Give me the details then, how did we play? NLP has it as a good game which we could have won at the end. Team selection looks good. Who are Prestedge and Cleaver?

Our away support is so pony these days, you'll be hard pushed to find someone that went!

I thought we edged this game although coming away with a point is certainly not a bad result.

We were easily the better side in the first half and managed to get quite a few shots away. We missed a couple of good chances and they made some good last-ditch clearances (their 4 was excellent – I’m sure he was at Horsham before?) but we deserved our lead.

Unfortunately their best chances came as a result of defensive mistakes by us. Hopefully they will be out of our system now. I thought they looked better in the second half until we brought on some fresh legs and we could have nicked it at the end but their keeper made a good save from Wareham. I thought we played very narrow with the three centre mids close together and the wide-men on the “wrong” side but I suspect that was by design rather than by accident.

 

It will be interesting to see how we use our squad over the coming games. Baker is now available so will we go back to two up top? I know it’s a game of opinions but for me Macca is the best right back we have yet he wasn’t even on the bench – that worries me.

 

Two home games coming up – a minimum of 4 points needed really. Let’s hope we can do the business.

 

Come on you Blues!!

A deserved draw and I would agree with jl, we were the better team in the first half...and in the latter stages of the 2nd. It is a bit worrying that there appeared to be no place for Macca and that he is our best option at right back. I hope he is back on Tuesday.

 

TBH, for me, we were "puffing" a bit towards the end. Training during the enforced break is no subsitiute for playing and Tooting made this show for a great majority of the 2nd half. Hopefully, we will be better on Tuesday.

 

Billy took his goal well but we did have opportunities to wrap the game up in the first half until they scored.

 

We're still on an unbeaten run in the league since November but we need to start turning chances into goals because, as tight as this league is, draws from now on, are not enough. Back to winning ways on Tuesday, please.

Good to see us keep the run going against based on this season only, a good TMUFC side who are currently well placed in the league. Hopefully we can mash Horsham over on tuesday night!

 

Great to see Billy scoring goals again!

How many fans did we take to the game then?

[Brightside Bloke]

I agree with Ryan the away support is dismal and even some of the home games have not been great support wise. We could do with the numbers for Tuesday & Saturday.

I couldent make the game due to lack of transport, So thanks for the report JL.

 

No Macca is he injured?

 

See you on Tuesday.

[GazzaBTFC]

Macca is not injured to my knowledge...
