Equaliser? You mean 'winner' surely?

Great win today, now onwards to the Cup next weekend :)

Excellent performance today especially first half. The stats on the official site tell the story; 12 shots to their 6 and 12 corners to their 1!

The defence did look shaky in the first 45 minutes, but Howe tore them apart at the other end. Second half though we defended really well, and Shane Huke was outstanding. Osano looks soooo much better at right back, although I really feel for Justin Miller as I thought he had been playing very well recently.

You can't beat a late winner! :D

Just a shame about the scum element of Tamworth's support. :x

The incident was at the other end to the Diamonds fans, but O'Connor was certainly furious about something, i mean really furious. The Tamworth 'fans' started throwing stuff at him, but as for the Diamonds fans going mental.... not so sure, most had left by then.

As has been said, it was near total domination from us, i'd love to know the possesion stats in the second half.

Howe should have put the game beyond doubt in the first half, and both defences looked very shaky. Second half both defences looked far more organised and it took a good goal to break them down in the end.

Osano was top class, and Huke wasn't far behind.

I still don't feel this side has really got into top gear, and we're sitting reasonably pretty in 6th. Bring on K*ttering!

Osano and huke where very good but we didn't dominate the middle enough which I think is yet again down to being outnumbered by playing 4-3-3 which is made worse using Sills who contributes very little we are far more balanced with 4-4-2

Our plan to criticise him so much it motivates him to play well is working then ;) Just like Zamora with the Fulham fans last year with the infamous 'burger celebration' because they always called him fat on the messageboards :lol:

Decent away performance. Done enough without being spectacular. Draw probably would have been fair, but cant complain with last minute winner! Shame the tamworth fans felt the need to abuse our players something rotten at the end, which irrated our fans. Over zealous stewarding and policing also resulted with a female diamonds fan knocked to the floor by police! Which irratted our fans even more!! Great win though! :D :D :D
