One shot on goal...one goal for Brackley.,
It's a funny old game Saint
-
I'll let you know when I've
defrosted woken up.

If Jones learnt to head a ball we could have won this won! Shows how weak our squad is with 3 decent players missing.About time Den to ditch a few players and scout.Get out himself and look for some decent players.
Merry Xmas

A really frustrating game. We really need to start turning these draws into wins. We don't look far off being a play off side but need to be beating poor sides like Brackley. 3 key players missing today and that told. Thomas and fallah not good enough in my opinion. Worrying thing for me is the attendance??
-
Ref should be arrested for taking money by deception. There is no way he knows what he's doing. CRAP
Nothing up front. Thomas and Fallah can go and so can Jones.
-
Well that was definatley two points dropped, we HAVE to beat sides like Brackley at home because they were poor.
Boston never really got going first half, missing Garner in the middle, Holingsworth just doesn't make the right decisions with the ball. Jones needs to score asap.
Should have won this game easily.
McGhee looked good as did Newsh. And yes the ref was bloody woeful!
-
Jone's work rate such as holding the ball up and bringing others into play is right up there with the best in this division so not sure why some are slating him. Yes, he needs a goal badly but the more people moan the more it will get harder.
Since we've had him back in the team, we have managed to hold the ball up thus bringing others into the game and creating more chances.

Take 3 players out of anyone's starting line up, and they aren't going to be as strong. Look at how City play without Aguero/Kompany, Liverpool without Suarez/Sturridge...
-
Agree but we ain't Liverpool or Man City!
-
Southwell and Garner were obviously missed, but we also lacked the quality passes and finesse of Tempest.
Good to see McGhee and Newsh linking up for the equalising goal, the two players they replaced did not look up to the standard.
Fallah might be worth another chance but the other one did nothing much except lose possession, although there was an early long-range attempt that was well wide.
Jones put in a decent performance and was unlucky not to get a goal.
Not sure who got MOTM, but for me it was Dixon in midfield.

Could not agree more. Why there are so many moaning about him is beyond me. Today he covered every inch and had to do it all up front as Thomas and Fallha were and are a waste of space. Missing the players we were particularly the late withdrawal of Tempest we were always going to find it difficult and to be honest I was pleased with a draw.

Glad we got the goal in the end as it felt like it was going to "one of those days" as it wasn't happening for us. Alot has been made of the missing players who have been key for us recently and rightly so as they were missed today. Poor defending for their goal, five attackers in the area and only three Boston players resulting in a free header and a simple goal - maybe this wouldn't have happened if the captain was on the pitch? This apart Brackley offered nothing and were a poor side being kept in the game by the clown in black who was woeful. Of the players to come in Hollingsworth did well as usual providing plenty of energy although lacks the presence and experience of Garner, Thomas isn't strong enough or quick enough and I can't see him being here all season, Fallah showed nice touches like usual but lacks substance - don't remember him putting a single cross in despite playing as a winger. McGhee and Newsham coming on gave us another gear. McGhee was full of running and a constant threat with good deliveries - didn't show any signs of the injury and Newsham was back to his brilliant best, showed fantastic control to bring down a cross from the right, turn his man and shoot on the turn on target going into the bottom corner denied by the save of the match, then got the leveller from "Newsh range" showing he hasn't lost his awareness and instinct which have scored him so many goals for us. The sooner we can get Newsham and Southwell both fit and playing together the better with McGhee, Dixon and Felix offering the pace and creativity from Midfield.
Shocking attendance today less than 900 home fans hopefully a decent turn out Boxing day.

Dixon did get the MOTM, and fully deserved.

DG it's time to send JONE's back to SPALDING (if they will have him) and cross him and RAYMENT off your xmas card list for taking the P out of you.

Silly girl

THAT'S going a bit to far (oxo) to say he's a silly girl.
-
I'm sure he was referring to you, and I agree with him!!
-
Jones is a goal of been as good as he ever has been, since he came back we have been able to hold the ball better. Earlier in the season we just hammered the ball up the field just for it to come straight back but least we now have a hold to bring others in. Have to agree i didnt see anything from any of the 3 replacements to keep them. And echo others its good to see Newsham back doing what he does best
-

With respect Carl why did Brackley need to offer much ? They scored an easy goal from an amateurish bit of defending and for the rest of the first half all we did was uff and puff without creating anything notable in terms of goal scoring opportunities. It was very much the same second half until Newsham and McGee came on. They linked up well and showed what we're missing from our game. Up until we equalised can you really bemoan Brackley for sitting on 0-1 advantage away from home given their poor form. The impetuous should of been with us to break then down and attack them meaningfully which for most of season we've struggled to do against weaker teams. Yesterday highlighted that with a few injuries / suspensions our squad seriously lacks depth and beyond our best 11 we aren't capable of getting them much needed points to reach the play offs. Yes the ref should of had a word in the first half about their time wasting and possibly cautioned in the second half but in no way did that result in us getting a draw with a mediocre team. Yesterday really did feel like two points dropped.

I disagree. It did have an affect on the game and more to the point the result. The game was that stop and start that even the great Barca wouldn't have been able to get into top gear.
-
Thought the goal we gave away from a corner yesterday was woeful when I saw it happen live, but after watching the video of it I've changed my mind.........It was far worse than that! Too many goals against us this season have been from corners, so work on it DG.
-
Its why i had it down for a 1-1. Brackley are not quite the mugs they were of a couple if months ago and without certain key players i always thought it was going to be a bit tough.
Don't think the ref is to blame either and yes whilst Jones is quite decent in holding the ball up. Forwards need to score and he never really looks like he is going to!
Please hurry up and prove me wrong!

Hard to cope with the spate of injuries. Southwell and Tempest have been first choice up front and left wing and their replacements Newsh and McGhee weren't fit enough to start the game. Thomas looked well off the pace and Fallah has the style but not the substance. Hopefully Tempest's injury isn't a bad one and we have more options with Garner back and Newsham and McGhee hopefully now fit enough to start games.
