After reading Simon's excellent report on the website can't make my mind up if it's a point well earned or its two thrown away ?
It's difficult to understand why we do not see these games out.

Also good to hear we finally had a decent ref out west for a change.

Mind you it's interesting to see it's not only Harrow who have had, Ahem . . . "Inconsistent" decisions by the officials go against them when traveling out south-west.
Hendon have also been on the end of some bizzarre refereeing decisions once they venture passed Maidenhead.
Including yesterday at Plymouth . . .

Is it "Just because I'm a Londoner" !!!???

So disappointing to lose a 2 goal advantage.The boys bossed the game and looked dangerous on every attack with pace and quick passes.The pressure was always going to come and collectively we gave them a bigger pitch to attack us as we dropped to deep.I just felt the scenes at full time embarrassed us all ,with locals commenting about how well we played and that they got away with a point they didn't deserve.Thats football folks.Tomorrow is another day.UTB

Two points thrown away I would suggest. Some fans wondering about the substitutions. Probably would have taken a point before but 2-0 up, have to start seeing these games out. I’m hopeful of 3 points at Gosport on Wednesday…if we can get a 4 goal lead with 10 mins to go

Two points lost.

The double substitution of Moore & Brosnan was a cock up.

If either or both were injured, surely when you are winning you manage the situation. ie bring the trainer on for each before they go off. To slow the game down & get new tactics to the players.
Our physio only came on once after about 10 minutes to check Knightbridge.

Sadly the managers abuse of our supporters was embarrassing, nobody was digging him out.
Simply asking why the negative tactics.
He should either answer without the abuse or just ignore it.

I don't think any fan there could understand taking off Kai and George.
Merthyr would have been relieved to see the back of Kai especially as he was putting them on the back foot every time he got on the ball.
We all feared the worst with our set up in the last 20 minutes and unfortunately our fears were proven correct.
The meltdown after the final whistle was unacceptable and embarrassing.
Screaming and shouting F bombs at supporters who have made a 350 mile, 12 hour round trip isn't a good look.
Onto Gosport. Hopefully we get a couple of injured players back in the squad or step up a couple of the 23s to give us some options from the bench.
