Match details

Well done lads , nice for the late goal to be on the other foot

Great result.

Living fairly locally I didn't leave til 2.25, and it was absolutely torrential - Darlaston seemed to miss the worst of it thankfully, but did have a downpour just before the match.

As a result some bits of the pitch were zippy and greasy, and other bits were heavy and cutting up - both teams struggled to get to grips with the game.

2nd half I moved to the seats nearer Radio Diamonds (apologies to anyone I deafened when the goal went in) - quality commentary as always lads.

Much better performance 2nd half, particularly when Cairo came on.

A brilliant result that on the road after Tuesday night's disappointment. In the last two seasons a match like this after defeat would more of likely gone the other way with another loss, but credit to the layers I picking up 3 points. Only just outside the play off zone now but more importantly stearing clear of the bottom end. Two home games now with a good chance of picking up more wins

What a great result, I was beginning to think we were bottling games. IMO we really should be 5 points better off and need to find an edge in every game. We've been getting one goal then dry up, we need to keep pushing.
Well done lads, let's kick on from here now

3 of D think if we had got those 5 points we would be joint 2nd , which shows we probably not too far away. Sure there will be a bit more tweeking as the season goes on
