WUM???? The WUM’s on those posting ridiculously high match ratings straight after the match.

Id be more asking why the defence gave him the freedom of the pitch to get that shot in.

Maybe correct about Dibble but there is no point having a go at the lad, he's the second choice 'Keeper. He has made a few saves that have kept us in the two games this season, and he has let in a couple of goals that have put us on the back foot that a 'better' Keeper may have saved.

Short of spending money on a top draw back-up for Lainton, maybe at the expense of one of our attacking players, I don't know what more could be done....It's just bad luck.

I know they are only brief highlights but it seems a draw was a fair result.

It probably was. Haven't posted since the match or gone into the player ratings stuff (though possibly we should have used more than one sub and possibly Ruthers wasn't the one sub to bring on and that might be inexperience on Yosser's part) as was so gutted by how the game ended up.

Pre game we might have taken a point and taking the game as a whole, both sides had 5 or 6 genuinely decent chances, so a draw was fair. I agree if you were a neutral, which I'm not and we're not it was a very good game to watch.

It's just the way it ended that means we were all angry/upset at the time and why we think it's 2 points lost.

I'm presuming their second goal took a deflection.

Lovely finish by Grant.

[northwalian dragon]

That’s a fantastic run, touch, shape and finish from Grant

Chesterfield have Jalal as first choice and Coddington on the bench.

Given Lainton’s appalling injury record I’m surprised at both giving him a 2 year deal and not having a good backup whose comfortable at this level.

Rather than looking to blame Dibble have a look at the marking in the box for BOTH goals conceded - it simply does not exist - red shirts are in there but not picking up a man - given far too much freedom and space to get shots away.
Especially when we should have been going all out to play the game out, break it up, slow it down, disrupt momentum with barely 10 minutes to go.
