Really frustrating end but overall 2-2 was probably fair & you’d have taken 4/6 against them before Xmas.
For what it’s worth I was sat near level from where Colclough shot & I don’t think Dinanga was offside and, of course, it’s the same linesman who did Dinanga over vs Maidstone on the opening day when he was definitely onside. Strikers instinct takes over from there so I don’t blame him tapping it in but there we are.
I think the bigger picture risks getting lost a bit that at 1-0 our game management was just not there, we were completely on the back foot, couldn’t get out of our own half & eventually pressure told. If we’d changed things up at 1-0, Jennings was knackered & got Pringle on then we might have avoided the game of pinball it became in the last 20.
Lovely stadium they’ve got but the pre-match radio silence from their Twitter account about pitch inspections & whether we were on or not was woeful. Relying on our own Twitter & snippets from Bill in the Three Pigeons, a very poor do from Halifax.
If we can get our ground sorted out we’ll overtake them as a club in the next 5-10 years, about 600 fewer home fans there than we had on Boxing Day & any club that still plays ‘Tom Hark’ when they score a goal needs a points deduction. Highly amusing when their end started singing ‘you’re not singing anymore’ on 75 mins too after complete silence interspersed with the odd random bang of a drum for the vast majority of it.
Onwards and upwards for 2023 anyway. If we can somehow get past Wrexham I think a trophy run should be the focus.
