It didn't look like crap more like cramp!

Yes, he was unlucky not to get into the Non league paper's team of the day to join Lewis and Holman. I just hope that he's saved some fuel for Tuesday evening.

..... penalty today is the worse I have ever seen, totally embarrassing, not just to blaze it over but to hit the sponsors logo on the away end roof! It was even worse than Andrews "effort" at Bath in NLS, a couple of seasons ago, when the ball went out of the ground.....

Easier said than done, I recall Robin Stubbs missing a penalty in similar fashion but that doesn't stop him from being an absolute legend

MacDonald was fine, we've averaged two points per match since his return and, as the commentators pointed out, that was enough to see Sutton promoted last season.

Thanks for producing the video and taking the trouble to post it.

Absolutely robbed of two goals . Even the penalty shout wasnt clear, if Evans dived why didn't the ref book him ? We couldn't have given any more , just not our day

I did feel the same as you, Desperado, and they should have had a man sent off for trying to put Moxey either in hospital or in the upper tier with me but I've just read Clark Osborne's message to the fans and that now gives me renewed optimism.

Just for entertainment I've checked and, yes, it's about 5 minutes in. i think they may have wanted to keep that item short so they lumped us in with Yeovil and Weymouth in a one line report.

It takes me back to the days of Westward TV and their biased Mickey Mouse coverage of our progress when we were in the same league as Argyle. On one occasion, when we beat them 2-1 at Home Park they didn't show any footage at all - I've always suspected that the cameraman had forgotten to take the lens cap off his camera.

Unfortunately the weather its going to have a significant effect on the match as it is blowing a gale right down the Channel and in across the Babbacombe end.

After five wins in which we weren't exactly convincing that was an excellent result. There was only one team going to win that one.

I won't comment about the match save that we scraped three points. Our first home win for three months - unbelievable but maybe not, being a TU fan.

How the referee avoided booking any Kings Lynn players until added on time is a mystery to me. He seemed determined to work his way through our team like he was collecting train numbers but completely ignored any number of opportunities to level things up.

They don't need to as they will gain three points on us when the Dover farce is resolved.

Our first goal in four matches, Is this the turning point of the season?

and we're still third but for how long?

Is it still only four?

I can't even be bothered to get the train numbers.
