I think that Cress has finally learnt to knock it round the corner with his right foot ala Emerson.

Go on Son. Old dog/new tricks an all that. Good to have decent players in the squad innit 👍🏻

Must admit I was a bit sniffy about the Conference, but it's doing us a lot of favours I terms of bedding in new signings, boosting confidence etc.

Wish I had the cash to go to some of these dos. But I’m old, knackered and skint. But, we’re winning :crest:

Yeh he’s really forcing it a bit now, it’s rubbish

I think he thinks it makes us defensively stable, it actually makes us more defensively vulnerable imo

Looks like a hybrid pitch but may be wrong.

Not allowed in the Prem. I wonder what the highest level they are allowed in this country?

HT 3-1 to the Mighty Irons

Need to take a good look at that PayetMk2 ankle and bring the PoorMan'sPayet on if anything looks dodgy.

Probably studmarks on Mr Whippy's thigh as well.

It’s nice to be able to moan about decisions in our favour for a change!

I thought the penalty was soft
Their second goal was legitimate

Some strange decisions against both sides from all the officials to be fair.

That is what i thought man made fibre mixed with real grass i imagine, although on further research completely plastic .

I rather enjoyed that - it's was like prime 90s Newcastle ...

Good going forward and kamikaze at the back..the way football should be played.

Better than playing on mud.
Not always easy to grow grass in more northern climes.

Yeah I'm not a fan. Just look all over the place.

But I guess it is a different back three again which probably doesn't help matters.

It's been a while since a ref did us any favors. And this one has done us a few big ones. Really should be 3-2 and it feels like both sides still have goals in them.

We're quick to call out opposition for rolling around and going down easily. Disappointingly I saw a lot of it from us in that half. Is this part of getting used to playing European football?
