    It was cakes that with Small and Clayton we were too defensive.

    Clayton’s injury allowed Smallwood to go back in his natural position and for Walker to drop in to the 10 position.

    It made us more attacking because we could then brings Banks into the 11and that’s what it was clear needed to happen

    Looking at the penalty again, we were somewhat fortunate that the ref didn't order the penalty to be retaken. There was at least one City player (Crich) who had already run into the box prior to Angol striking the ball! Phew!

    Their manager was very honest in his post-match interview, even if the interviewer barely let him finish his sentences, but he was complimentary of us. More interestingly, Angol is not their designated penalty taker and he probably shouldn't have taken it

    Talent to burn, fights every lost cause and tough as teak - re. the latter, if you know anything about the council estate he hails from in Edinburgh, it's clear why!

    I hadn’t realised Bank’s role in Cookies goal, back in defence , great ball out,two passes and it’s in the net!

    You wrote us off - didnt rate our business. While singing the praises of Swindon, Mansfield and Salford. You had no logic behind your comments, it was 'just because'.

    What logic did you have? You thought we would win the league with ease. However, currently we are in a play off spot and still might not make it.

    Look, nothing but automatic is a failure for the season.

    Promotion through the play offs is failure then. Even though we end up in the same place as autos

    Well, I hope you are right. Let’s see.

    No, promotion is failure.

    Didn't you repeatably say the aim is not promotion this season as its a free hit? What has changed your mind?

    No, I said this season is a free hit. So, if we get promoted then buzzing but if don’t the no excuses next season. As we will be champions.

    I think he may have put in a comma where one was not required, ie - 'no promotion is a failure' rather than 'no, promotion is a failure'.
    Even Fordy can't regard promotion as failure, surely?
