THE TT VERDICT: Southport 1-2 Torquay United 11th Mar 17

March 11, 2017.Reading time 4 minutes.

Summary: Two teams devoid of confidence, desperately trying to dig themselves out of their respective ruts. Despite the game having such a crucial amount riding on it, for long periods it was bizarrely similar to a testimonial; perhaps because both teams simply couldn’t afford to lose. That being said, a few moments of quality shone […]

THE TT VERDICT: Torquay United 1-2 Guiseley 4th Mar 17

March 4, 2017.Reading time 3 minutes.

Summary: Snatching defeat again from the jaws of victory. We hit new lows by not only losing a lead, but losing the lead to a poor team; who spend much of the second half with 10 men. The two Guiseley goals are totally avoidable and it’s despair and crisis time at Plainmoor. Meanwhile fans un-rest is heard […]

THE TT VERDICT: United 2-3 Sutton 25th Feb 17

February 25, 2017.Reading time 4 minutes.

Summary: Its a miserable wet and windy afternoon at Plainmoor, as we fail to capitalise on an outfield player in Sutton’s goal (you couldn’t make it up could you!), and end up losing our composure and concentration in a depressing second half. Sutton have more skill and know-how, taking home the three points and putting […]

THE TT VERDICT: Barrow 0-0 United 18th Feb 17

February 18, 2017.Reading time 3 minutes.

Summary: A conservative first half matched by a free-flowing second, as United restricted 5th placed Barrow to only a handful of chances. Supplement that performance with some clinical finishing and we could arguably have taken the spoils ourselves. In the end a hard-earned valuable point. “We’re a second half team” continues to be my view from the […]

THE TT VERDICT – United 1-1 Macclesfield Town 11th Feb 17

February 11, 2017.Reading time 2 minutes.

Summary: Macclesfield dominate the first half, as United struggle to match the away team in all areas. Nico’s boys do improve after the break; almost nicking a winner near the end. A decent point from a match low on quality, United have to start games better! Player ratings (out of 10): Moore 5 Hodgkiss 6 Anderson 7 […]

THE TT VERDICT: United 3-1 Gateshead – 28th Jan 17

January 29, 2017.Reading time 2 minutes.

Summary: Two contrasting halfs, a dull 1st half where United just about deserved a lead; followed by a pulsating 2nd with another pen given away, lucky escapes and celebratory winning goals! A game that could have gone either way, but a welcome step back in the right direction for Nico. Player ratings (out of 10): […]

THE TT VERDICT: United 1-2 Woking – 14th Jan 17

January 14, 2017.Reading time 2 minutes.

Another grim day at Plainmoor, as we go down early to a skilful Woking team and never recover. Far too many below-par performances, whilst the crowd get on Nico’s back regarding Brett Williams (who does manage to score!). Players and Ratings (out of 10):- Brendan Moore – 5 Lathaniel Rowe-Turner 4, Sean McGinty 5, Ben […]
