Stayed at a friend's place in Cyprus last year. They told us their place had a 'Marina View' :

First one looks a bit dubious to me. Moult was right next to the keeper and the keeper was somewhat impeded as he tried to save it. I don't think you can argue that he wasn't 'active'. I think we'd have been disappointed to have it given against us to say the least.
Having said that their keeper looked pants. He probably wouldn't have saved it anyway. Very poor for the other two goals.

Do we need a ground anymore - don't we play all of our games away nowadays?
:D :D

A great result.
An away clean sheet is the thing which gives me the most optimism for Thursday and beyond.
We've been good going forward all season. If we can be a bit tighter at the back then there's every reason to think we'll have a season to remember.

Well done to everyone and a special mention to the supporters who dug deep and travelled to Worcester.

More people on the pitch than in the stands!
Did they introduce the crowd to the players to save time?

I wasn't there but the Radio Robins commentators made a point of saying it was a well taken pen and a brilliant save.
Hopefully we'll get to see it on the highlights tonight but if it was a good pen then you just have to accept that sometimes they get saved.

I stand corrected.
Just watched the YouTube video posted in another thread and didn't look that great a pen.....

Hard not to feel a bit of disappointment that we couldn't hold on for a fantastic win but still feeling very proud of the the team and the 300+ who went and supported them today.

Great result to get draw at a league club who are doing well in their league.

Just watched it on TV. Quality of recording looked fine on that.
Thanks again for your efforts.
Really appreciated.

Just got in. Great news!
Can't wait for the draw. Selfishly hoping for a southern team. Pompey would be perfect for me.

This makes good reading especially as it doesn't include two cup wins..
Good reading indeed.
Slight word of caution for Saturday. On 'last 4' form we are one place below Boston and they have beaten Halifax and Chester recently.

Should be a good game.

Another excellent result. I'm genuinely amazed that conceding a couple of goals when the game was already won has annoyed some people as much as it has, but hey, people have different ways of looking at things.

Eight unbeaten, on the verge of the playoffs with games in hand and in the final qualifying round of the cup (with a few grand pocketed already). Things look bright.

The 'Sinnott Out' brigade have gone a bit quiet, haven't they?  ;D
Agree we should focus on the great result, the excellent performances going forward and not read too much into goals conceded when the result seemed safe.
I would also like to us start to be a bit tighter at the back too. Against the better teams it will be tighter and our excellent forwards could have a day off or an unlucky one. On those days a bit more solidity will count.
Oxford away is a case in point. We probably should have won away against a team doing well at the top of the league. Instead we conceded two poor goals and only got a point.
I'm more than happy with the manager and the 'score one more than the opposition' style would be fun to watch but I don't believe for a minute that is the plan. I'm sure the manger and players expect the team to be tighter at the back and concede fewer than they have so far.

Sinn' in.   :)

Like you say, makes sense for both teams to see it as winnable.
Their form makes odd reading though. 4 wins and no draws. They are the only team to have beaten Chester and only one to lose to Hinkley. Their only other wins were against teams at the bottom but they've won 4 of their last 5.

Can't say I feel over confident but it will be a good test. There are a lot of games to be played before this one too.

Both sides will think this is a winnable tie and rightly so.
Looking at their home results this season I see (like us) they demolished Histon and far more impressively beat Chester 3-2.
However, they have also given Hinckley their only league win all season at York Street and lost to lower mid table Workington.
I think it's fair to say looking at the defensive records on show there could well be goals at both ends.
I like the feel of a draw and winning the replay at Moss Lane though.
Given all the Conference National sides in he draw it could have been far far worse to be fair.

1. They were the first team I supported.

For better or worse, richer or poorer, till death do us part.   In football you can separate but there is no divorce.

I've had affairs with other teams (some of those experiences were exiting) but they we both knew they weren't the real thing and I'd be going back to Alty as soon as the I got the chance.
