GG hits inside of post from corner - ball roles across the line and Williams heads it wide (somehow)

Long away trip and kept a clean sheet. Happy with that.

A good point all in all. Hopefully stopped the rot and we can kick on again from here.

No Joe Ward or Chay Scrivens in the squad? Have they both returned to WBA ??

It was an extraordinary miss. Williams knew how bad it was and talked Nicho through the stooping header - and possibility he could've tapped in with his right foot - as they left the pitch.

In truth, I see little chance of us having an easier chance to snatch a win at the end of an away game. After the penalty miss (Moore was clearly fouled, and no-one appealed for handball) and the red cards (Gerring seemed unlucky to be dismissed), Gateshead pretty much fell apart.

We were more effective in our use of the extra space and time on the ball, but a combination of poor passing (after LRT's surging runs) and poor decision making in and around the box (all the strikers) cost us chances in open play.

Thank you, tomogull. I thought we were second, but I'll take first! Having been a TUFC supporter since March 1963 and knowing how fragile promotion hopes are I won't hold my breath, but good times (and how few they are) are back at the Turnbull. The manager has won NPL Manager of the Month, too. Trouble is ( and TFC supporters know only too well) the 'crowds'. We drew 249 yesterday. Nevertheless the club is in (as far as I gather) good financial shape. So come on, WestYorkshireGull and Yorkie andy gull and others nearby - make a trip to the Turnbull!
