It's a tuesday night, for one thing.... 1400 is a decent attendance for us on a tuesday evening, and the first game of the season is always a bumper crowd

Cook off injured, new lad on, added on time being played.

1-1 FT

[A.B.]

Another point to safety...

That didn't sound too good. Southport seems like a must win as the next month or so looks hard.

[dcarradus]

A poor game with a draw a fair result i thought we looked a poor side with fofana having an awful game we lacked ideas an had far to many loose balls an hit an hope long balls i know its early days but i think we have underestimated this league alot with the new signings failing to impress as yet

Could do with picking up something at The Shay too, imvho.

[Bingo]

We have good enough players - they just need it time to settle and for the right formation to be played -wasn't there tonight tho

[Cokey]

Cook off injured

Hope he's not out for long. Our best attacking player by a mile. He was brilliant tonight. Easily man of the match.

Just got in, that was complete dross to put it very mildly. Absolute carbage no two ways about it. Our movement is non existent giving the guy in possession no options to pass to so we go long playing hoof ball. It is poor and awful to watch. Early days but this is a squad that will struggle to stay in this league. These are the must win home matches cos they were a poor team by this leagues standard, the gulf from CN to National league is huge and our squad additions have done little to improve things. Disappointed already with how this season is panning out......

Got to be disappointed with that result, this was confirmed by the fact the Guiseley fans cheered at full time.

Had some good chances to win the game, as did they, but we were indecisive up front and seriously lacked any cutting edge. The most frustrating part of the performance was the amount of times we got into good positions only to give the ball away with a poor pass, there must've been 5/6 times that occurred. We only had one decent 10 minute spell after the goal where we played decent football, but apart from this the ball was hoofed out of defence countless times.

Frustrating to miss out on the three points especially with the opposition this Saturday.

Just got home

Wasn't great , we looked quite matched with Guiseley and either team could have won.

Mo was poor.

Jason played well , I wouldn't have taken him off.

Was massively frustrated by the time Guiseley had on the ball and the way we resorted to smacking the ball forward again.

[The Real Slim Azza]

We lack creativity in the middle of the park and its a big problem.

Its ok having two big units in there but if they don't feed the wingers or strikers then they go backwards and its long balls from then on.

Fofana seems to have a hard time closing down opponents.

The ball goes to his right and then he does two seconds later. Players can pass through him with ease
