About time redmond delivered which he did for 20 mins.
Hooper could just be the January signing up front we need.
Grant needs a goal and is clearly not a winger.
Would swap their centre half for our captain any day. Jennings again proving that he is not a left back.
Newby always busy and would like him alongside the tireless young.
Crowd so much better than the predictions from the doom and gloom merchants.
Will be out of the bottom 4 with a win Saturday fingers crossed.
Yes very good value

Well done Keates some bold changes another good win. 3 wins in 4 has vastly improved things, bringing another 7 or 8 teams into the mix.

Nice of Hooper to show up this week
Decent crowd although 4000 down from this time last year and it was like a library at times
A much needed three points but still in a worse position than we were when Keates took over

I thought Chorley were decent going forward and it’ll be no walk in the park for the reverse fixture

Even if they’re “too similar” they both need to be on the pitch. Grant is awful and has done nothing for months.

We need to turn our away form on its head and get results at Maidenhead and Chorley. If we can get a decent return from those 2 matches (is 4 points too much to ask for?) then win the two home games after that, then we should be creeping into the mid table pack.
4 points would be lovely, we really can’t afford to lose to Maidenhead, after bringing them into the mix, otherwise there’ll be a 5 point gap to them

If both teams had taken their chances it could have been 8-4 to us. We should have bossed the games after the second goal but we allowed them to get back at us, Other teams will not be as generous as Chorley, I can't see them surviving in this league on their display today, Their ex Wrexham players were woeful so we did well to let them go. Overall I am happy with the three points we do now have goal scorers so hopefully they will stay on target for the rest of the season. We have to take our chances even scoring three was not enough today.

Default Re: Chorley reaction

Bold changes by Keates to both personnel and formation.

Brought in were Summerfield, Hooper and Reid at right back - biggest surprise to me was Patrick being dropped to the bench.

No sign of Wright in the squad (assume still ill) and Tollitt nowhere to be seen.

Came out of the blocks fast - scored two early goals provided by Redmond and dispatched by Hooper.

Chorley looked the worst team to come to the Racecourse - very poor and there for the taking - hardly got out of their half BUT I felt after we went 2 - 0 up we eased off and gradually Chorley were allowed to get their foot back into the game and emerged stronger as the first half progressed.

A number of chances missed by Chorley and a poor intervention to concede a needless penalty just before half time could have proved costly - thankfully Holroyd's spot kick was poor and very weak allowing Lainton to save it to his right.

Second half we should have killed the game off - however, despite numerous chances to put the game out of sight we didn't see them off until Patrick came on, scored and could easily have had another two.

Some good attacking support play by Reid from the right back position who showed some good moves - but defensively was never under pressure.

Eventually saw the game out after Massanka scored a late consolation.

The Chorley centre back (6) Meppen - Walter was a cumbersome donkey and we could have turned him inside out if we had got the ball down on the floor and run at him more - but no use putting balls into the air with his height.

Lesson of the day - they are poor but if allowed to play and given time on the ball they can hurt us.

Attendance : 4,784 away support 224.

ref Tom Reeves who dished out yellows to Summerfield, Hooper and another needless one to Pearson.

3 massive vital points but another mention has got to go to old boy Danny Wright who scored a 95th minute equalizer for Solihull at Chesterfield - his goal could prove as vital as Hooper's brace.

All in all - 3 points, job done and it pulls us much closer to the pack above us especially free falling Dagenham & Torquay United who are dropping like a stone - both have to visit us - it's all to play for !

PS Rob Lainton needs to improve his kicking and keep the ball on the green thing - it's called a pitch.
