Famous Aggborough Soup. Water sprinkler farce. Happy memories of visits.

They’ve hit form again after a ‘dodgy’ February.
A 5-0 away win at 13th placed SS yesterday.
Thirteen days previously they recorded a six to nil win away at Farsley.
It’s looking as if it’ll be a tight game.
I’m going 1-1

[TwoWrights]

Decent club house.

Last time at Aggborough was for the Worcester City FA Cup penalty extravaganza.

Can’t make it Tuesday – work interfering with life again. Will have to watch the livestream.

Tough ask; however kiddy have been inconsistent this year and it doesn’t sound like it will take much for their fans to get on Brown’s back.

I would be happy with a point, although I can’t imagine many in the squad will be entering the game with that mentality. A win and you’ve knocked them out the title race. Beestin/Whitehall will Be integral to our chances of leaving with something.

[Rene Artois]

Kiddy 21/20
Draw 42/20
Scunny 50/20

Let’s hope we upset the bookies tomorrow evening.

Getting the favourite beat doesn’t upset bookies normally.

True.

[Sanfran49]

Got to remember they will be scared of slipping up.

[IronIronIron]

A big game, and a big performance needed. This could be a turning point.

I think we can squeeze it. 2-1 to the good guys

Both Kidderminster and Curzon have to win tomorrow night, we want to win but it’s not a disaster if we don’t , all the pressure is on both home teams tomorrow which is to our advantage, indeed if we lose tomorrow we are still in a good position, if they lose or even draw then their position with games running out is weaker.

[Rene Artois]

We need to not lose. A 2-0 win for them would see someone with a superior GD to us for the first time this season.
If they win their game in hand then they and Chester will both be just 2 points behind us.
I’ll be happy with a 1-1… ecstatic with a win.
Beat these tonight and Chester on Saturday and the remainder of the fixtures shouldn’t be too challenging.
Six points from the next two games and we’re definitely champions.

[another fed up fan]

always a tough place to go and get anything would be happy with a draw
Safe travels to everyone going.
1-1

[PhilAnders]

I think we might see the return of 5 at the back tonight…but hopefully only in the last 20 minutes if we are a goal up or hanging on for a draw! And if that’s the case, I for one won’t be critical!

[ironfromafar]

got my alarm set for 2:30am … must confess to not being overly confident or optimistic about the next two crunch fixtures .. we always seem to bottle it in front of a big crowd.

Kiddy … Im predicting an open game with us avoiding defeat being acceptable keeping the run going. 1 point incoming 1-1

Chester … not easy to call with a possible 8k plus crowd hopefully getting to enjoy a cracking game … 3 pointS incoming 3-2 just not sure who too.

[Deereyme66]

Kiddie looked the most likely to score first half though Beck was unlucky with his decent header. Evenly poised.

[Deereyme66]

We’re a yard off the pace.

[Deereyme66]

Hell was Clunan thinking for the aimless long free kick when Beestin was begging for it chipped in unmarked? Too many players lethargic and sloppy. No urgency. A few opportunities but not created enough.

[Rene Artois]

got my alarm set for 2:30am

Oh dear!

[Rene Artois]

Pantomime!

[BigLeftToe]

Shocking performance, we never turn up in the big games when it really matters.

Beck was winning almost everything in the air, so what did we do? Take him off, put Boycey up front a few minutes later and just lump aimless balls up to him…of which he won bugger all.

[Deereyme66]

Was hopeful we might come out second half and shape up a bit. The opposite.

[cassidystash]

Brief summary:-
One team played football the other played hoofball.
Comfortably second best.
Got what we deserved.

[backofthenet18]

Roberts had a quiet game and other than Beck header we never looked like scoring as often the case when he does.
Clunans delivery at set pieces was dreadful.

[Siderite]

I hope Rene gets the bookies’ odds out for iron414 to make a post over the next 48 hours after a few months of silence.

[TheJuryeffsOut]

Typical NLN game we’re all used to seeing now. Kiddie have learned to embrace the dark side since we played them earlier in the season. A 0-0 won by a stroke of luck. Pity Butler took the bait and got sent off.

[lesgeo]

They looked to be a pretty decent outfit.

[Deereyme66]

They were decent and managed the game well. Organised and solid at the back

[Apollo11]

Could have gone either way last night, in my opinion. There were chances for both sides though Kidderminster’s were a lot more clear cut.

The goal was a fluke, but Fitzsimons misjudged it. We severely lack a fox in the box, or some killer instinct up front. They had Calum Roberts locked up from the start, aka Butterfield Syndrome. Clunan ran around trying to knit things together but messed up marginally less than he did something good. Scales not that great – again.

Schofield almost took exception to a couple things during the post-match interview with Ollie on BBC Humberside, but all in all he was balanced and philosophical and relatively good-humoured. Don’t panic!

Does Butler’s red card mean he’s in the stands against Chester, or is there a one week delay in the ban being implemented? Anyone know for sure?

[Northumbiron]

Does it matter?

If we’re not up for it on Saturday heaven help us.
