Shocking way to advertise the club to a new crowd. 3500+ not suitable without the green stand. Many people complaining they and their young kids couldn’t see a thing stood 4 deep around the ground. Stair ways in the Terrance full dangerously and seats long gone.

And mysteriously doesn’t play one of the better defenders (Camp)

Yes, was Camp injured? Suspended? Should have at least have been on the bench if available.
Exciting game in which, at 2-0 and 3-1, we should have won, but we let the Shots come back at us second half and paid for it.
Lots of action and controversy. I thought our man was fouled for their first goal. I didn't see Langston fouled for their equaliser. but accept that my view wasn't ideal. The linesman's was, however. Mr B may rail against an injustice but both Rutherford and Lloyd had clear chances in the second half and if either had scored, game over.
Some of Whitehall's touches in the first half were superb, not sure why he was completely bypassed throughout the second half - were we trying to protect our lead, as usual, especially bearing in mind we have another game on Wednesday, or were Shots just attacking desperately and caught us unawares?
Luckily Bromley and Boreham Wood drew so it's as you were in the table, but a big opportunity missed. Gateshead won their fifth game in a row today to climb further away from trouble, so Wednesday's game should be interesting!

Yes, was Camp injured? Suspended? No on both counts. Just an example of poor judgement and bad man management.

I've criticised Bradbury many times this season mainly for being too negative but I'm not sure he got too much wrong on Monday, decent attacking line up...thought it was a very positive substitution too...if anything, though, I felt he could have brought on Nigel to keep it solid for the final 10/15 mins rather than 1 of Hill or Mitchell. Unusually it looked like Harper was being outpaced by Ryan Glover so could have just sat Carter in front of him for final stages. It looked like Harper was carrying a knock to me, so I can see why LB chose Kelly as full back cover on the bench and Rutherford is stronger than Camp going forward, so I can see why Camp missed out, even though I do rate him highly.

I was about level with the lino and I thought Langston just tripped over his own feet, I also thought our first goal was about 5 yards offside....I'll see whether I'm right or wrong on the highlights.

Shame about the result but it was a great day on Monday, decent crowd, nice to see packed terracing and seats, obviously there were a few issues as regards small children being unable to see, definitely after the big stand really should be sorted, it would of been a great atmosphere at that end aswell. I saw Stewart Donald there, he was nearly the last to leave playing footy on the pitch perimeter , here’s hoping it won’t be long before an announcement and the continuation of the ground improvements, new seats in the stand, not green, maybe the last bit of extension on the old main stand side and maybe plans for the terraced side in time.

I do not necessarily agree with everything Lee says in his interviews, but it is perhaps worth mentioning that the home record is P21 W14 D4 L3 and this was the first home match this season in which we held the lead at any point of the game, but failed to win, which indicates to me that while some people have expressed opinions that we sometimes go defensive after going in front, them if this is the case it is not particularly ineffective on home territory.
In Lee's interview after the game on Monday he mentioned that Jake Hesketh had been injured, but he did not say anything about Brennan Camp who had played a full 90 minutes against Torquay, although I think he took a knock early in that game.
I also had a pith side view of the incident related to the third goal and was in close proximity to it and formed the opinion at the time as did several others around me that our player slipped and fell over. However others were adamant that he had been tripped and it is I believe possible that neither opinion is wrong and that he did slip, but with his balance clearly affected by previous physical contact.
