How are the 2 new boys Williams and Archer doing?

Sounds like the new lad Seager is getting loads of chances for them, Have we considered signing a striker?

0-2 to Torquay

Ash!

FT 0-2

Really hard to follow the game due to the commentary issues and the Twitter updates werent great

Well done to the young GK coming off the bench and saving a penalty!

Three points is all that matters. Hard work with Williams and Ash getting the goals. The sub goalkeeper signed last week was the real hero saving a penalty.

Weymouth match rearranged for 5th December, at least we can have a rest and clear up some injuries(?).

Next match Yeovil at home in The FA Trophy next Saturday......I would rather win our league matches, forget anything else.

Yes loads. And like Seager who is a PART TIME player with a good job that left Dorking as unable to commit to the travelling and extra training involved in a National League.

Why would he consider throwing his life away to turn Full time with Torquay for??

After an unsettling week where events off the pitch took over a welcome 3 points today and a clean sheet well earned.
In the play off positions just 4 pts off second. Nice to end the week with a bit of positivity.

Yes after everything 6 points out of 9 is actually a satisfactory return in the circumstances

Jeepers !!
A touch of cordiality has broken out . Steady on or we you will ruin what is a perfectly good toxic platform for mutual destruction.
Just joking by the way.

Really pleased for Bradley Ash, an assist a goal and a yellow card lol feel he’s a good team player, the sort we need.

A good second half after a poor first one. Shame we can't play for 90 minutes.
Brilliant cross and finish for the first goal(Ash/Williams) Thought the pen was harsh,
not Collins best day by any means, or Stobbs.
New lad Archer improved after a slow start and looked useful second half. Tomlinson and Donnelan excellent today. New keeper didn't have a lot to do but what a great stop for the penalty. Hall got in 100 minutes which was encouraging, with so many players out it was a good win. Assume Dolan wasn't 100 % though he was still on the bench. Pleased Ash got his goal, will do him good, he worked hard today.

GJ thoughts



Ethon on debut win (speaks well for first appearance)

Not Collins or Stobbs best day but Stobbs still gets an assist! Ash hasn’t scored for weeks and gets a goal and is a hero and everyone is pleased for him! Most of the goals this season have come through Stobbs one way another but according to some Stobbs is overrated

I feel the highlights emphasize that without Jarvis good delivery into the 6 yard box is critical and so it proved as both goals from Williams and Ash came from balls which were hard to defend.
In NLS crossing high balls into the box do not work and are much easier to defend.
Theo Williams looked confident on the ball and Archer looked keen. I thought the push in his back which was very clear on Video was a certain pen as opposed to the pen Havant got were Collins was very harshly adjudged to have fouled his opponent. However I was not at the game and our fans were at the other end of the ground.
This was always going to be tough and I hope this win will give the squad a bit more confidence for the next 6 weeks after which we may have everyone fit for 2024.
