I am aware of a bug with fitness, as it isn't affecting anyone (its stuck at 100) nothing will be altered at this stage. The game engine writer is looking into it.

Hartlepool United 1 - 1 Scunthorpe United

Foreman opened the scoring early before Dawson dragged his mob back over the line for a spirited 1-1 draw. Even stevens for possession, we moved it around great but would have loved a bit more penetration and to just unlock that killer ball to split their defense who stood up really. The dual 10's didn't work as well this week, at least not in the way they took over the game against Buxton and nearly carried us through. But I can accept a point from these opening two games.

Boston Utd 0 - 0 Dagenham & Redbridge

"Bore Draw"


Boston United and Dagenham & Redbridge played out a 0-0 draw at the Jakemans Community Stadium in the FMFA Conference League. Boston edged possession and created the better chances, with Kieran Donnelly at the heart of their attack, forcing multiple fine saves from the Daggers keeper Ben Nightingale. The Dagenham goalkeeper was in inspired form, denying efforts from Donnelly, Hill, and Alonzi to keep his side level. Dagenham threatened on the counter, with Wilson going closest late on, but Chadwick produced a superb stop. Injuries to Kalambayi and Marsh disrupted the visitors, while A. Lankshear’s commanding display earned Man of the Match.

Buxton 5 - 3 Leamington

Doing our best here to go from first to worst. A thrilling tie, but our keeper was absolutely woeful and will be dropped for the next game. We dominated possession, had more shots and scored three goals away from home and it wasn't enough to get us three points.

Well played Harry - absolute cracker of a game!!

Darlington 1-1 Bromsgrove Sporting

As even a game as you can get and we did well to stay in it having played the second half with 10 men. We managed to get the equaliser before the RC and then hold on to take the point.

We have started the season with two away games and taken four points from them so that stands us in a good position for things to come. Early days but the team seem to be gelling nicely so far and hopefully we can be more involved in the title mix come the end of this season
