    Its even more impressive when you consider that Root, Bairstow and Stokes only scored 18 runs between them in that 2nd innings.

    That must go down as one of the great come-back wins of all time. I was awake following on phone at 5.00 and was so disappointed Pope didn't get a double. One wag on Cricinfo quipped that is its the first time since the 16th century that England has been ruled by a Pope. Well done England.

    Chorley manager Preece ( who played for us back in the day) was very magnanimous in defeat and said they couldn't handle us.

    We've never won a play-off match in 4 or five attempts.

    Terrible performance last night against a team that scored very early and began their time-wasting immediately. We were poor and never looked like scoring. The referee was their12th man in not booking anyone or taking any action against their blatant time wasting. The goalkeeper was the worst...

    They looked pretty ordinary when we beat them 2-0 at our place recently, but looking at their last 10 results they've won the other 9.

    Is he just contracted until the end of the season? BTW I hope you guys stay up and I think Watson will achieve that.

    We didn't crumble and comfortably finished 3rd. The only think that stopped us being contenders was a dreadful start (less that a point a game for the first 10) which we've repeated this season.

    Yes ~ listened to it on Mixir and you could tell quite early that we weren't going to score in a month of Sundays. We can never shake of this slump in form we have at Christmas time. Just 1 win and 5 points from 4 games. 4 consecutive home games and a chance to consolidate in the play-offs now...

    Defensi Defensively we're great , but struggling for goals. I think Tom Peers will feature on Saturday. Kole Hall is back, but he's not a goal scorer.

    I think we had the displeasure tonight of seeing the worse ever refereeing performance of all time.

    Our game v Gloucester off today. Not too sad about that. Not much fun watching their shenanigans in the freezing cold.
