[GarySTFC]

Finished 1-1. Slough took the lead as the away keeper fumbled a cross under pressure from McCongiley and Romeo poked home from two yards and Cleeve equalised in the last minute through Mike Davis with a low curler into the corner following a bout of heavy pressure from the away side.

Not good enough I am afraid, overall they were the better side and had the chances to win the game.Having said that,I believe they will be fighting relegation with us.Please don't anyone say give it 4 or 5 more games-how many chances do you want.

AFC Hayes are a poor side, Bishops Cleave about the same level, do we have a chance against Winchester City I wonder.

I didn't think Bishops Cleeve were the better side today - but they certainly had more of the ball in the last 20 mins.

It was utterly galling to watch us throw away 3 points in injury time yet again. If it wasn't for Jackson we could have lost that match altogether.

For the first hour however, we looked a much improved side from the one that came out on Tuesday, so credit where it's due, Sweets and the management clearly did a decent job there. We were unlucky not to score in the first half and should've buried two or three in the second half.

Jackson MOTM by a country mile today - Harper and Fenton put in solid performances (Harper managed to regularly outjump the Cleeve giant Alsop - not an easy thing for a relatively short centre back).

Lee Riddell deserves a mention too - sterling effort today and some dangerous crosses.

I have had a telephone call now from the Club and on reflection these things are probably left as a private matter and not posted on an open internet forum. I've not been aksed to do this but think it was for the best. I will be speaking with all the individuals involved at a calmer time and really appreciated the call.

[A Rebel and a Saint]

Disappointing to lose out on the win today, but it was a much improved performance on the last 2 games, Harper back in the defence was an obvious improvement.

Jacko I agree was MOTM and was unlucky to not push that shot around the post when they scored, he did get a hand on it but unfortunately didn't have much of a chance after some stunning saves before.

Fenton, Fermie and Romeo looked good today and Riddell had his moments, much better having him playing left midfield instead of wing back.

The formation seemed to be working better too.

Draw was probably fair but we always seem to run out of luck in the last few minutes, thats the 3rd time it has happened to us in the league, all at home.

Unlucky lads, let's hope the improvement continues on Tuesday.

Having seen Martin's post and spoken to him, I too have decided it's better for all to take off the comments I'd put on here.

We were lucky to get a draw against another very average side. The first half Slough were probably the better side. The second half was ,as far as I am concerned, very poor. Most Refs would have disallowed our goal, we then ran out of steam, and the last ten minutes reminded me of the Keystone Cops. I presume our substitutions were initiated by injury, as they did not work.

 

Have to disagree with Charlie, 2 good crosses towards the end of a game is not a decent performance, and for me, Riddell had yet another poor game. In the end we were extremely lucky not to have lost.

[charlie]

I take your point Ted, but he put in some decent runs in the first 20 mins and constantly looked up for the game too (well, until the last 5 mins when everyone bar jackson appeared to fall asleep) - I just thought that considering how poor he looked last Saturday it was worth noting the improvement.

RGW- Winchester are the worst side we've played against this year. If you do not win i'd kiss the playoffs and a safe midtable postion goodbye

I think the idea of playoffs at the moment is laughable.

[Woody SUFC]

So does everyone at Windsor mate!!!

 

Winchesters keeper had a blinder against us a few days after we beat you and they still lost 5-0.

Not being an internet superstar, I am at a loss as to why you left part of a post on here,and said after speaking to Martin you edited it.If we are not to know what you originally said why not remove the whole post then we would all be non the wiser.

[Staines-upon-Thames Rebel]

Stronger performance than Tuesday, but that would not be hard.

 

2 points lost in the last couple of mins - how many times have we handed over points to the oposition in the last 5 mins? - too many!

 

See Mudge was there again.

By my reckoning, we've lost 8 points by conceding goals in the last 5 minutes of games this season - against Burnham, Thatcham, Truro and today against Bishops Cleeve. Incidentally, all at home.

Wiz, you are so wise. Have you thought of applying to become a moderator?

The world banking system seems to have a few problems, what advice can you give the banks. Obama is recruiting, get your name in quickly.

Palestine has been a problem for too long;how should it be sorted? If you have the answer to the insurgency crisis in the Congo and Sudan, the UN's telephone number is 0110-5342-45866. I am sure they would welcome your opinion.

Talent and insight like yours should not be kept hidden under a bushel. The world needs you Wiz.

[Reading Rebel]

I thought the first half playing 4-4-2 was a marked improvement on the last couple of games and we should have gone into half time at least 1-0 up.

 

Second half we seemed to run out of steam in midfield and Cleeve certainly deserved their equaliser.

 

Definately need some younger legs in midfield to do the running for Pritchard and Fermie.

 

While I will conceed that Riddell had a better game than when he played at full back he certainly should not be amongst our starting eleven.

 

I certainly felt sorry for Matthew Platt, our top scorer, being left on the bench.

If you had been there Was, you would know what went on.

Obviously a bit wiser than you teddy boy!!
