That was very enjoyable. We need to keep our feet on the ground though. They were woeful.
Good for the goal difference though ans it may come down to that in the end.

It worked well for the first half in Hartlepool

No idea on the team. I hope Justin can play a bigger part than he did on Saturday.
We are York's bogey team so anything can happen

It was sh*t or bust. We were going for the points and the gamble didn't pay off.
In the cold late of day I think Woking shut us down with their resolute tackling. It was one of those games where we didn't get any luck and all of our shots were straight at their goalie.
Hopefully, things will turn out different on Tuesday.

I thought the pitch was dreadful. It looked like they were playing on marshmellow. No grip whatsoever. Woking obviously came for a draw and we had no teeth. I went home to watch the rugby after they scored so missed Isaac's injury. I hope it's not too bad.
Only bright point was Justin's appearance. He looked up for it and caused problems once he came on.

If he turns up with his A game Justin defo. If he's not up to speed he's so frustrating. Mind you, the same goes for Angus.
If he's not challenging for the ball when we haven't got possession why is he on the pitch?

What a great result. I don't understand the comments about the team looking tired. They put 120% in to get to 2 - 0 and then had to play their socks off with ten men for the whole of the second half. They should be tired after that. So happy that they didn't concede a second, that would have been gut wrenching. I don't think Matty K will ever learn, it's what makes him tick. Hopefully, Linney will let his boots do the talking. He's certainly proving to be a handful.
Full credit to the Golf Road choir tonight. Easily heard for the whole of the match and great support. Can't always say that when we've got an extra 600 casuals in on a Saturday afternoon.
I can't see Dorking getting relegated. They responded well after the two subs came on and gave us plenty of problems. Well taken Penalty. Matt had no chance even though he went the right way.

I can't disagree with anything MarpleAlty has written.
A couple of things we aren't party to is
a) the number and severity of any niggles that players may be carrying which may or may not affect team selection
and b) the health of the bank balance which would have an impact on dipping into the loan market.
I'm still expecting a top seven finish, just not the third that I did think was on the cards before our last few games.

Our opening goal was against the run of play. They dominated the first half much the same as we did against Hartlepool. We just couldn't put our foot on the ball. We had more chances in the second half as they became tired but we were knackered mentally and physically by then. Definitely an improvement on the Maidenhead game though.
It will be interesting to see the team on Saturday because I think there was quite a few walking wounded out there by full time including CCC.

I've just re-watched the highlights. We were good for fifteen minutes and then we just seemed to lose heart. All credit to Maidenhead.

I think you're wrong on the rain front. It's been raining overnight.
Wythenshawe park is flooded. The railway track is flooded where it goes under Park Road in Timperley, Timperley athletics track is under standing water, as is my son's garden which is close by.
If it does go ahead it will be all credit to the groundsmen and volounteers who well have a real challenge on their hands. Assuming they can get rid of any surface water it's going to be very soft.
I hope it does go ahead just to blot out the pain of Tuesday night's second half.

Probably useless then.
Bury have covered there pitch 100%. Must be expecting a Monsoon
