I still cannont quite believe what happened. Despite the tragic news of Graham Hobbins death I still expected to see him on the gate as I walked in. I have the utmost repect for both sets of players, supporters and officials for today's minutes silence in Graham's memory, it looked like a very moving moment for the family, and after Bariie's announcment.
As for the game, I thought our forwards fought all game, although our defence looked shakey at times and we lost the battle in midfield. I lost count of the number of corners we had. All credit to BS, they took their chances when they had them and I would have prayed for a goal like that from a corner which did not look as though it left the ground and was not cleared at the front post.
There seemed to be some aggro at the end of the game with their keeper and our fans. I think he was just celebrating the victory and the chance to go top of the league with a shout of " come on" rather than antaganising the the home fans. With the emotions of the day and having just lost this may have been miscontrued.
Our loan signing keeper, David Wilkinson played well and kept us in the game with some fine saves. Next week is another game and we move on. The battle is far from over.
Come on Aderly, I don't think finger pointing it what's required. "Could have and should have" sounds to me like he chose not to clear it which is clearly rubbish.
I think there were a couple of players who didn't perform well at all today, but naming and lowering morale wont help anyone.
My comment stands. Che was on the near post and let the ball go by him when he should have cleared it. I had a clear view of it I didn`t say he did it on purpose to let Stortford win. I pointed out a MISTAKE that cost us a goal. That`s all
The thing i found frustrating about yesterdays game is that, despite the events of the last week, we still ended the game talking about refereeing decisions, the way we lost towards the end etc.
I heard someone say in the clubhouse that though the result was less important than other events this week, it would have been nice to have a less frustrating game at the end of it.
