FT: 2-1 to Uxbridge.

[BFR]

2-1 to Uxbridge and yet it feels more like victory. A game which we more than deserved a point from and probably all three. Murdered them in the second, but two efforts cleared off the line and a cross/shot hitting the woodwork showed that luck was not on our side.

 

A midfield of Wilko, Roddis and Metcalfe had everybody worried but there was so much running from them. Woodruffe was quality on the ball, Abbey Nsubuga did brilliantly as the lone frontman and Dave Barrett showed his quality.

 

Really harsh that this ended in another away defeat. Play like that every game and we'll start winning matches.

 

And well done Mark Nicholls on picking up your yellow card. Enjoy your suspension

[BFR]

Hillingdon, Bracknell and Newport all lose today too, so as you were at the bottom of the table

[Chris]

Yep, that's probably the best we've played as a team in around 2 seasons now and really did deserve to get something from the game.

 

Dominated the second-half and had two cleared off the line and one off the bar.

 

I'm guessing Landy was not fully fit otherwise we surely would have used him in the final 20 minutes. Suprised we did not bring Miller on as well as we were getting lots of crosses into the area and that's where Miller can be dangerous.

[Nathan]

Were slightly the worse team during the fist half, but completly dominatedthe second. Gutted we didn't win yet it feels great to see the team playing so well. Lets just hope they keep it up and keep the belief 'cos we could have easily have snatched all three points today.

[Martin]

Totally agree Chris, I said leaving that I thought it was the best we have played for two years. The second half was brilliant. We produced lots of goalmouth threat and that is not something we've seen for a while. If we play like that every week we will pick up lots of points and be fine. I saw the team sheet and feared the worst but I thought 1-11 had good games today.

[Tom]

Wasn't at the game, but followed it via the match day live service and it seemed like the substitution of Ellis on for Barratt was odd.

 

Given from what it seemed was plenty of attacking possession on the 2nd half why not bring on Miller or Attrell? Strikes me as a lack of tactical knowledge.

[brighton_rebel]

Brillant second half, we battered them, but fair play to their No2 who headed two off the line. Overheard one Uxbridge player on his phone after the game, saying Slough had murdered them in the second half.

[mrgh]

Agree with everyone we were great in the second half and porbably deserved all 3 points; certainly a draw. How Uxbridge are where they are in the table beats me.

 

We lost the game in the first half. I don't know what it is but we seem to be Jeckyll and Hyde and the moment. Push overs in the first and then come out fighting in the second. It was certainly like that against Burnham and Didcot. Whatever Wilko says at half time he needs to say at the start.

 

Also can't undertsand why we didn't push for draw or win by bringing on Lande I reckon some more power up front might have made the difference.

[Staines-upon-Thames Rebel]

A strange line up with only one up front, however once Dave was pushed up it looked a lot mote dangerous.

 

A very commited performance and some "strange" decisions by the ref.

 

Well done to the TEAM!

[A Rebel and a Saint]

Didnt manage to get to the game or the updates on the website because I was in London at the Royal Albert Hall this afternoon, but I was kept up to date with the score, sounds like an unlucky defeat, its good to see that things could be starting to come together in terms of team performance recently.

[Guest chris-sliski]

its so hard to be a slough supporters these days .. we deserve to get beat when we play badly ..but today where was the justice...we battered them all second half ! and just did not get the break...how the hell we lost this today will be one of life's mysteries...

 

up the rebels...

 

whats happened to Farnbrough..done nothing since beating us 5 nil ... had them for the title ...

Agree with most of the posts above, a strange formation that somehow worked, totally deserved the win, and most uxbridhge fans were saying that their second was offside... I dont understand the Eliss sub either Landy or matty should have been on with at least 20 to go.

[Rebel_Glen]

That has to be one of the most frustrating matches I've ever seen!!! I'm annoyed that we lost when we should have gained a point at the very least, our second half performance was very encouraging and we really had no luck on our side. Any other day we could have won 4-1! If only we could put that second half performance into every game for 90 minutes... we'd be top! With players like Jeffreys, Charles, Brown and 'new' signing Riddell to come back into the side, plus the likes of Grimm and Salaka I think there's every reason to feel optimistic for the matches ahead. Also the crowd was 232 today (their highest this season) and as usual there must have been at least 100 from Slough.

[HorshamRebel]

We totally dominated most of that game, how we didn't come away with points I have no idea. We hit the post, and had more shots than probably in all our other games. Also a great goal from Barratt.

 

I agree with all that's been said so far, with players waiting to come back in, and with the attitude they showed yesterday, it's looking brighter for the rest of the season.

 

Yet again, the crowd behind the goal were very vocal through-out the match. I could hear them quite clearly whilst taking photos from the side.

 

If we can play like that against Oxford on Saturday, with another ful week of training behind them...who knows.

 

Well done Rebels

 

 

[Guest UFC Mark]

Thought you were unfortunate to leave Honeycroft with nothing. It was unusual, as an Uxbridge fan, to be able to admit we were lucky after Saturdays game - we usually get punished when we play poorly.

 

Maybe Saturday's game reflects the fortunes of Slough Town at the moment. But the points will surely start to come judging by the second half performance at the weekend.

 

Good luck for the season (the return match apart, of course) and with your ongoing efforts to secure a home in Slough.
