Disappointing result after being 3-1 up at half time. Got to close those games out. Interesting end where the officials allowed a 4th New Bradwell substitution. Absolutely no bearing on the result but shouldn't happen at this level.

[MalteseFalcon]

Eight goal thriller at Kensington Borough, with Brimsdown scoring an injury time equaliser despite being down to 9 men .....!

[Savagebee]

Southall V Hillingdon Borough

 

The first half was a tense affair and spoiled by the young ref.

 

The second was much better and Southall deserved the win. A.Page, D.Bennell and A.Louth were superb and to be honest all the Southall players played well today. The Hillingdon Borough dangerman A.Harewood was dealt with well by the superb Southall defenders. L.McManus had a very quiet game for Hillingdon Borough and Hillingdons D.Rhone didnt play like a player who has played at a higher level. The Hillingdon keeper R.Mullane had a poor game. Southall are on fire.

 

Its a pleasure to watch Southall these days.

[thecoldend]

Was at Hatfield v Codicote... 0-3 a little harsh on the hosts who played well in spells especially during first half. Cod looking comfortable at 0-1 and got two late goals to put some gloss on the victory.

 

Reggie Ross looked very good for Cod.... nearly scored a fantastic goal after a mazy run in from the left hand side.

[Uncle T]

Levy beat London Colney with a depleted side and with two players off at half time due to illness. We won 4-3.

[thecoldend]

Some huge results at the top of the Premier. LONDON COLNEY losing, HERTFORD TOWN winning, FOSTERS winning again and WGC being well beaten at a resurgent ST MAGS.

[BigDogCol]

330 noisy souls at a very frosty Hertingfordbury Park today to watch Hertford Town close the gap on London Colney after a hard-fought 2-1 derby win over Broxbourne Boro.

This league is really on the up and getting some great entertainment & attendances at Step 5 these days!

[thecoldend]

Agree with you there Col. Here's to lots more higher crowds in 2017. I really do believe many fans (esp families with children) are turning to non-league as Premier League is now ££££££££££££s

[OD's]

Looks like the Prem is settling into a 2 horse race.

WGC dropped too many points now. Cockfosters though looking good but can they keep it up. The rest too inconsistent.

 

Big disappointment is Biggleswade United after all the pre season hype.

[HallSeaIsAPenIs]

Agree WGC losing some supposed easy games...again like Biggleswade, havent truly lived up to the pre-season hype...although not as poorly.

 

I think its going to be a tough one from here on..watched the Hertford game, Kersey up top on his own and thought. What other real options do we have?! Very dissapointing. Its as though the players dont have as much faith as you want them to in the management at times

You can tell by watching the players that they have little faith in the management, what a strange thing to be able to witness on a football pitch!

Ever heard of the "Quote" button?! Lol.

 

Is it very strange? or do you just not concentrate or actually know much about football?

Never experienced a player not playing for the manager?

[nonleaguegenius]

Welly have tried to buy the league, they've put in various 7 dayers over the last couple weeks to try bring in players but barely anybody has joined. Hertford Town are going to go up, they have the best side, facilities and fanbase they deserve to go up imo

I think teams do buy the league dont they surely?! After all Hertford have about 6 coaches, even one on the other side of the pitch most games, ringing up the managers with tactics from what ive experienced a few weeks ago.But i know what youre getting at.

How would you know about various 7 dayers?

I think tbh London Colney deserve to more so, considering theyve been close the last 2 seasons and will again this season, if were going on current form/recent history. But yes Hertford do have the best side, fanbase numbers wise yes, now theyve got rid of the shambles of last season.

Mind the fan base only seem to get going once its the seocnd half or the pints start kicking in from my experience.

Still either of the 2 mentioned are worthy.

[Catdog Rovers]

Wether people "buy the league" or not is beside the point.

Budgets don't even come into it for me.

Not sure if the rumoured trillion pound wage bill at WGC is true or not, but if they finish top of the league, they deserve to go up, whatever they, or anyone else spends.

 

Anyway, we're only half way through the season and they're only 9 points behind. Far too early to be writing them off.

 

Even Wembley and Tring are still in with a shout. Potentially 7 and 8 points behind Hertford if they win their games in hand. And both still to play them twice I believe.

There are many more twists and turns to go yet.

 

That being said, I'd still personally back Hertford to do it.

I think they're pretty equal with Colney on the pitch, despite LC's shocking night a few weeks ago.

But Hertford seem to have a much better set-up off the field. I think that really can make a difference.

It still remains to be seen if Colney's ground will even make the required grade.

 

 

As for let downs, don't forget that Biggleswade have a lot of games in hand.

The real disappointments for me have been Berko, who have been wildly inconsistent. Great away wins at Cockfosters and Hoddesdon, followed by silly home defeats to Oxhey and Colney Heath. Not to mention that 6-0 loss at Wembley.

And what on Earth's happening with Hadley?

71 points last season. Half way through this and they've got 17.
