Column 17 - Draw with Rovers felt like a defeat
WE played really well in last weekend’s game against high-flying Forest Green Rovers and there were more positives than negatives to take from it.

Column 15 - A long and hard week with Barrow
THIS week has felt like the longest week ever. Last Saturday’s game against Guiseley didn’t start off the way we had planned.

Column 14 - Life as a journo!
THE sickening feeling from last Saturday’s last-gasp equalizing goal has just about gone now, and all the focus is on tomorrow’s massive FA Cup tie against Guiseley.

Column 7 - Let’s build on vital first win

Column 2 - Annoyed at injury
I’M writing this week’s column from my ‘sick bed’. The last pre-season game against Bolton didn’t exactly finish how I was hoping.

Column 3 - A nice solid start
TWO points from the opening two fixtures of the season is not too bad, plus we have the added bonus of not yet conceding a goal.

Bouncing back
IT’S amazing how quickly a week goes by. Tomorrow is game day again and another tough test for us in the form of Alfreton.

New community board created
FOUR straight defeats is not a run of results we wanted. But, as I wrote last week, it’s important to look at the season as a whole, not just the last four games.

It’s still been a good season
THE play-off dream is fading, with two defeats away from home to Wrexham and Cambridge leaving us with an almost impossible task. (2 comments)

The good, the bad & the ugly
IT was good week, bad week for the club, with a great 2-1 win away at Kidderminster on Saturday followed by a 1-0 home loss against bottom-of-the-table Bath City on Tuesday.

A new dawn
THIS has probably been one of the hardest weeks I’ve known at the club, with the news Darren Sheridan has moved on.

Possible friendly
WE’VE had a good week with the great away win at Tamworth and the battling home draw against a top Grimsby Town side.

Big games abound
IT was a big game last week against Harrogate at home. Financially, we need these cup runs to help us through seasons. Okay, we don’t budget for them, but as you go through a season and injuries occur and new players need to be brought in, costs change.

Get in the spirit
A DRAW against Ebbsfleet last week wasn’t the result we wanted, but it kept the points ticking over.
