17 year old keeper aside we were absolute garbage today. Little effort to close down, couldn't pass to a team mate, no shots, no organisation. A complete shambles! There's no doubting Chorley are a good team and really should get themselves promoted this season, they won't have an easier game...

We have Marcus Dewhurst on loan currently, seventeen year old keeper from Sheffield United. He's done well in his first two games.

Exactly the same story with us, it's bemusing. I wonder if it's just that he works hard and every now and again that workrate and strength buys him some luck. If he was consistent he'd be playing in the efl

Jake Lawlor looks to have settled in well. Just a couple of ill thought short passes into midfield but some sublime longer passes into wide areas. Is he a regular with you or a bit part player?

We've only lost two at home, usually pretty solid and have most players back from injury now so hoping we can push on.

We scraped a replay with a 90th minute equaliser. We failed to work hard enough and were sloppy with our final ball/finishing, starting in the third minute when Liburd was through 1 on 1, slotted it past the keeper but not enough on it and the defender got back to clear off the line. I hope...

Iirc it was a quagmire last time we were there and lucky to be played. The rain had hammered down for a few days and all day Saturday!

That's great to hear, well done that man!

When we played there the pitch was more akin to a beach covered in grass. Bumpy and uneven, impossible to pass on the deck with any reliability that the ball would travel straight and true. It was reminiscent of the state of Chorleys pitch for our play off final, a well trodden cow pasture...

There was only one person allowed to be centre of attention today The referee. I'll say no more.

Nuneaton have a pacy attacking threat, just not too strong at the back.

Ah so they must have been Ironborn, "What is dead can never die" :)

My dad followed the original Park Avenue. To the best of my knowledge the NLN Bradford Park Avenue is playing at it's highest ever level and nothing whatsoever to do with the former football league club.

You will be most welcome, we're a friendly bunch :)

I'm delighted that our game has been chosen for one of the live BT games. This seasons FA cup run and tv money will likely offset 10% of the cost of last seasons Cox fiasco :oops::eek::rolleyes:o_O

I'm looking forward to a trip to the Giant Axe, I've not been there since our Unibond days.

They sound like a generous bunch, did you manage to catch any :D

As you say, a possible tv game after Saturdays entertainment and a home draw which is great. Anything more is a huge bonus.

We never do well at yours, you can come to ours - you're even kind enough to score for us at Nethermoor :D

Thanks Vanni, a very fair assessment, had there been another five minutes we might have been lucky to scrape a replay, our lot were shot but they had worked their nuts off closing and pressuring for eighty minutes. Biggest surprise for me was the complete lack of workrate from Cambridge until...
