BE POSTIVE, We can compete with any team in the league we should have beaten Didcot and Farnborough. We just seem to have lost the knack of scoring but bear in mind yesterday we were without key players, Saulsbury, Woodrulfe, Gardner, Mcsporran. Justin and Mike are doing a great job for City, keep the faith !!

: Why was it not a surprise that City lost and
: why the assumption Bell had a bad game?
: Maybe you are a fan of another club locally
: so wish City would lose, which is fair
: enough I suppose and do you play in the same
: position as Bell and if he plays poorly you
: might get a game next week? So purely a
: selfish point? so confusing these random
: posts.

: The top four positions have rotated quite a
: lot this season and it would be no surprise
: if there were a few more changes to come,
: but on this showing Farnborough are the more
: likely team to replace Fleet. City have a
: better team than we've seen for years; they
: generally defend well and play some good
: football, but their results against the top
: three show they are still falling a little
: short of champion standard: we have yet to
: win a match against a really good team this
: season. It always looked as if February
: would be the make-or-break month as far as
: the title is concerned, but we are still in
: with a good shout of a play-off place if we
: don't lose confidence after our first
: back-to-back league defeats this season.
:
: We had our chances: in particular, two very
: good ones in the first five minutes. Oh, to
: have been 2-0 up at that stage! But Boro
: weathered those over-the-top balls and the
: foraging of our very lively new signing
: Michael Lyon, gradually imposed themselves
: and in the end were worthy winners, despite
: there being a bit of luck about both goals.
: (Maybe the second was a deliberate piece of
: brilliance, but to me it looked like a cross
: which drifted in!)They also hit the post
: with an effort by Saunders, who was by some
: way the best player on the pitch; we don't
: have a player who can consistently strike
: thirty-yard plus balls with such accuracy
: and vision.
:
: Still, the Boro boss said we were the best
: team they've played so far, and we made them
: work hard; we could play less well than this
: and still beat most of the teams in this
: division, as long as we soon start to find
: the net again. I hope 'Jock' and Jon are fit
: again soon, but in the meantime want to
: congratulate Justin on finding such an
: excellent, hard-working front man as Lyon,
: who held the all up really well and showed
: lots of good linking touches.
