Our thanks to the Hereford GK who gifted us 3 of the goals. Our defending for Hereford's three goals not the best either.

Not the best performance today but a point the right result.
Kettering kick us to pieces tue night and had 4 injuries today so happy with a point.
Kiddie flying hearing Moke is trying to force a move to you.

Scrappy game against Gateshead. Simpson saved us a few times when Gateshead brine through one on one and our goal came form a goalkeeper error as the ball seems to hit Montrose and started slowly bouncing to the goal. Seemed like an easy pickup for the keeper who somehow fumbled it in.

Another clean sheet and keeping up with Gloucester.

Hasn't he just signed for Spennymoor? Be surprised if we get him as I can't see us paying fees for anyone.

Well, no doubt Alfreton fans will disagree but finally got the point that was the least we deserved from the game. We didnt play well but were definitely worth a point, had loads of chances that weren't able yo convert, anyway tests now 9 unbeaten. On niwcto Guisrley in the Trophy, not bothered about that at all.

Solid point at Boston. Both sides had chances and both keepers probably the best two players on the pitch.

Getting these tough away games out of the way, I think every one we've had is in the top half currently and four of them in the top 5.

Fucking robbed. Disgraceful decision. Chorley`s boss coming over to apologise is good of him but makes it worse. A real kick in the bollocks and pretty much in the relegation zone.

Mr Krisitian Silcock aside we only have ourselves to blame.
Billy has his tactics all wrong. Siting on leads missing countless chances to put the game to bed too. Why Elliott Reeves isnt starting games is beyond me. Even more baffling is Billing refusal to bring him on in the second half to stretch the game when people are tiring. The lad from Chesterfield Luke Rawson was brilliant too. Great debut.

Absolutely criminal mistakes from us for their goals, all of which could easily have been avoided but weren't because we're stupid. There have been major problems with our formation and player selection for a while now, and now Watson has realised people are seriously questioning his ability to do the job and not pick players who he has a blind loyalty to he's started to make suggestions about changing things in his post match interview. A bit late given most
fans have seen what is blatant not going according to plan for the last 2 months!

If our neighbours Marine put us out of the FA Trophy on Tuesday then there could be a nasty backlash. I mean, what self respecting side goes out of a national competition to Marine?!

Am I right in thinking that Watson is on your board? From the outside looking in it's felt for a while as if he can do what he likes.

He is. The other two board members are a majority shareholder who invested a fair bit, but was basically gifted most of his shares, and a long standing "yes" man. A lot of questions are quite rightly being asked now, particularly with this being a squad of players either signed by or retained by Watson. I think under normal circumstances where fans are allowed in he would have got dogs abuse at full-time today.

Jason Ainsley leaves Spennymoor


He served his purpose couldn't take them any further, was given financial backing over the years with an open cheque book by the chairman. Brad Groves wants to emulate Salford City, unfortunately not with Ainsley.

Feel lucky to be able to attend games judging by this. We've got 400 max capacity at Brackley... so not sure if 20 people didn't turn up, or we just can't sell 400 tickets...

I presume Hereford did get a crowd, as I thought they were tier 2? Odd that York itself is tier 2, but much of the nearby area is tier 3 seemingly.

Blyth looked a lot lot better than last year. Clearly going to struggle, but look competitive... in what's turn out to be a very even league - reminding me of the year Telford were promoted in 2014 by being a smigin better than anyone else. Gloucester must have a chance as they've got goals in them, but presume AFC Fylde are the favourites?

Paul Groves first game and a 1-0 win at Curzon. Really professional performance. Since Rowe went (and Asante) we've not been as potent attack wise but we look so much better at the back and have kept two clean sheets now in a row, didn't have a single clean sheet under Rowe. Our first game back in 13 and a half years at Meadow Park with fans on Tuesday v Needham Market in the Trophy, looks a tough tie as they are unbeaten although haven't played much prior to yesterday due to the League suspension.

Glad to see Rawson get off to his debut with a goal. I think there is some talent in there, he needs a run of games and some confidence

Great appointment for manager.

Great to hear Rawson got off to a good start. He will be a big player for us in a year or so.

York has one of lowest rates in England last week down to 50 in 10000,North Yorkshire is also low apart from Scarborough,soon won’t be with all shameless characters coming drinking at weekends.
Stamford Bridge is about 4 miles from my house and classed as East Riding and a lot of season ticket holder can’t attend from there,just glad to be able to go yesterday.
