Is it seriously £18? Wasn’t it £14 last season? I fear I may not be around this season if this is true.

A great point. We move on. Tough fixtures and a tough league.

MM £18 is what St Albans are charging this season still £14 at Dartford.

Better performance and another great game from Luke Allen , Bonner lucky to have stayed on the pitch and must be looking over his shoulder now with vint on the bench. After the disaster of the Luke Allen sub on Saturday good to see our two managers decide to take big man holding the ball up off and bring small man on thus inviting pressure on the team for the last 15mins. I am starting to really worry about these two. There are no excuses anymore as we have the players it’s down to them.

Adam may have been subbed as he was hobbling around a bit after chasing the ball down over by the wooden man when he collided with the perimeter fence/walkway.

A draw looked a fair result, their goal a quick through ball over the top caught us out but their bloke tucked it away neatly. Cunnington again worked hard, I believe it was his shot the keeper could only push out to Wanndio to score our Equaliser. Surprised Haysie didn't get 10 minutes at the end and how long before Ronnie Vint gets a chance.

It was Cunnington’s shot which the ‘keeper inexplicably failed to keep his hands on. The ball into Cunnington (was it from Greenhalgh?) was plucked out of the air very well from the big man and his weak shot on the turn was the best he could’ve mustered, but between that and Stale Buns hitting the crossbar late on, our bad luck from Saturday has been atoned.
Allen had a very good game as well as Cunnington, but Nasha and Wabo not so much. May well have been more of a formation issue rather than an individual problem as Cunnington was winning everything in the air but with no one to collect the second ball. Stale Buns have a deadly throw-in which fortunately wasn’t used to any significant advantage last night.

H&W performed a colossal comeback from 3-1 down at H&R with 15 minutes to go, that is the stuff of potential champions, so we’ll have a real tough cookie at PP this Saturday.

Who would you have Ronnie replace?

Sorry to say Tom Bonner.

Considering this is virtually a new squad we played really well . The keeper and defence were solid , the midfield won the ball constantly and some very good balls were put through and the front three all did a good job. However the first half tactics were a bit wrong in that cunnington was a bit isolated. He wins nearly every ball but his flicks and knock downs were of little effect as wanadio and Wabo were too wide or too far behind him. In the second half wabo seemed to be inside more and much closer to cunnington and this looked to me as if we had switched to two up front. The second half performance alone should have got us three points
Once everyone is fit coyle and flanners will need to earn their money when selecting the starting 11, this is a big season for them both
The performance was very promising but we cannot judge the squad until at least six games have been played and the likes of noble and McQueen are back. It is a shame we only have 1 point so far but a new squad is being bedded in. However do not forget that we are not the only team bedding in a new squad and some of the other teams already have six points. There is a lot of hard work in front of us
