Regular keeper Bache is injured, this guy is a loaner I think. Didn't have anything to do all match then misjudges freekick into box. We should have had it wrapped up long before then. Hey ho it was a good performance.

Was it the same keeper who conceded in the first minute v Ingles?

Against Ingles it was a very young keeper from Leamington . Today was a more experienced keeper from Coalville . The young lads handling was good but his kicking / distribution was the problem . This lad looked made two or three simple handling errors eventually costing a goal .

Always easy for a keeper to make a mistake, sounds like we should have scored more.

Our keepers have been poor this season, even Batch hasn't that reliable in the net. I did like the Heather St Johns keeper, he had solid game against us. Shame we can't tap him up, but sadly we don't wanna fall into the old trap of paying extra money to lure a keeper away from another club. I was told in the week we tried to sign the Nuneaton Griff keeper from bank holiday... but nothing obviously happened.
For me I look at this squad and we have seven decent players... the rest I'm not sure about. The seven I think capable of getting us out of this league are Daly, Baker, Johnson, Jackson, Edwards, Spurce & Marsden. The rest haven't been convinced by. I do believe we are set to have good winning streak, I just think Acco and Dodds are trying to find that consistent solid xi at the moment.

It might be hard to have a consistent eleven at this level with non-contract players and low wages. Boro need to adapt to using a variety of players - that will take time.

One hell of a frustrating afternoon . The better team long before the sending off but struggled to turn that dominance into goals then threw it away at the end .

Progress

Progress is the mantra. Slow and steady progress is what we are getting and that’s fine by me.
We were warned,but did it anyway.

Shame Stringer got injured, IMO he's been solid at left back since he arrived. I was by the dugout when he came off, pulled up with groin injury.

Unfortunately I think we might be dropping too many points to consider winning the league. Hope I am wrong. To put a winning run together we need a settled side, which for one reason or another, we don’t seem to get. Playoffs might be our only option of promotion.
Heather St John’s won again. Now won 7 out of 7
