Shame there’s so many of our players ill !!!!

Hursty on the wind up again 🤣

Come on Town!!

Looking forward to this! Sat on sofa, Mrs has been sorted out, no kids until later, dog has been given his chew. I'm ready! Utm

Hursty on the wind up again 🤣

Apparently not, sickness been rife in the camp this week, might show after kick off...

Efete looking a bit nervous

Even looking for game so far.  Bradford could be one up but for a very precise tackle from Smith, which was mopped up by Crocombe.

What the hell is wrong with Mariners TV?

Everything fell for Bradford there but some brilliant last ditch blocks saved us!

Unlucky there, would have been a great goal!

Good start from both sides, we look slightly the better side

Bit worried about Kiernan on that yellow (which really wasn't).    Taylor's touches a bit heavy today.

Fairly even for the most part, could have scored right at the end of the half. Also some very awkward homoerotic commentary for a while there when talking about Crofty's 2 foot long hotdog. That was some weird sexual tension.  

Holohan has got to score there.

Really strange game. Feels like both teams are trying to keep it tight but then there are spells where there are gaping holes all over the pitch. Games there to be won if either team is willing to risk more.

How's he missed that  
Not going to moan, he's been brilliant until then

We look at least half a yard short of pace. It’s crying out down the wing for their left back to be taken on.

Cracking effort to hit the post by green. But a very even first half

Pretty even but I guess, Town have gone closest with Green and at the least Gav should have it the target at the end.

Still be happy with a 0 - 0 to be honest.

Think we’ve had this ref before and he was sh1t then too if I remember right.

A point is a good result but this could go either way. I think it'll go down to whichever manager plays the correct chess piece second half.

apparently he was stretching for it whilst running. Seeing as I can't do either of those things, I will let him off

Kiernan off for Morris. Hurst probably as worried as we are that he'll get sent off with those challenges.

Kinda timed his run onto it wrong.  Maybe indecision which foot he was gonna hit it with and then it came faster than expected.  He's made some great solid tackles in the first half.

Don’t go bashing the bishop when we win Luke

Got to take Taylor off.

Entertaining game this. Crocombe's save was class.   I 'm getting nervous now though.

Brilliant save 👏🏼

Edit: both keepers

And their keeper makes another good save.

Town playing well but we are a bit hesitant once we hit the final third.

A non free kick.

Shop equalises for York n Manny puts Halifax into the lead

ruman burrell pulls 1 back for Falkirk

scunts 3 down!!

We don't look out of our depth against one of the leagues big boys do we.

Latest...Southend 3-0 Scunny.

Bloody Bradford keeper.  Playing a blinder

Both keepers been on top form today. Crazy how it's still 0:0

Richardson having a cracker. Bradford must be shitting themselves.

Waterfall’s done his job ..... Cook subbed.

If this ends 0 0 it's the best 0 0 game I've ever watched.

Same here.

FT 0-0.

Waterfall immense again, we look good.

Quality game.  Town edged it in the second half.  Their keeper kept them in it.  

Saved by the ref at the last minute?

What a game!

UTM.

Great performance and really enjoyable game that we could have snuck.

Thought Holohan, Green, Smith and Waterfall were immense today, the only downside was having to watch ifollow with Bradford commentary. The co-commentator was an absolute mouth breather

A great watch for a 0-0 game. Had everything but a winning goal for Town which they deserved on that second half alone. Special mention for Messrs Green, Holohan and Smith who were all immense.

Played well, tadge lucky defensively a couple of times, as were Bradfut, should have won but lack of finishing against a top half team again. Rather watch a game like that than a turgid 1-0 loss though.

Oh, and Scunny got battered 3-0 by Southend  

Play like that every week and we’ll be contenders for a play off push.

Sounded like a cracking game, but I can't believe there was only 5 pages of comments. There's normally between 10 and 15 pages

Home game, big crowd where you’d imagine anyone locally that’s a town fan and able to go did. A fee exiles watching a dodgy stream I’d imagine…

Everyone at the game.

Including me, first time in over 25 years at BP. I was given the use of my son's ST, however, it was touch and go during the morning. Health issues playing up and the weather to consider. I decided to go but thought I'd wait in the car and see what the weather would be and then went to the game.

Well, what a cracker of a game intermingled with crap reffing. I thought on balance (not being prejudiced) that we deserved to win and we, in my opinion, had most of the play and created the most chances. If we only had a number 9. I didn't think anybody in the Town shirt played badly with an outstanding performance from Smith, Holohan and Waterfall. Richardson was particularly good when he came on and you could see a good player in him.

My pie and the atmosphere was good as was the crowd in the Trust Bar. All in all an enjoyable match and experience, however, my health issues were playing up towards the end of the game so although I want to attend I think the next match for me may be in the late spring, weather permitting.
