What a big week this is, hopefully some of the Missing lads will be back for Saturday. Still not sure who we’d play in midfield. If we can get short and hannigan fit for Saturday then maybe play bembo-Lita at right back and play dens in midfield with taylor if fit or harrop
-
Both the next 2 games are massive.
With Richman and Moult missing on Sat it's a blessing we're at home. From comments on the main site I can't see Short being available. No idea about Jones and Hannigan. Wouldn't be surprised to see Taylor and Harrop in cm for Sat.
Would be delighted with 4 points.
-
Buxton lost at home to a very poor team last night. Shaw really ought to be exhausted after Ramsbottom and Mansfield. It's time to go for the jugular. 6 points for me.
-
seems that there are some local rivalries between Buxton and Macc that we perhaps should have been made aware of ;)...

Didn't realise he was at Buxton. I didn't dislike him to be fair
-
Thompson
Bembo Jones Harrison Densmore
Hampson Harrop
Hancock Poole Johnston
Hulme
Laurence Taylor should be fit enough to make the bench at least.
-
Swap Densmore for Hampson
-
Does anyone know how long Hannigan is out for?
-
I have to admit I wasn't aware Harrop could play that deep? It's one thing getting 'stuck in' but there's a lot of positional maturity that goes with playing DM...
Can we assume that Taylor is not available or is he just not up to the task at the moment?

I hear that Taylor trained well this week so should have some involvement, that isn't a direct quote nor is it 100% confirmed. Just what I'd expect to see.

Am I right in saying Young won't be involved? He was sent off last week.

Ok your probably correct..

Actually he was sent off on Tuesday against Rushall, so, as suspensions take seven days, to kick in, I believe he can still play against us. Not sure if that is good or bad...

Credit to Buxton today,probably disappointed they did not get all three points today.
Some heroic keeping from TT today kept us in the game.We certainly missed Jake and Simon
In Midfield,was nice to see Greg Young back,thought he had a pretty decent game.
All in all though 2 points dropped today.
-
I'd agree with most of that, but felt like it was a point gained at the end of the game. Although Jordan Hulme should have scored, Tony Thompson, had to work very hard and definitely deserved the man of the match award. Buxton, with a lot of experienced players, were much better than I was expecting.
The unbeaten run goes on and we remain top...
-
Decent game and a draw was a fair result.
Most of our players played to par.
Conner Hampson was superb at lb. He'd keep a fit Short out.
Max Harrop pulled all the strings first half but wasn't in the game second.
The problem was Hulme who had the worse 90 minutes since Stafford.
-
Buxton did themselves great credit today. At no point did they decide to merely settle for a point and it would have been very hard on them had they lost.
For us, TT was outstanding. Let's be honest, his confidence has grown with every match. I also thought Harrop and Bembo-Lita had good games. Does anybody know when Short and Hannigan are back? We miss them.
-
We were probably due a home draw & it’s clear looking at Buxtons 2 prior home defeats that teams are raising their games against us now.
Good thing now is a 2 week break until the next league game by which point both Moult & Richman should be back plus hopefully a few more of our injured players. Will be cheering on Halesowen next Saturday with their home tie vs SLA anyway.
-
We worked hard today, but Buxton were the better team for long parts of the game.
We really missed Moult & Richman, and every time Buxton went forward they looked dangerous, those two have protected our back four this season, our defence has been just as successful as our attack this season. It’s a good job we are not playing Shaw Lane on Monday.
Agree with the comments about Hulme, he has looked sharp recently, but today nothing worked for him, in contrast the Buxton no. 9 had a good game and was a real threat.
I thought Densmore was unlucky not to get a game, he did more running warming up, than a few players did on the pitch.
-
A hard won point today.
I thought Dens should have come on for Taylor at ht.
If Moult or Richman played they wouldn't have scored that early goal.
Well played TT my MOTM
Still unbeaten which is a positive..
-
I want to see JJ on the left more.
How Hulme hasn't put his lace through that ball when he's gone past the keeper I'll never know.
Would have liked to have seen Peers earlier - and probably for Hulme up top as it wasn't working for him.
We missed Moult and Richman badly.
The new left back had a funny first half as he got settled in but played well in the second.
-
I agree with Marple Alty above. I made these comments during the game.
Hopefully PP is learning and won't make some of those mistakes again.
-
We got no more than I expected, or deserved, when I saw today’s starting 11 as that was the weakest team we’ve fielded this season with Harrop and Taylor in the heart of midfield.
You don’t appreciate how good Richman & Moult are until they’re not there and replaced by these 2.
Taylor still can’t wait go get rid of it, usually sideways or backwards, the minute he gets it and Harrop - the less said the better - he’s a 3rd choice winger, where he can’t cause much damage, but should be nowhere near the middle of the park as he’s a liability. How Densmore wasn’t picked before him is beyond me - unless he was injured.
1 point gained, as opposed to 2 points lost. We’ve had worse days at the office.
-
I'd have thought that our failure to take maximum points yesterday had a good deal more to do with Jordan Hulme missing an open goal and JJ opting to shoot rather than lay it off to a better positioned team mate.

n spot on a bad day at the office it's going to happen

Agree with most of this with the exception of the Harrop assessment.

Agreed.
