Reading post match reflections

[Heliosphan78]

Just seen our goal on the highlights. Wow. An absolute superb bit of play. That flick from Hall and then he gets the return pass, Hugill leaves it and then boom, we score.

I've watched it back about a dozen times now. If we were playing in sky blue you'd think it was Man City!

I've just watched it again.

If Denzel Hall keeps doing filthy things like that there's no way he'll be with us next season. And what a perfectly weighted pass from Spence. As Alan Partridge might say, that was liquid football.

Someone tell me I'm not going over the top please.

No you're not pal, not at all. What a great build up all round and slotted home to perfection our goal was.

Earlier today I posted that so long as the players give their all we will have to ride out the injury problem for now.

Be positive and strong for each other today lads and good luck!

They gave everything asked for. Now 8 without defeat, 5 wins and 3 draws and yet still from a very very depleted squad. No regular striker(s) up front the entire second half for us, speaks absolute volumes in taking a point today. Well done Matt, his crew and our team for a great backs to the wall performance. It was only a superb strike from outside the area that stopped us from taking all 3 today.

Jordan lad, where have you been hiding yourself for the last 1.5 seasons? Great hold up play, headers won and flicked on, battled well and shame you couldn't see the second half out.

Up front is now a major worry if Jordan can't make the game next Saturday. To his credit. Martha is fast and silky but an absolute lightweight to fill in out forward number. This must now be a real worry for Matt?

Josh Ayres? or dare are I even suggest Hamish Douglas now Holmes is back in the side? We need some big men up front and these two fit the bill in our current plight. Not so daft with Ayres as he is a forward and was on the bench today, I know Douglas is a C/H but it's the height I'm thinking of. Just a thought.

I don't think you are, but this bloke thought it was more like watching Barcelona...

Absolutely top drawer play - a joy to watch. All this with a threadbare side.....keep it going lads

And Matt seems positive...

Watched brief highlights looked a pt won apart from our goal Dawson looked dodgy at a couple of crosses & should have been a pen to them Douglas handball. Don't know the answer up front hopefully Hugill keeps fit till January. I'd sooner bring McGuckin back than time it takes to get a free agent up to speed.

He was on the bench and played 20 mins for Eastleigh last week. Wasn?t in their squad yesterday.

Regarding McGuckin, MH clearly doesn't rate the lad. By not recalling him when we barely have a fit striker tells you everything you need to know.

That being said, it was strange he wasn't in Eastleigh's squad yesterday. He's either injured again (and he literally just came back from injury last week) or they got instructions from us not to use him.

A good point. One I was prepared to take before kick off and especially given our awful record at that ground.
Feeling slightly disappointed in the end.
This is a strange league this year. Lincoln are top and they were poor at NYS and there are only 6 points separating the top 12.
Promotion is anyone's with a bit of consistency.
