Don't forget this is a Pay What You Want match.

The turnstile also now has contactless payment available.

Going to be thin on numbers again for this one with kaziboni leaving, acquaye suspended and dove unavailable. Let's hope nobody us injured or carrying knocks

Sadly couldn’t make it down today but great to bounceback from Tuesday night. Nice to see Lorraine back scoring, closing in on the century!
Next 5 games make or break the season, playing 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 6th and 7th. Hopefully 10 day break will do us good!

After seeing Bully’s shin tonight it’s a good job we have 10 days off, stud marks like a pair of train tracks.
As you say February is a massive month I’d take 10 points now

Given the circumstances of team selection, windy conditions and losing the captain it’s good to have the three points and just showing in the play off position. Thought the manager interview told it well. MOM really ? Thought Sam Brown was exemplary today but it’s all opinion.

A cold afternoon against a very poor side.

They offered absolutely nothing going forward, game was over at half time and they seemed tighten up during the second. If it wasn’t for their goalkeeper it could have been 6 or 7.

Keeper made one bad error but other than that he was exceptional, could do worse than have a chat with the No 7 as he looked good in a dreadful side so put him in a decent team with plenty of support you never know.

It was a poor side for this level, but I don't think they were poor players. Just a very young side not ready for central prem football. Reminded me of sileby when we got promoted together in the first season and all their players left. They were then just left with a bunch of young lads to fill the void
