2 games in 3 days. 2 wins, 6 scored, 0 conceded. The angle at Barnstaple is awful but the only vantage point for the camera.

700 at barnstaple and 3,100 at home to bishops cleeve.

Gary Waddock looks like a local estate agent off Homes Under The Hammer.

Must admit I thought the way he handled the promotion question from BT Sport was brilliant. Clearly enjoying being back which can only be a good thing for us!

Well struck free kick for Maidstone first goal. In the opinion of those among us who know more about the laws of the game than me, is the charge into the wall by the Stones player acceptable?

Wow, that's the second week running they've done that and got away with it. Surely every opposing manager has to approach the ref before playing them and highlight this?
Same player as well.
Have a look 2m14s in.

Looks like a foul to me honestly. I hadn't even noticed it before!

Well remembered, forgot until you pointed it out. Thin ice with the refs you'd have thought.

It's one of those things that nearly always happens at FK's and is generally accepted as being ok.

I think the key here is to remember that it's "in the opinion of the referee" for most things in the laws of the game. The keys to this one are that his hands are kept to himself and he starts in the wall and is stepping to make a hole in it - a common tactic even if the shoving involved is rare.

I think some will give it and some won't, it all depends on how they view the application of force. Here it's easy to call it a jostling for position, which is no different to what happens at corners and free kicks all the time - in this case due to the fact that the FGR player wasn't standing still, he was starting to charge down the free kick. Overall it's clever play with what looks like a shoulder to shoulder challenge.

If you want to stop it or have the foul called then don't have someone charge down - much harder to push out the way, have a solid wall, and if an opposition finds their way in there then add a player behind him to fill the gap he tries to make.

It's a blatant foul. He's not challenging for the ball and deliberately barging players out of the way. You can almost excuse the ref at corners sometimes because there is so much going on, probably 5-6 pairs of players jostling and going in all different directions, so hard to watch everyone at once but here the wall is pretty static and the foul is easy to see so the referee should pick this up.

I like how the ref had to consult his linesman for probably one of the easiest decisions he's ever going to make.

Highlights of Kidderminster v Salford. Have to say, I think this video that they've put out makes a mockery of their claims that we were diving throughout the game. I think Williams just about touches it away from their man for the free kick that led to our goal, it's a clear foul on Mani for their red card and on the later one that I think they referred to, it's a boot to the midriff of Croasdale. All in all, a deserved three points against everyone's favourite media darlings.
