It squirmed through his legs and had enough energy left to trickle over the line.

First half was like the Alamo. Nuneaton were playing out of their skins to keep a clean sheet. Once we'd got the first goal I expected them to fold. All credit to them for keeping going to the end. Even at 3 - 0 down they still tried to come back.

Cheers

Enjoyed the game tonight, my MOM could have been any from Tom Hannigan, Owen Dale and JJ. All players did their bit for me, a good all-round performance by the lads. Chorley dropped points again, win our game in hand over Chorley and we are six points behind them, and still to play home and away. On a winning streak now and I bet we give both Hereford and Chester a game in next couple of weeks.

Given time could be playoff contenders and would not discount us as possible champions. On our day we are capable of giving any team a decent game in this league. Let's see how far we can get.


I think Chorley's form has raised a few eyebrows - for the first time in a few years, it doesn't look like there's an obvious moneybags team that'll pull away just yet.

I still think we're too inconsistent (and lacking a plan B) to mount a title challenge, and two routine home wins against two of the division's bottom six sides (I'd hazard a guess) doesn't change that.

My pre-season money was on Chester, as they recruited well. They've got over the 8-1 blip v Blyth and seem to be well placed amongst the pack now.

Kidderminster will win the league, for me.

Onward and hopefully upward only a couple of places off a play off spot difficult games coming up against Hereford and Chester + Brackley  and a re-arranged against Chorley. If  we are still in the top ten after that lot  i will be well happy and we really would be play off contenders

I think it's good that we've finally got our home form back on track, but it remains to be seen whether we can maintain our consistency enough to get near the top of the league and stay there. If we could somehow put a run together similar to the one we went on last autumn/winter then anything is possible, but my gut feeling is that we'll be around the lower playoff places come the end of the season.

Good news Ray. Would hate to see a proper non league club like that go under. But they really need to engage with the populace. I still wonder how many in our age group they've lost by not having reduced prices for pensioners.
