Not been able to attend matches due to illness. It must have been hard going due to the weather, listening on the radio the first half sounded really physical and a red card should've been shown apparently but not to be, but the unbeaten streak continues and I hope to be better for the next home match
Surprisingly yesterday was a good point. The weather made the game an equal. I have no doubt without the horrific conditions we would have won. That's another game unbeaten from what was a particularly miserable season last year albeit only 13 games into this season I think this season we as supporters would be glad to stay away from a relegation scrap again. It takes time to build teams and clubs and I believe we have made strides. The manager made a valid point. Last year (even under his watch) we would have lost that game - Spennymoor and Bedford he mentioned as 2. Staying positive. Tough few weeks ahead. Well done all.

Steve, sorry but disagree, I don't see how a point at home to Southport was good. Yes, the weather didn't help, but I've seen plenty of good performances in similar / worse conditions.
We didn't create much and never looked like scoring.
Would have liked to seen Ed Leach start and Scott too, in place of Hamilton and Jones. Wouldn't have taken Crane off, thought he was more likely to create something if kept on.
Still agree it's better than last season, that's for sure. I still don't like the short goal kicks, before long they will cost us a goal.

No need to apologise I absolutely respect your opinion. Ed Leach is a winger and not sure he'd be able to play instead of Jones at full back. As you said in agreement with myself we are in a much better position than we have been for a few years. I think I'd have bitten your hand off this season and along with most others when browsing on special media sites to be safe and survived with games to spare than the nail biting last minute of last season.
I believe Leach is the best player in the club, and can't see why he's a regular bench-warmer! And picking defensive line-ups only means a team spends more time pushed back and they're therefore likely to concede more goals. Writing this after the Worksop result!
