It just goes to show, that we are a proper non league club now.
The next step is to go semi pro !

The media bigged Dennis up which won't of helped.

Has anyone considered the fact that we were playing Torquay? Had the fixture been in reverse would we not have expected them to make an early cautious decision?
Those criticising have probably never sat on a committee where you have to make such decisions.
Having a pop at the committee over this is pathetic. There are plenty of other areas to criticise but not this IMO.

Ouch! That's a real bummer.
Only ever travelled to 2 games that were called off. Huddersfield, where I parked up and asked for directions in the fog, only to be told it was just across the road and Braintree called off 1 hour before Kick off. Went to the rearranged game to see a 5 - 1 win.
I'm sure there are many similar stories from fans out there.

Gives us chance to get Pearson & Carra fully fit, could be a blessing in disguise.

Well said Halkynred my thoughts exactly
