Like i said, it’s a very decent point, but i’m also just being a realist when i say that any decent team will seriously exploit us. As TW10 said, the opinions are balanced and i don’t see any issue with acknowledging concern, especially with our daunting fixture list, whilst also seeing yesterday as a positive point.

Massey is going to be absolutely vital next Saturday. Him and Jason Prior will have an intriguing battle. But agreed he does need cover for his lack of pace. He's an old-school no nonsense centre half, but something we did lack last season during our poor run. Really good point yesterday, from a game salisbury should've probably won.

Well we start off with a point and unbeaten. And we must have the best Keeper in the league. What a good day Dowsons new club lost as well.

In our last game at Dorking we were 3 nil down in 7 minutes. No doubt next Saturday’s game will be a rearguard action for long periods but in that last game we sat too deep from the start and were overrun in midfield. If we allow crosses to come in then Dorking will be very happy. They have better finishers than Salisbury.

Don't panic Captain Mainwaring, the FWP predicted table has us finishing 14th having drawn all 46 games: https://www.footballwebpages.co.uk/nati ... /predicted :)

:lol: Even better news is that they predict that our defence won't concede a single goal all season... and that our whole squad will be joint top scorer (with no goals)...
At least they don't claim it's output from some new AI system.

Dagenham & Redbridge will be furious, they're going down with zero goals scored after spending all that money on Andy Carroll!

I joked with some of my football friends during Saturdays game whether we might stay up this season by drawing all our games 0-0. Now seems that it was in fact true.
