserved something out of the game but they took the one real chance whereas we didn't take either of ours. That's probably what you spend £300K for.

Safe trip home to you and the others

Just not sure you can be defensively ok when we’ve always got a mistake in us

We restricted a costly forward line to three real chances and two of those were on the break. Not sure what else you'd call it.

You where there and I just listened to the radio commentary but I just got the feeling from Tonder and Limbrick that we were crying out for Wright and Clifton to come on and play down the wings to create chances and Hurst brought Burgess and The Shop on instead. Maybe they can see things that our manager struggles to see and I think there lies the problem Hurst is too negative.


Dead Eye Dobbin stood motionless waiting, waiting, waiting for the ball to arrive. Back came the right foot, Down came the right foot, Bang ! Headlines around the world as the ball flew into the very top right hand corner of the goal.( Jim Dobbin scoring in the 89th minute for Town against Newcastle United away 24/10/1992 )

Their new forward cost £300k and scored. Our new forward is on loan and missed a sitter. That's the difference.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

I posted this on the Match Thread and Barra wont have heard it due to being at the game

But Limbrick was not impressed with PH at all. Of course couldnt say it, but it was pretty evident in the comments he did make

Suddenly, Limbrick is the oracle.

Who does he manage?
