5th Win in a Row

[maniac]

Goals in 3rd, 23rd, 42nd and 85 mins. Brotherton man of the match.

[Jen]

Advanced apologies for pedancy, but Jamie scored his first in the sixth minute, and, officially, Karly Akehurst was MOTM.

Good game, particularly in the first half.

[jim]

Pompey beat the Mancs and Worthing get 5th in a row. Just need Barnsley to upset Chelski and my day is complete!

[maniac]

SORRY JEN FOR BEING 3MINS EARLY, ALSO SHOULD HAVE SAID JAMIE MY MAN OF MATCH.

[Brad]

CHELSKI LOST.....LETS PARTY !!!!!!!!

Plus of course, we won and utterly destroyed Chatams finest (?) Chavs. Beautiful header from Brothers, as good as bens vs molesy??

[jim]

Beautiful from both teams in red today, 2 fine games and 2 marvellous results. I love football!

First goal was actaully 2 minutes and 45 seconds. I had my stopwatch on it, so 3 mins is correct.

Brilliant entertainment especially the first half. Shows the benefit of fielding a settled side, especially the back four who can only benefit by playing together week in and week out.

Downside is that the team have suspensions coming up and we picked, I think 3, silly bookings. The other worry is that there are still too many loan players who may leave and return to their other club, but if we can keep this team together without too many team changes, who knows how high they can go.

I can see where ur coming from there brummie, although on the wings, we have pullers to replace skinnner and/or hughes, and in my opinion, Roy Pook when he returns should slot into the wings, as he has looked threatening when getting in those positions.

Yes, because of our mutual friend Hatzidakis, Ben will be out, so this may be the time for this Ashley Rees i believe it is, to join Jamie up front , as we have very limitde options, unless enzo plats lb with ollie up front, or andy a plays there when he returns.

I have highlights of the match on my phone. I'll upload them soon.

[Worthing Scottish]

The first half was the best I've seen a Worthing team play for a LONG time, possibly even as far back as that 4-1 January win at home to Fisher (over two years ago!) that pre-empted the long losing run that we carried through the whole of last season.

Brotherton was immense, and Hughes was very lively out wide (even if it did look like he was wearing a pair of bananas)

[jim]

What's a "neuk"?

[Sparky Rebel]

Excellent news, well done to all the Rebels lads ;D

Attendance of only 216

[Adam]

We were so busy celebrating pompey's win that we missed the first few mins so the goal must have been within the first 3.

We were excellent, in the second half its a shame Rikki had a rush of blood as we really didnt deserve to concede a goal. Hughes really gave us something else, stayed wide and looks really useful. Brotherton just gets better and better.

five in a row, and with the added benefit of sittingbourne winning (after lots of suspense on the PA!) we really SHOULD be finishing in that top 5 now.

A good day, all in all.
