14th March match thread

[The_Boss]

Mixed bag of scores so far, probs a few more goals to come in next 45.

We've sounded poor again but comms say we maybe need to go a little more direct as the pitch is so poor, and to put more pressure on the home sides makeshift defence which has looked shaky when we've applied some pressure.

Good manager this Wilkin chap if you ask me.

 

[Gladders]

Good manager this Wilkin chap if you ask me.

Talked a good game when he was appointed, signs of a good manager that.

 

[rudebwoyben]

Decent first half from us. Not pretty but effective enough. Apart from a couple of Midson headers right at the start they've done very little.
The new stand has excellent acoustics!

That's what I believe. Said back in August that I wasn't expecting anything special in his first year but didn't think they'd struggle so much. I reckon they should stick with him next year if they want to trouble the top 5.

 

[Chris FGR]

Pretty lacklustre stuff tbh, got caught out right at the end of the half. Need to up it second half.

 

[BeesKnees]

2-0 Akinde

 

[rudebwoyben]

We take advantage of some sloppy defending by Eastleigh and big John makes itb2-0!

 

[yellow]

Alty get one back.

Also apparently our game is boring.

 

[GTFC1979]

2-0 Akinde

Urban is devestated........

 

[slaphead]

Shots get one back...Williams.

 

[yellow]

Halifax the only home team ahead atm.

 

[rudebwoyben]

Looking far more likely to score a third than Eastleigh to get one back.

 

[Gladders]

2-0 Pittman after Arnold hits the post

 

[pontoonlew]

The dream team up front doing the business again! Macc losing too, this is too much now :laugh:

 

[The_Boss]

We can't defend balls into the box to save our fucking life's.

 

[Chris FGR]

We've been piss poor today, if we could nick a win playing like this then it must be a sign we're a good side.

 

[Gassy]

F*** me we are shite. Absolutely appalling. If the team can't motivate themselves after the last week then we don't deserve the play offs, never mind champions.

Another crap performance. Quite frankly not good enough.

 

[BeesKnees]

2-1 Pen to Eastleigh

 

[Gladders]

2-1 now

 

[rudebwoyben]

Bit of sloppy play by us leads to an Eastleigh pen which Strevens just about converts.

 

[yellow]

We can defend balls into the box to save our fucking life's.

That's alright then

 

[pontoonlew]

Sounds like we decided it'd be wise to drop back, take off a striker and sit Parslow in the middle.

Within 2 mins we conceded.

 

[Master D]

Seems like Bristol R are in the process of bottling the title.

 

[Gassy]

We haven't played well since we played you. We can't score to save our lives, and the 'good defence we have/had have been found out.

A recipe for disaster quite frankly

 

[Gladders]

Sounds like we decided it'd be wise to drop back, take off a striker and sit Parslow in the middle.

Within 2 mins we conceded.

People will point to that if we don't win, but how many times have we done that this season and still gone on to win? Someone will quote me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure we have still won every time Hurst has brought Parslow on for a striker.

Pen to Chester

 

[Gladders]

Chester equalise

 

[Gassy]

We've pulled one back. At least that helps the goal difference

 

[The_Boss]

I think we've given away 20 free kicks in the last 15 minutes!

 

[rudebwoyben]

All very tense in all of the matches involving the top 6 now!
