Nouble has been brilliant for us. He does a lot of work that goes unnoticed, unfortunately a lot of fans at clubs he's played for expect him to be a 20 goal striker which is ridiculous
That was a big win for the Stones today, especially with Fylde and Braintree both picking up 3 points. Shots are in big trouble if they don't resolve their goal scoring problems. Lots of crosses into the box but zero goal scoring threat. Conversely, we now do with Reid, Ashford, Kretzschmar and Adarkwa all in the squad. Enjoy going to Aldershot and really hope they don't lose the East Bank, rare to find such a great covered end and atmosphere at this level any more. Brilliant hosts too.
Our resident ref fans think our GK was wrong to be sent off as she seemed to play on and then bring it back. Wonder if true we can appeal
Once the referee played advantage, that should not have been a red card. She should have given the red instantly though. Sums her game up really, dreadful. Both teams played the whole game in the middle third. Turgid stuff. At least we had the 10 men excuse but Yeovil take the points.
Absolutely dreadful. Inevitable what was going to happen after we scored. Millington in his happy place though.
Moors 3-3 Alty and thats 3 draws against them this season already and another late goal. Both teams should take credit for putting on an oustanding game of football and probably a fair result but lots of chances at both ends. Can see both sides finishing in the play offs.
Should've won that today. Dominant against a very good team. Offside goal, penalty shout not given, hit the post twice, great save 1v1... Despite their attacking talent Oldham created very little.
God only knows how we didn’t win that. Hobson, Glover and Kanu all missed sitters. Thought Oldham looked pretty poor offensively and didn’t really cause us any issues, especially second half.
Last week all the entertainment and a loss this week a snooze fest. 0-0 wouldn't have looked out of place. Glad we won mind you.
Yeah, we weren't at it with the ball at all tonight, reflected in us making an early triple sub. But we're capable of scrapping out a draw when we're off it, which is what we did. Love our back 3 though, and Hudson showed his worth in goal as well. First time we've not scored this season, but also first team to get a point at The Hive, so I'll absolutely take it.
We have no idea what actually went on at Southend today but Mark Cooper's post-match radio interview is not a good listen Weird in fact
Oldham must be the dullest side to visit the Hive. We should of won created 2 clear cut chances. Oldham ran about a lot did very little. Expected Oldham to do more when we gave them the ball but pretty toothless. Positive that we have more players back from injury.
As soon as i saw the line up i said mellon was playing for a draw. Highlighted by the fact he took norwood off for stones. Both looked isolated and tbf thats the poorest ive seen us for a while although to not be at your best and still take your 100% is pleasing. First time at the hive and my god what a shit ground, yet belting at the same time. 2 stands are league 1 worthy but the other 2 sides are the epitome of why our podcast lads say we play every other week away to a leisure centre. All in all we showed little tonight to stake a claim for the title but the sheer fact we got a point shows we are capable of staying in it for the long haul.
