It's hard to make out what Dowson is saying in his post match interview.

As rebelsry has said I can make out that they were 'bullied in midfield by our baldy lad' and Manny Williams showed aggression, won balls in the air and he's only 2ft 6''

Oh and we were singing in the changing room but that's football  :lol:

Yep that’s about every word I got. ?

I foolishly paid £5 for a cheeseburger which was very bland at best, complete rip off... well at least I know for next season!!!

My cheeseburger with onions was so gorgeous that I bought another at half-time.

Well I do like to look for any positives rather than wave a white flag  right away Yes it would be considered a bit of a surprise result if we win but so was last Saturdays result 

Interesting! I had made 3 correct forecasts in 96 matches on the Slough Observer Pundits Panel before forecasting 2-1 against Billericay Town and 0-1 against Woking.

A very assured performance today and I think the best thing to take from it is for all their huff and puff we restricted Woking to absolute zero in terms of clear chances. There's usually a big save from Jack, a great block or riding your luck a bit but there was none of that today. Really kept them at arms length.

We did allow them,in the first couple of minutes, to get a cross in that whizzed across our box and luckily for us,no Woking player got on the end of it but you are right, PaxtonLee, Slough limited Woking's chances to the minimal. Slough deservedly won today and if you had been a neutral at the game today, you'd have mistaken Slough for the title team.

Taking nothing away from Slough with their victory but wasn't Woking under par for a title chasing side.No wonder Alan Dowson isn't happy. They created little and never gave Jack Turner,a notable save to make.

We had some obnoxious Woking fans standing near us [my friends and I] so it was great to see Jack winding them up, Slough stifling their chances, and nice to relay to them,that Torquay were winning ! Oh, happy days. ?

A great all round team performance by our lads today but my Man of the Match was Mark Nisbet.Apart from one mis-kicked ball that found it's way to a Woking player, I thought he put in an assured performance in our back line and seemed unflustered by anything he had to face.

I didn’t see Jack winding them up, but did see a Woking fan in the Woking Leisure Car Park wind his window down and shout at Jack ‘keeper you’re a f@“king c@;t’.

I was very surprised to see other of our players walking to that car park and stuck in the traffic trying to get out of there for up to half an hour. I’m pretty sure we provide on-site parking for visiting players, but maybe we shouldn’t do for Woking next season.

Was not at the game, But reading all the comments about this game, Not one mention about the Ref, Did he have a good game?. There is usually a couple of moans about the officials. According to the League website there were no yellow cards.

Not good but I've certainly seen worse this season.

Like a lot of refs he seemed to be far to easily hoodwinked by players going to ground far too easily.

According to our match report we had Billy Clifford, Manny Williams and Guy Hollis booked. 

Woking's match report say's they had no bookings.

There were plenty of Woking fans who were perfectly pleasant and knowledgeable on non-league football but you always get a moronic element of fans at every football club in the land.

Some of it is just young people who have a lot of growing up to do and many who are easily led by some supposed hard nut, or they are just showing off to their mates but it is not all young people. There are grown adults[ I say the term adults loosely!] who really should know better,who go to football matches and seem hell bent on either winding up the opposition or shouting abuse at them.

I actually think a lot of people go to football matches to NOT watch the football played. They go because they want to vent their anger out from their frustrations of life, or they like the pack mentality of trying to intimidate people [they are the ones I would call c*nts], or to have a go at officials. A lot of them haven't learn't anything about life and never will, and are still so infantile that they should still be in the playground and not functioning as 'adults' !

I don't normally like to see players timewasting or winding up supporters but yesterday I thought Jack was coming under a lot of flak and crowd intimidation, and so thought it was tit for tat, that he played up to the crowd. He didn't get much chance to prove what a good goalkeeper he is, as Woking,the team didn't give him much to do ! ?

He wasn't the worst ref we've ever had but can't say he was the best either. He got the Billy Clifford yellow card right but the other two could have gone either way. On a positive he wasn't whistle happy, as some refs are, when they want to be the star of the show rather than the supporting act , if you see what I mean?

I would have give him 7 out of ten.
