Ray Harvey ripping them a new one for a few minutes. Come on, you [SwearFilter].

Really don't get what you deserve sometimes. Gutted. :(


0-1 :( :( :( :(

Results gone our way, but we really should have got something from this.

Sounds like we can keep our heads held high.

Handled the Nuneaton defeat well so hopefully we can also carry on and handle this one well in the next few games.

Absolutely gutted.

Still, sounds like a good, positive performance from the lads and hopefully we can push on with similar performances for the rest of the season, starting with Tamworth on Saturday. :D If we can do that, we will have a great chance of being in this league next season. Looking forward to the views of those who were at the game.

Hopefully Adam Boyes will be back for Saturday, we can put away a chance or two and we can push on to safety!

Unlucky the lads. Big 3 points needed on Saturday against Tamworth. We've beat them twice already this season lets do it again!!

Feel sick, how the [SwearFilter] we lost that is beyond me.

In fact no its not...
Its because WE sat back and tried to counter when THEY had a man sent off. Its because we let them play it out from the back and pick a pass even though we had the man advantage. It's because we played 4-6-0 with everyone wanting to pick the ball up in front of the defenders and shoot from outside the area or pass it around on the edge.

Why we can't play a channel or put a decent ball into the box is beyond me. We play well, pass it around nicely but you just wonder what our game plan is, how are we trying to score goals?

We're our own worst enemy at times.

[SwearFilter] off.

The other results were all good for us at least.Nothings really changed at the bottom.Just a pity we didn't get anything out of the match.

Frustrating.

Cannot fault anyone for their effort tonight but we just lack that little bit of quality in the final third which has been the story most of the season.

I'm not sure we have enough about us to stay up but if we show that level of commitment for the rest of the season and go down, I won't have too many complaints.

Hard to bear but what a prime example of luck at the top v luck at the bottom.

It's a cruel game sometimes. In the last week or so we could and probably should have taken maximum points from the Nuneaton, Lincoln and Wrexham games.
We would have been on 41 points now and things would be looking so much better in terms of survival.

Enjoyable game until...........

Winger Rowe is having his best spell since joining us, think he took a knock towards the end though so hope he's ok for Saturday.
Defence looks so much more composed with Sodje in it, really hope we can keep him longer. I think they took advantage of Hunter not being a natural RB as they seemed to get a fair amount of joy down that side.
I'm disagreeing with Ste a bit here as I thought we put a fair amount of decent crosses into the penalty area & at least we tried shooting from outside the box tonight, alright, it didn't work out but how many times do we complain that the players don't shoot from distance?
Not that it's any consolation but I thought that was probably the best refereeing display of the season at HS.

It's a cruel, cruel game though!!
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.
