Match Day National League Fixtures - 30/1/21

[Chief Rocka]

Hello, is this thing on?

Looks like a full fixture list, minus what would've been Macc's oppo, hopefully common sense prevails in this league and it's not our last fixture of the season.


15:00 Barnet - Torquay

15:00 Boreham Wood - Eastleigh

15:00 Dag & Red - Chesterfield

15:00 FC Halifax - Maidenhead

15:00 Hartlepool - Sutton

15:00 King’s Lynn - Wrexham

15:00 Solihull Moors - Wealdstone

15:00 Weymouth - Notts Co

15:00 Woking - Stockport

15:00 Yeovil - Dover


17:20 Bromley - Aldershot


After a piss poor showing at Weymouth last time out I feel like we need to bounce back with a win here, probably our second toughest test so far this season, the first being Torquay's demolition job of us, only missing Molyneux through suspension after his karate kick takedown, wouldn't change too much, maybe bring in Tom Crawford for Shelton? I'd be very happy with a scrappy arsed 1-0 win.

Another match for me to watch from behind my fingers..

 

[John Still]

More pain congratulations Chesterfield.

 

[BeesKnees]

I might pretend we play in yellow fro 90 minutes

 

[LongEatonPie]

Last season these were the matches we struggled with, Weymouth away.
Our 3rd game in a week!!!!....Hopefully!

 

[TheShayWay]

Maidenhead at home for us. I'm always more confident when we are at home. But we are still short upfront. Hyde is probably about a week minimum away from being available to start. So we are plodding on with loan strikers.

Defensively Wrexham were kind enough to allow us our first clean sheet since November last time out so I'm hoping that will bring confidence to our back line.

This ones going to be tough. But I think we will get the job done. Just

Another trip to London for us it is then following Tuesdays draw at Boreham Wood.

We’ve got a few notable absentees for this which may affect our rhythm given how well we’ve been playing of late. Jak Mccourt is suspended after a silly yellow for kicking the ball away on Tuesday, which is a major blow as since he re-signed a month of two ago he’s been a pivotal part of the midfield with his ability to control games from deep. We’re also without Joe Rowley and Tom Denton who will be out for around a month and 2 months respectively..

Expect those absentees above will see Martin Smith come into the side for McCourt, who we’ve not really seen anything of since he signed from Salford so no idea on what to expect. Mandeville will probably come in for Rowley as a like for like change, playing just off of Asante. Hopefully they can link up in a similar way to that last minute winner against Wrexham ...

Daggers recent form gives a bit of reason for optimism so I’m hoping we can go down there and pick up what would be a huge 3 points if our aim of reaching the play offs is to become a reality!!

Agree with most of that, although I'd like to see Dinanga come in for Rowley and not Mandeville. Yes his assist for Asante last week was excellent but he doesn't do it often enough and I think Dinanga has the ability to stretch the Daggers defence to create space for Asante - something which was missing on Tuesday night.

Hoping for 3 points today but take a point given our COVID breaks and fast run of fixtures.

McCourt our biggest loss today.

 

[springerbfc]

Be an absolute miracle if we get anything today.

Having said that, Torquay’s recent form is mixed and we have a shed load of new signings and players returning from suspension.

Perhaps we will surprise everyone and pull off an upset?

Despite the rare clean sheet at Wrexham, I still expect the sloppy goal to be conceded but I agree with you, I can see a tight win. 2-1 Town I'll go for

 

[jacobncfc]

Weymouth are a ridiculous price at 7 or 8/1 to beat us - we’ve lost far more away games to struggling teams than we’ve won in the last 18 months.

 

[BeesKnees]

We are going with as many double barreled players as we can in the hope we can sneak on an extra player

 

[B2TF]

OK Wrexham, what did you bastards do to Luke Summerfield on Tuesday night?

 

[BeesKnees]

One

 

[TonyM]

For the Wrexham fans not paying for the stream - you are one up and we haven't had a kick in your half yet

 

[Urban]

Oh god here we go

 

[MrGloverLover]

Losing at home to Dover. FFS.

 

[spireite]

Why are the refs at this level so absolutely awful. Dreadful decision to ruin this game a few minutes in, just rushed a rash decision, such a big call so early in the game made like that. Idiotic

 

[BeesKnees]

We are being ripped to pieces.

Torquay are walking straight through our midfield unopposed and also getting in behind both full backs.

 

[OneDecentLester]

Virgil van Hollis strikes again... unbelievable bit of play from him to set up Asante to put us 2-1 up despite being down to 10

The forgotten man under Pembo just gets better and better!

Good game to watch at the moment this, despite being down to 10 it’s still a very even 50/50 game

 

[jacobncfc]

Peak half of Nottsball - 80% possession, think Big E had a shot that went out for a throw in.

 

[Chief Rocka]

Pretty even first half, Sutton edging it for me though, our final ball has been absolute piss.

 

[spireite]

This is the worst ref I've seen

 

[Soup Ladle]

Pretty even first half, Sutton edging it for me though, our final ball has been absolute piss.

First game I've watched for a while, pretty even half, but you are right fucking hell, final ball has been attrocious.

 

[MrGloverLover]

Quigley equalises, he's been a great addition to the squad.

 

[ForzaCounty]

County dominant in Surrey, 3-0 at half time with a Rooney double, Woking have been beyond abysmal though

 

[Chief Rocka]

First shot 1-0 up, lovely stuff.

 

[Soup Ladle]

Rhys Oates you beautiful bastard have my kids.

 

[Magpie Mike]

BT Sport Score programme stating 2-2 at Halifax???

 

[MrGloverLover]

Quigley again! 2-1
