Decent start, power of the net, listening in Madeira  :)

Hannah and Cook linking well

0 -1, Aswad missed a clearance off the line

Is disley playing
If so why deserves to be dropped in my eyes

They're now down to 10, straight red for 'tackle' on Dizza. Let's hope that gives us the chance to get back into the game

Cook and hannah no hearn then

Ashoddy sent off, bad tackle on Diz, straight red.  We aren't always good v 10  :-/

Quoted from Meza

Cook and hannah no hearn then

Hearn sub

Need to move the ball quickly and drag FGR about now.  Pace, pace and more pace!

UTM

Are they going to park the bus and counter

Big Mac on for a struggling Doig, they've taken a forward off

Quoted from Cumbrian Mariner

Need to move the ball quickly and drag FGR about now.  Pace, pace and more pace!

UTM

Have we got three lots of pace  ;)

Think these circumstances would suit Jones, we seem to be standing off them now1

We must not lose this game

Colbeck and Rodman are both very, very quiet!  Need to press and put pressure on them.

GOOOAAAAAAAALL !!!!  Ross HANNAH 1-1 !

Sing Ross Hannah,
Sing Ross Hannah,
Sing Ross Hannah an he'll score a goal !

Come on

UTM

Get in Ross, great Aswad assist  :)

Get in hannah

The beer will taste a bit better in Madeira now!

Ffs

Cup handle just broken and coffee every where lol sorry if you thought it was town related

Bloody hell Meza, just nipped for a pee and seen your post before I put teh earphones in my lugs!  Thought we had conceded again - ha ha!

Thankfully 1-1 still, hope you haven't burnt yourself!

UTM

Half time 1-1, Town started well but then conceded to their first real attack.

FGR reduced to 10 men and after 5 minutes trying to adjust, Town have been much better.  HANNAH equalised and then McDONALD volleyed on teh roof of the stand just on half time.

Time to re-group and make sure we come out up for the game and take it to them.  Plenty of possession and pressure will result on goals, we still have a strong bench including HEAR, NEILSEN and JONES.  Must keep going at them though and this is here for the taking, nothing other than 3 points today please!

UTM

Classic comment from Tondeur for those listening online...
End of first half, still live... But he thinks it's gone back to the studio...

"I don't know what's going on here".  !!!!!

The legions of fans who live too far away to get to BP will not disagree there John.

Haha sorry mate  hopefully we can take the game to them

Scunny whats the score scunny scunny whats the score your going down lol

Cambridge 1 up

Bloody hell, goal - or not! Disallowed, thankfully.

Need to switch on here from set pieces and get the ball wide to Colbeck /Rodman as it doesn't sound as though they have had a touch this half yet.

Anyone now what the atmosphere is like

Get colbeck off doesnt deserve to be on the pitch so easily get neilson on

Quoted from Meza

Anyone now what the atmosphere is like

Att 3150 (20 FGR), sounds quiet but the team haven't really given the fans anything to get going yet.  Need a change I think, Neilsen for Colbeck.

Only 3100, but only 25 from them

I stand corrected   ;)

Jesus Nuneaton 0-4 Gateshead

Sub - Colbeck off, Neilsen on!

UTM

Atmosphere building up now that we are attacking more.

Is Paddy on the bench?

Penalty to Town

Come on town!

Quoted from chaos33

Is Paddy on the bench?

Yeas, only one sub left as McD and Neilsen been broought on

GOOOOOOOAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL ! Ross Hannah 2-1

UTM

Get in there.

Get in

Neilson has made an instant difference

Great sub by PH. Instant impact

Luton winning 4-2 at Tamworth

Hows big mac done

Quoted from Meza

Hows big mac done

Won a few headers, couple of decent passes, been "done" a couple of times.

I hope we don't sit deep now, because we're not solid enough to play that way

Time for a couple of subs I'd get jones on and hearn

Only one sub left meza

Quoted from Meza

Time for a couple of subs I'd get jones on and hearn

Only got one left, McD and Neilsen already on pitch.

Who would you bring on? Jones, Hearn or Paddy Mc?

I'd like Jones, but wouldn't make the change in case we get an injury

We must stay solid at the back and keep our shape now

Quoted from lee65

I'd like Jones, but wouldn't make the change in case we get an injury

Agree with you there but I would maybe take Hannah off and bring another centre Midfielder on, then we can use Cook as a target and keep one midfielder back.

Crofts says Big Mac excellent, with a number of good passes out of defence

We need a 3rd, as we aren't safe

Quoted from lee65

Only one sub left meza

Oops lol

I have jones on

Quoted from Cumbrian Mariner

If they had 11 yes but they have 10 so id do a straight midfield swap

keeper just made a good save from Cook, corner.

GOOOAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL from the corner, header 3-1 !

Not sure who scored think it was Kerr

UTM

Kerr

Bbc says Rodman

Should be safe now, Hearn on, some think Rodman scored

Quoted from Meza

Hearn is coming on for Hannah.

SKY are saying RODMAN was the scorer

Chester are down to 9 men

UTM

Tondeur still says Kerr

I think we've rode our luck, as JT says, a lot of good decisions by the ref but a number of close calls ( might not get them on another day )

In fairness I think we have been due a bit, hope we haven't used it all up though!

Hearn hits the bar

Scunts have lost 4-0

GIMPS are losing 4-1

Mariners have won 3-1

Not a bad day at all, the result is what matters.  Didn't sound too bad today and not really under severe pressure from FGR.

Great win, 3 points in the bag.

UTM

Quoted from Cumbrian Mariner

Hearn hits the bar

win 3-1 and i think i will hit a few bars lol    ;D

A good positive result, onwards and upwards (hopefully)

Quoted from northbankmariner

Must be your round, surely!!

In the play-offs now , up to 5th place,  Onwards and upwards

UTM

Good result, staying away obviously did the trick but very happy with result and even happier if Hurst can prove me wrong

hey, i might be round but dont call me shirley lol

Same points tally at this stage last season

Cant wait for grimsby pete now to add his comments, after making his journey to the game i am chuffed he saw a win which i for one doubted would come, so what do i know, am glad to be wrong on this occasion.

Great result. Can't say that I understand why Hurst prefers to start Colbeck over Nielson, but hey ho.....

Definitely looking forward to Grimsby Pete's just back thread

I have been sat with Pete today, he will be heading back down south now, he was well pleased that he saw us win, last time he came we won 5.1 so Pete must visit more often...hehe

He maybe off line for a couple of days Pete was saying, apparently got a cable problem with computer at home.

Quoted from chaos33

Great result. Can't say that I understand why Hurst prefers to start Colbeck over Nielson, but hey ho.....

He does seem to have his favourites ie dizza although hasnt started very well.  I was surprised to see paddy on the bench every time I've seen him he's been the standout midfielder.   Colbeck has got back into the team far too quickly for me.

anyway good result and keeps the momentum going.

Agree with the above, I just don't get the obsession with Colbeck .  Doesn't have a football brain

Yep, Colbeck seems to have been reinstated swiftly and I don't really get that, because for me, he's very average indeed. How did he play today?

Seems we opted for a conventional 4-4-2 today at the expense of Paddy, but credit to Hurst; it paid off. I would always prefer Rodman and Nielson as my wide players but perhaps Hurst wanted to use Nielson in precisely the way it transpired - as a high impact sub against a tiring team chasing the game.

Another interesting selection choice was that of Hearn on the bench.

Quoted from Lincoln Mariner 56

Good result, staying away obviously did the trick but very happy with result and even happier if Hurst can prove me wrong

Ditto.

Also gave it a miss, but glad we won. Didn't miss it at all to be honest and it's a bit worrying to see over a 1000 drop on the last home gate.

Coulbeck playing over Neilson sums up PH for me. Too defensive. especially at home to a side who are in freefall.

Disley, Kerr and Coulbeck in midfield hardly get the pulses racing.

Still, a win is a win.

To be fair Ginny I think the top of the table / 1st v 2nd clash brought a fair few extra along the other Tuesday

Not sure how many fans Cambridge had in that crowd too so whilst the crowd was lower I think it was to be expected (especially after the two defeats)

What we need to do to maintain a crowd closer to 4000 every time is to keep on winning...easier said than done I know but the more there is a chance of seeing success, the more that people might be tempted to come back

On the same theme - I expect it will be a really poor gate on Saturday v Rushall

No concessions on the price as far as I know and I was disappointed to see that the reduced ticket prices that you can "take advantage of" if you've got a season ticket, don't apply to the FA Cup or the FA Trophy. When you're supposed to use them I really don't know!  :-/
