Missed the first 30 minutes of the second half as our aircon has sprung a leak and flooded the living room (how's that for a first-world problem?!). When I came back to SL the score was 1-0, so I naturally assumed Yeovil were winning!

Could well be, finding his best XI. One thing I will question is, what does George see in Ogo Obi ?! Can anyone answer that ? |

Currently 4th - on GD!
If we can hold on to this, it will be a cracking result.

We need a taller keeper...

Phew! Well earned point. I'll take that.
And we got away with yellows at the end by the sound of it.
Refereeing sounded as crap as usual for the NS

9th on GD. 4 games in, 2 wins and a draw. Not a bad start.
George out?

We need a taller keeper... I knew something like this would happen to add fuel to the argument. |

Not the greatest spectacle but a draw seemed fair. We look an OK side and, to me, I think this team can play better. We seemed quite sluggish. When we scored we looked like we were in control. Their equaliser was a victory for muscling tactics in the box. A shorter keeper might have saved it.
Still, a decent enough point

Not bad for a newbie manager and a team that was only put together a few weeks ago, and is still a work in progress, though. How many people (even the positive poster posse) would have predicted two wins and a draw out of our first four games (including three aways)? |

This is a team that’s got a lot more to show. Four games in and they’re still learning to play together but the signs are there that this can become a very good side indeed. Had a superb chance to win this after they equalised but George Fowler’s free header cleared the bar. Still not sure about Yeovil’s goal. They had a corner and Covolan was pushed over in the melee. Somehow the ref ordered a retake rather than awarding us a free kick. Pleased with the point but disappointed it wasn’t three.

Tbh I felt a draw was a fair result although it was only after their equaliser that we came under any serious pressure.
Still think we missed Greenidge at the back. Such an importantant player.
Not sure we've really got the goals up front to mount a serious challenge.
But hey, a good performance today, well worth the point.
