Match details

Let’s get those 3 points, more of the same but take our chances and cut out the silly mistakes.

Currently 2-1 up, attendance is 414.
Tom Chapman back at the club too, a very sensible addition to the coaching team.

Histon currently 5-0 down at Daventry, Chris Nunn must have crossed paths with a black cat.

is it me or is this league really bad for players throwing themselves on the floor and conning the ref?
our season starts here. great three points.

Give it Shanks, Chappers and Harriman full time.

UP THE ****ing RUSHDEN

In all seriousness, the team deserve huge credit for that performance, cannot fault any one of them - a fantastic slice of hope in a season we can all admit we wish had been going better. Do sincerely hope the club will keep The Two Toms and Michael on board as coaching staff.

All hail King Quiche

Am I officially the lucky mascot great to see so many familiar old faces or not so old in some cases. Not seen a game since pre season but what I saw today wasn’t that bad and didn’t look like a side destined for the r word. Hopefully see you all again soon. Brownie (Senior)

My beer definitely tastes better this week!! Great result, well done to everyone involved. Special mention to Rob, Alex and the board who have no doubt had a really difficult few days. First half I thought we were brilliant and should have probably been at least another goal in front. Then second half the ref decided to make it about him. The penalty was extremely harsh (even their sub said he didn’t think it was a pen). The sending off I couldn’t see well enough but maybe right. The yellow cards that followed for nothing fouls could have been very damaging but we saw it out. Thought Rose was great especially in those last 20 minutes, took everything, made a couple of saves and looked solid. So great to see the celebrations at the end. 414 for the attendance I hear, that’s great for how our season has been. We are definitely going in the right direction.
