Including this match our next four scheduled League matches are all against teams currently unbeaten. Gresley Romulus Shaw Lane and Leek although I am hoping the match v Leek does not take place and that we will still be in the FA Cup.

Interesting to note that the management came from Thurnby nirvana, with the assistant being female. Obviously did a good job with them and didn't give up when they came back to beat us at their place. Be a tough gander again tomorrow and well have to take our current form into this one.

The ex Oadby and Holbeach striker, Courtney Meade, seems to be banging in the goals for them.

Looking forward to this game, on our way down, a bite to eat, good team performance and 3 points at full time.

A point against a decent side with some great goals in the game, feel like we got out of jail probably twice today. Have to liken our bench to a funeral absolute no motivation, encouragement or criticism to the players. It's the same every week weather we are winning drawing or losing.

Feckin get in there. I really hate Gresley. Great effort to get back in the game.

Celebrated like they'd won the world cup when it went 3-2, must have passed on their bonfire when we equalised. Wasn't a great performance in the first half and Gresley deservedly led, but they looked a different side in the second. Immense performance from ross oulton, was an absolute cracker for the second and looks like he might have been credited with the second. Have to say though that the defence were poor today, any sort of pace running at dolman and brown and they get found out very easily. Not sure if mcnulty is a right back or not and we know the Bradford is only covering there. Parsons was poor today, with evangelinos only slightly better. With all these strikers we seem to be bringing in, I'm surprised peaks isn't looking to strengthen in the defence or wide midfield positions. But he may just be waiting for the right players to cone available

Wasn't a great first half performance from us, second half was much better.

Went 2-0 down which seemed to wake us up, Incredible goals from Oulton.

Gresley were a very good side, they'll definite be there or thereabouts at the end of the season. But their reaction when they went 3-2 up, as if they'd won the World Cup made our equaliser much more sweeter.

The reaction was very simlar to the one we saw when we lost at Thurnby Nirvana a couple of seasons back - with a similar cast.
