It was very much a game of two halves . First half we looked pretty good , the ball was virtually in the Weymouth half for the entire forty five minutes , thought Ollie Crankshaw had a good game and if that twenty yarder had gone in , at two nil , we would have won comfortably . Madden played superbly and worked hard all game , Ash Palmer was a colossus all game but sometimes one incident can change a game . The gilt edge chance Weymouth had just before the break was in my view a turning point. Weymouth then realised that they could make chances and at half time their manager must have told his team that at one nil they were very much in it . They grew in confidence and dominated things for a while but DC made some clever subs to bolster the midfield and County gradually got a grip again . Overall , first half good , but couldn’t t quite get the second goal , second half not so good , lot of misplaced passes and possession given away too easily but we got and grinded out the win . You have to remember our best player Sarsavec is still out and he makes a big difference but we are still managing to win games without him . Next match , well it’s all hands on the pump as we continue to try and rid of the Aldershot hoodoo , despite winning there last year , it’s still an unnerving bogey ground full of demons and voodooism , and we might have a few players out injured as well . A very difficult task ahead !
