Point is Ok there, even if it sounds like we could have put it out of sight early on.

Still 2nd on goal difference from Chorley who won 2-0 so a very decent away point that.

Big wins for Fylde and Guiseley (who hammered Oxford City who were also up there). A 2-0 Boston win puts them in the mix plus Harrogate grab an away win as they start to climb the table.

Definately. Win at home, draw away, isn't that what they used to say was Championship winning form?

Sounded scrappy & I was starting to think at one stage we were on course for our second defeat as nothing much seemed to be happening but a point there is good enough.

Good unbeaten run going, getting a point at a rivals place & within touching distance of the top spot - gotta be happy with that :D
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

First half followed the same pattern as pretty much every away game so far in that we missed a sack full of relatively easy chances, Pilkington's being the worst of the misses. Really should've been at least two or three up before they scored. We were getting in behind them for fun playing it on the ground.

Second half was dreadful, went long constantly against a team full of monsters and we were not surprisingly getting no joy whatsoever. It was becoming very frustrating and in the end we were perhaps a bit fortunate to get a point, although on the other hand they were there for the taking. North Ferriby weren't a good side by any means, but the way they play is effective and it will get them more points than they lose. Ferriby's second came from an awful attempt by Jason Walker to win a free kick on the half way line which allowed them to break when the referee wasn't fooled, he does that far too often.

Possibly would've taken a point before the game, but we need to be better if we're going to win this league.

Win at home and draw away every game aint good enough to win the league Rich.
Overall was a fair result as we shoulda been 2 up at HT and in the 2nd half were fortunate we never went more than 1 behind. Don't think we battled as much as we could and gave the ball away far too easily - too many long balls. On the point of tinkering I dunno why ARH wasn't brought on sooner or even started?
Agree about Walker going down needlessly when it would be better to stay on his feet and its getting annoying now.

Heathcote said it, says it all. 2 points per game has been good enough to win this league once in the last 5 seasons.

A point in deepest Yarksher is a good one but we will need to put the shite in the division to the sword if we want to win it.

421 was overall, so you're saying ~200 Barrow there? Cracking effort if true.

We do however have a game in hand on AFC Fylde - win that and we are top again! Simples!
