Home draw against Scunthorpe, we probably should have won this game especially with them having a player sent off, just couldn't manage a second goal. Decent game overall and we did play well.
Chorley were made to work very hard to earn a replay following a 1-1 draw away at Runcorn. Very poor performance first half, improved in second, think Chorley will comfortably progress on Tuesday night at Victory Park but could easily have fallen at their first hurdle.
Went to this, we bossed the first half but Curzon threatened on the counter without really testing the keeper, we scored just before half time, second half a different story, Curzon were in control but a lot of sideways and backward passes, for all their possession didnt really create clear cut...
As I feared, our lack of any quality I depth of squad came home to roost last night, we desperately need to get 2 or 3 players in but I fear there is no budget to do it, looking like a difficult season. Mid table at best I suspect.
Another 3 points for Chorley but it was a tough game, Bishops Stortford totally lacking a real threat In front of goal but made the game really hard, an over fussy Referee didnt help, several needless bookings. A tough trip to Tamworth on Tuesday followed by a visit to Curzon should give us an...
Chorley easily won a game against a very poor Southoort side who finished the game with 10 following a red card. Chorley never really needed to get out of second gear today, onwards now to a home game against Stortford.
Finally a good display by Chorley granted Kings Lynn weren't great and they havexa long season ahead of them but we put passes together and it was a Goodall round performance. Need to carry this form into Mondays Derby with Southport.
Another dire display against Warrington who were worthy of the points but Chorley were so poor. Preece just doesnt seem to know his best 11 we are desperate for a striker and so weak in midfield, very worried now about this season.
Watched the stream and have to say we were very fortunate to get away with a point, as I posted before the game we are powder puff up front but it was a very good point from our point of view.
Once again the obvious lack of a striker means another game we failed to win, it was a turgid affair, lots of long ball,Farsley scored early, we equalized and I thought we must take at least one of the host of chances, but no, and it was a game we could easily gave lost. Quite worried about...
Here is hoping for a win away at Farsley, we usually struggle there but really ought to be good enough to win if we are to have any aspirations this season.
Rather predictable 1-1 draw for Chorley at home to Brackley we had much the better of the first half but failed to take any of our chances, Brackley then inevitably went ahead just before half time. Second half quite even, Urwin made 2 very good saves to keep Brackley out and then Mark Ellis...
Chorley have finally announced a signing, Centre back, Mark Ellis joins following his release from Barrow, very pleased with this, he is the experienced old head we need in defence. Just need another defender and a couple of strikers and we are ready to go.
It remains to be seen, can only say the outgoing Owners seem confident that the club will be in good hands, only time will tell. The outgoing Owners have taken the club as far as they could and have been dealing with the new people for several months.
Feel exactly the same way, Andy, how could we fail from a 3-1 lead with 15 mins to play, but we did! Hopefully new owners confirmed in the next week or so, personally hope they get rid of Preece but will have to see on that, fingers crossed for a good new chapter starting soon.
Well at least Chorley have it in their own hands, a win guarantees them a place as Alfreton and Brackley play each other, also have the advantage of best GD. Still dont think we are quite good enough though to be honest.
After a super start and a good first half which saw us lead 2-1 at the break we just didnt turn up for the second half and got what we deserved! But for Urwin in goal it could have been 5 or 6!
As I initially thought early in the season mid table mediocrity beckons, oh well let's just hope the...
