Really poor to be failing to get through against a team a league below us. The money for winning should have been a huge incentive considering the clubs position at the moment

Straight red......that a 3 or a 1 match ban?

Can't it be for the rest of the season, big lumbering oaf.

Wrong forum mate Andy Carroll plays up the road.

Not a surprising result given the line up. Boucard is back on Sat 2-0 win coming up.

That's what happens when you don't put teams like that away when you have the opportunity at home.

cheers Geoff.

Got what we deserved tonight, Halifax were far better all round. Thought the penalty and the red looked harsh but then I thought our goal looked miles offside.

Oh well.

You're welcome.

We were always gonna lose this after the mess on Saturday. Not surprised at all. This is the start of a bumpy ride now. Still has a great talent for picking a diamond but he also loves a player or two that are injury prone. Howell, gutteridge and a whole host of others right now. Who was that lanky bloke he bought in with a broken leg Edmans was it ? Can't see a win anytime soon either. Shame, started so well.

You do know he was playing left back come Centre half don't you ? and was making a bloody good fist of it I might add

As I saw it

Untill the sending off Hawkins and Cousins were our best players.

MGD looked woefull for the fourth game in a row and needs dropping in my opinion . He looks knackered.

Gutteridge is clearly not fit.

Hind is clearly not ready

We will not win any game with Benson playing the lone role

If it was not for the Goalkeeper and the Lady Lino we would have been hammered. Imo she wrongly flags a Halifax lump offside when he heads in. For our goal she is so far behind play we get away with Whiteley being at least three yards offside.

The penalty was harsh looked shoulder to shoulder to me , the ref did not give it who was looking straight at it but the Linesman flagged.

When we looked at team sheet we thought Hawkins partnering Benson now that could be an interesting combination , only for the 2nd top scorer in the National League to go and play 50 yards behind him.

The two goals are shocking , what Doe was doing or thinking God knows for the first and the winner,well we can't help ourselves can we.

We are having our best spell of the match seconds away from extra time and we once again give a totally needless free kick away .They aim for the big lump Denton and we don't get the ball out of our box . Three attempts to clear it and it only goes to a bloke standing on the edge of the box to smash home through a crowd of bodies.

The better team won, our injury ravaged squad never looked likely to win but you are not helping yourself's when you have to play your top scorer in defence.

Totally pisssed off 4.30 am and still not home.

And so to York

Hopefully the suspension gives Hawkins the break he needs to recover some energy because hes been looking tired recently. I think its time to give JMD a match off because his form has been deteriorating recently.

Just seen the red card incident. He was sent off and the penalty given for handball. Firstly, it's outside the box, secondly the all is kicked up at his hand from 2.5 feet away so hard to see that he deliberately handled the ball.

We all thought it looked incredibly odd last night (and couldn't really work out what it was given for given that there were no real appeals), but jeez - that is an absolutely shocking decision!

Scott Doe's header that leads to their first goal is one of the worst bits of defending I've seen.
