Glad to see you back at the top tier of non-league. It's been a hard slog and you've absolutely earned it by keeping your club going and rebuilding from some very low points.
I'm not a hive fan, to me it's like visiting a different club. Even more so if this weeks planning application goes...
I definitely hope we dont get a bye. I think those teams with an extra game will have an advantage in the next game.
These players will have played almost no football in 4 months and are going to be way off match fitness and sharpness.
This feels nothing like the mid 90s when the club looked like disappearing.
This time we are cutting our cloth early to make sure we do still exist at the end of all this.
Fingers crossed we all get though it and jobs become available again.
Win against Hartlepool,
Expected a nil-nil at half time, we had the majority of play but neither side looked like scoring. sending off changed things but still nearly screwed it up with a daft own goal.
I think that's something like 11 unbeaten now but will need to keep it going to make play-offs
You were the better side.
Our loanee and the setup to cope with 6 missing defenders didnt work. Whatever Curry said at halftime got them playing better but we had no more chances than Torquay.
Linesman on one side was the worst i've ever seen, waving for non existent fouls which resulted in...
Sutton got in our faces In the second half and stopped us playing from the back.
Once it became an aerial battle they were the better side and deserved a draw.
So far so good, we have too much movement and control in midfield for Sutton. Problem is we have no strikers on the pitch and no one prepared to take a shot.
Could easily get caught by a sucker punch but I'm hoping we keep taking the game to them and exploit the space later.
