Last time I saw Frickley play was a 4-4 draw at Worcester City about 25 years ago and City scored 3 in the last 2 minutes to snatch the draw.

Going to watch Chorleigh at Curzon tonight, should be interesting.

Think you got your money's worth at that one

Don't knock your performance. Buxton did the double over us last season and are tough to beat. They usually finish just below the play-offs so that's a good marker for where you are at after the first game in a newer league.
How did Si Garner play?

Glad I didn't get there later anyroad...it was 2-1 to Chorley after 4 minutes!! Very impressive attacking performance from Chorley, and Shelton Payne looks class, but I still think they won't have it their own way once the pitches start to cut up and teams realise they just need to put five in midfield to stifle them.

0-0 draw at Frickley, Halifax played poor in the first half, took a while to get used to playing on the side of a hill.

2nd half we improved a lot, brought on a couple of players, had 3 or 4 one on ones with the keeper and didnt make the keeper work that often with them which is criminal.

we tend to create enough chances to win 3 or 4 games we just dont take enuogh of them.

the only difference between sides this season and last season is the teams are a bit more organised. our keeper was mainly a spectator ronight as he was for large parts of last season.

we have made the transition up a league pretty well i think, 4 points from 6, the signs are there once the new players have settled in more, plus we still have our top scorer from last season out injured and the best player in our team is still injured as well. the best midfeilder in the league that is Scott Phelan them 2 players will add a lot when they return to the side.

Good piece.

There's going to be a lot of people hoping Crawley fail this season.

Without a doubt, and I think it's completely justified to be quite honest - can't even imagine what would possess a club to allow Evans or any of his cronies to take control.

Garner, well he again showed his versatility in this game, he played at Left back to start with then when we were pushing on for a winner in the last 15 minutes, he took up more of an attacking role.

he is still beding into the new team, has shown some good potential so far.

his versatility will defonately be an advantage to us during the cold winter months where injuries will be a problem

I won't be shedding (m)any tears when it all goes wrong.

FA Cup - Prel
Salford City 2 Chorley 1

Leigh 1 Runcorn 0....and that Chorley result just tops it off

It's all about the league for Chorley this season

And to back up my previous post Chorley got back to winning ways with a 4-1 win in the league yesterday against Radcliffe Borough.Jack Dorney now has 10 goals in 4 games this season.Good crowd of 784 were on to watch the Magpies go 2 points clear at the top of the table.

Brodie sold to Crawley for a quite unbelievable £300k. £100k more than Stevenage got for the considerably better Morison. Think will be shocked when they get Brodes in training. He's a very good goal poacher but beyond that he is very limited. Can't really head the ball and his control is shocking. Having said that we will miss him as we now don't have a true goalscorer in the team. £300k is too much to turn for a player who is limited and out of contract next summer. Wish him all the best.

Far to much for the lad, we had to sell him.

Brodes really is a fantastic lad who i've been in the company of hi a number of times and he really did love York but unfortunately for the lad i think he's a bit of a marked man this year both physically being marked and the ref's knowing he dives etc so i only predicted a 15+ season from him this year even at York.

A club like ours can't turn down that money, but we're a minor party in this story.

Crawley. That's over £750k they've spent on players alone this summer. We were in for Matt Tubbs as well as them, but Foyle is on record as saying we can't compete with their "silly wages". It's a house of cards. Boston fans know how the next act of this play goes.

You believe he's up to no good again?

Evans in particular? I'm sure I wouldn't have a clue (or the lack of awareness to post allegations on a public messageboard). But the whole set-up at Crawley, frankly, stinks. And lest I'm accused of sour grapes, I thought that prior to the Brodie move as well.

So how was non-league day for you? Barely two thousand at the Crescent, despite the official attendance of over 2300. Hardly surprising given the standard of football. Truly dreadful.

Quality 60 seconds though to be fair

non leeague day was great for FC Halifax, 3-2 win against Mickleover.

FC United getting hammered today makes it all better too.

big game Tuesday now, Northwich who are top atm visit the shay for a big big game, a winfor Halifax and we will be right back around the top

Worked for me

Just read that Ilkeston Town have become the latest non-league club to be wound up.
