and if he could stay fit he wouldn't be playing in League 1.

 

Utter delusion.

That's like me saying if my penis was 5 inches bigger I'd be a pornstar. It genuinely baffles me how highly some people rate James Wilson based on so very little.

Its those sorts of performances and results that give you hope.  Whether that's false hope or not, we'll know at the end.

We put a shift in today and looked like we wanted it.  We got thr ball forward a lot quicker than usual and got two goals out of it.

Ojo showed why he's such a miss to us when he's out.  Picked the ball up off the back three and used the ball well.  For me it was either him or willo for mom rather than chislett.

We've also had a slice of luck, their lad should have made it 3.1 and game over.

But we deserved that luck today and we've scored through an og and a pen.

With a bit more belief and a centre forward or two who knows, we could've won.

Carry on building on performances like that and we've got a shot at it.

Also rams home how much the team have been shafted from above in January.  

IF we stay up this season, that will be in spite of our supreme dof.

Just home quick check in on OVF and there is more comments first half about Stevenage commentary on iFollow than the game 🙈

I think I’ll leave reading the 2nd half comments

James Wilson can't play as a lone striker; he's neither strong enough to hold the ball up or quick enough to get behind teams. They've got to gamble on a out of contract striker. As we've got no threat the defence is always under pressure not to concede.  Any manager will struggle with our current forward options. 

We really didn't deserve a point. We played quite well for 20 minutes, then they pushed a centrehalf into the space Chislett was using well. Thereafter we never really looked dangerous.  A fortunate penalty but he did look to move his body to the flight of the ball, so if it did hit his arm technically correct.  At least before Christmas we could keep hold of the ball, now we struggle to do that.

Sadly our big players on the sidelines are going to miss too many games. If Garrity, Uch and Clark were likely to be back by the end of the month I think we'd be in with a chance.  They won't be.

Garrity has done his Achilles...

Who have said that 

In previous threads some have said we have 2 games in hand and we will win them - whether it was to make themselves feel better or just hoping.  

We all hope we could, but need that experienced manager in to rally the troops and we probably could stand a chance of getting points out of the remaining games.

Wasn’t a pretty game as I predicted. Overall a draw probably was the fair result but that 15-20 mins after half time was no where near good enough not sure what was said at the break. Point could be massive come what may 👍🏻 

Stevenage did make 3 subs at half time, which probably explains what happened.

Possibly 👍🏻 don’t think we come out the blocks either which didn’t help. Half time probably come at the worse time for us 

[Vtid]

It’s a point added to the tally which has to be a positive. I feel so much better for that penalty going in 😅 enjoy your night Valiants & stay safe 💙

Bar a mad 10 minutes I thought that was a decent performance against a top 6 side. First half we looked a different team to the one that’s played the last few games.

Lopata won everything in that first half and thought Mighten was lively when he came on.

Questionable pen decision but we’ll take them all day long - plenty have gone against us this season!

Wonder if he will get a life time ban now for coming onto the pitch to have a chat with the ref like Ted did.  🤣

Lopata was on crutches at the end 🙈 

He was very good 1st half

Because I have a pair of working eyes probably. He's not a lone striker though and expecting him to play as one is ridiculous. But here we are with no other option. And your penis could be a 10 incher but pointless if you can't keep it up.
