[One Foot in the Grave]

It's time to get off Cloud 9, and kick-start our season. We need to see a performance like the ones we produced against Hereford and Leamington. Kiddy have been having a poor season, but there are signs of improvement. There are three points up for grabs - so let's grab !

[One Foot in the Grave]

I'd start Wall ahead of Peers today, otherwise same team that started on Tuesday.

This must be the quietest match day thread ever. Are we all feeling nervous?

I am thinking 1 - 1   

[Hale Alty]

People probably just forgotten what its like to have a home match on a Saturday.

[robininstockport]

Densmore and Wall in, Hampson and Peers out.

Alty 1-1 Kiddy. Hulme

[oneedham]

Dens in for Hampson.

Jones back with Hannigan.

Keep Peers in. Causes teams more problems they people may realise.

Woweful first half excellent second half . If we had played for 90 mins we would have won

[PaulClementsLaments]

They looked a class above us in the 1st half but we improved in the 2nd and deserved the draw. They always looked more threatening going forward throughout though. Jordan is clearly frustrated with the lack of supply he is currently getting. I would have like to have seen Ethan Walker swap onto the right side for spells as he is predominately right footed and his cutting in from the left became predictable. Great save by TT kept us in the game 2nd half. Like the manager I always look for positives and if they are a full time outfit then the fact we finished stronger after playing extra time on Tuesday should be applauded. Need to win at Curzon next week now.

Is Tony Thompson a player of the season contender ?

[Alty Bri]

At the moment, yes.

[oneedham]

A lot better second half.

I thought Kiddy looked quite decent and so they should being full time.

Dens and Jones were brillant.

TT continues his good form this season.

Not sure about Wall, he has talent but seen him twice now and he is poor at getting tight or close in his defensive duties. I thought we became a lot weaker on Tuesday when Max and Wall came on.

Too many crosses go into our box with Wall on. Desperately need JJ back.

The first 35 was woeful. Pedestrian football. Ethan needed to make a challenge and put the opposition under some sort of pressure. It looked like he had been parachuted in from the reserves. Their right back had far too much space.

Second half was much better which made me think Parky had told them to save themselves cos they had to last a full ninety minutes. After a longer rest I'm expecting a much better display against Ashton.

[jhcorbett]

Something like 1 shot at goal by us in the first half. Much better second half when we looked sharper and quicker, good reaction to whatever was said at half time.
Both teams gave the ball away too much, a draw was about fair.
Dens and Hulmey stood out, TT also had another good game.
Officials were better than usual (i.e. not completely random / bizarre with their decisions).

Wall came on and immediately created our goal with an excellent corner, his crossing ability is his best asset.
Young Ethan is nothing like as good defensively as Wall although Ethan did improve a bit second half. He always comes inside and his crossing is poor at present, think he will develope into a decent player, trouble is we need the quailty NOW !
However, I agree that JJ is better than them both.
Main question is, when JJ is back, do we play Wall or Tom ? probably both (one off bench as Wall isnt fit enough for 90mins yet).

Totally agree about Wall's ability to cross but not good at defensive work and we are conceding from crosses.

I think Walker will be vaulable for us. Reminds me of Dale. I think it will be him and JJ.

Still 3 players at least short.
