What an amazing comeback by the Town when all appeared lost.

Apart from a precious point, this also shows the strength of character in the team, and the determination to fight until the final whistle. Shame we dropped points, but well done to the lads in getting something from the game. Will be interested to hear what other Towners have to say about the match and our performance.
 

Let's hope we carry the positives from this match into the Harrow game on Tuesday.......assuming the pitch is playable!

 

[big guy]

thought town played well in first half pitty couldn't take advantage of the gales in second halfbut enjoyed seeing two late goals go our way !!!!!!

still needs defence to be tighter hopes second goal well taken and cracking last goal

Second half was probably the worst football weather I've ever seen that hasn't led to an abandonment.

 

And before anyone asks, no I didn't get photos of the comeback. The camera went away as soon as the first few drops fell.
