Funnily enough I think LJ came up with the solution to that problem tonight. Playing Reid up front on his own almost forces the opposition to play further up the pitch which allows our pacey midfielders to play off him and find space beyond the opposition's back line.

Nice to see Thatch put in a brief appearance this afternoon. And then when those three goals went in he was, just like Keyser Soze ( and Kevin Spacey for that matter) gone in the blink of an eye.

If they were a film studio it’d be hard to know if they would be Hamer Horror (geddit) or Ealing Comedy.

I thought it looked pretty good at the time.

Oh that ha what.

Ha what?

I'd put them in the Downs League Div 4. I might even wander up to watch Clifton Vincent Reserves give them a good hiding.

They're bricking it big time. Their worst nightmares are not their own failings, but our success. They could live with the humiliation of non-league football, but the thought of us playing premier league football, scares them sh*tless. It's not about them coming for us, it's about them dragging us down to their level.

Is 2-1 against 10 men as dangerous a lead as 2-0 against 11 men?

Haha 2-0.

I think their support will be nearer the 2 and half gasheads (definition of half a gas head - half as ugly as a whole one) than 3000 of the knuckle draggers.

Truro's supporters must be gutted. Instead of a tie against the famous blue and white quarters they'll have to do with a trip to ex-premier league club Charlton Athletic.

Less than 15000 home fans. Very poor particularly since they won 5-2 on Tuesday.

Our game management definitely needs working on. At 2-0 we were still chasing the game. Can't see it finishing 2-1.

They're not allowed to start until Aizoon posts "have they scored yet".

I was there that day. We were lucky to get nil.

Worryingly, I have a good feeling about today. 2-1 to the Pride of Bedminster.

Shame their winning streak of one game came to such an abuprt end. Is that four defeats in five?

Look rock solid at the back. Lack zip going forward. Diedhou beginning to get the hang of leading the line. Nice layoff for Reid chance. There should be plenty of space as the game progresses. Like to see Taylor and Leko for the last 20.

Dopey on RB. God he doesn't half drone on.

Can see Taylor on for Reid shortly.

I think that's part of the problem. 20 years ago if a player felt a twinge in his hamstring there was no way of knowing if it was serious or not and 9 times out of 10 it was just ignored.

Burslem is not in Stoke. Bradford PA, Oxford City and Cambridge City are not league clubs.
