Really open game of football, only their second defeat at home. Martin took his goal well, he could have had a second half hat- trick!

firstdivision Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 4 hours ago, firstdivision said: Exactly. He's the classic player that fits NP's phrase 'I focus on what they can do, not what they can't'. And, at the moment, with injuries we don't seem to have many options, certainly not better than Martin. He's limited in terms of pace and the tactical options that allows us, but at least he's fit and can do some things well. Just like that… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ray savino Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Great result and sounded like a real gutsy performance in crap conditions. We are no way near the finished article yet, but at least we don’t give up and fight to stay in games. If we could get James, Williams and Massengo in midfield fully fit that could develop into a hell of an engine room at this level. Certainly exceeded my expectations where we are at this stage and although not always pretty we look more competitive.

Last season we were a complete embarrassment after the first 10 games or so. We didn't even compete and a huge chunk of our squad were dishonest bastards literally stealing a living out of Steve Lansdown. What we do have now is a competitive streak slightly marred by a lack of genuine and consistent quality through the side (eg Martin's winner was top drawer but he doesn't produce it every game or even every three games). In this division it is the competitive streak and honesty of the players that can see us through particularly in games like today that could have gone either way. Then Nige can think about how and where we add the quality to be able to control games as well as win them. That's the next step but as you say, a long way off and a few of the more "emotional" posters on the match day threads need to get a grip and realise that. 10 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

22A Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 (edited) OK, just got in from the game and my immediate thoughts. City looked too ponderous in their build up play on the right side. Possibly because if the weather, the ref let play continue when others may have stopped the game for an infringement. During that down pour in the 2nd half I feared the Ref would abandon the game. Must watch the goals on TV later as on the bus coming home, all the P'boro' fans assured me there was a definite handball involved in City's winner. 1 minute ago, 22A said: Edited October 2, 2021 by 22A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
