Taylor was immense today , GSM again gets on the score sheet
First 10 minutes and last 10 minutes were decent the rest in between was tidy but with no real purpose and a bit safety safety
I really wish we would go toe to toe with teams and get the crowd on their feet as that last 10 mins was very exciting

Great effort, considering most were absolutely out on their feet and our small squad.
Positives;
Positives;
- Didnt lose
- 90 mins in the tank for Moncur (though 2 thirds of it was less impactful that start, which is to be expected)
- We created a lot and looked much more of a threat
- Taylor immense
- Desperately need to bolster this squad
- Bridge delivery is terrible, got to work on it. Must have had 20 attempts to cross and hit first man with pretty much all of them

If the national league done fantasy football then gus Scott Morris is locked. Fair play to him, that's 4 in row.

Relieved with a point given injuries to an already thin squad. Morton did well on for Miley, good assist from Wood, Taylor MoM for me.

I'll take the point, but IMO We are currently 3 or 4 players short of a play-off starting XI and bench
LWB is needed if we are gonna stick with 5 at the back.
Striker this is a must!.
enforcing CM, we are so light in the middle and need a player that can disrupt teams and stop them playing.
Attacking winger with pace (if he can play either side, even better).
Sign these, and we are set for a play-off push
Huge ask I know ... but this is my assessment for what it's worth

Beyond saved a point there. Midfield were static all game and gave us nothing playing out.
Passes being misplaced everywhere and very slow. ****poor performance for 70 mins.
Very very lucky to have a point

Atmosphere so flat. Credit to daggers fans. Didn't stop singing all game even when under the cosh. Need to back the boys better

Said along, him and Miley don't work together well, but separately they are both good players

Great point at the death, Daggers had their tails up a bit after Cav went off. It was great how we did turn up the heat in the last 10 minutes.
People thought we’d be in for a long evening when the lineup was out, I thought we looked ok in the circumstances, nice to see Moncur start, maybe he wouldn’t have done the whole 90 if Coker hadn’t have gone down early.
Great save by Collin at the start of the 2nd half.
Just saw Boston won 2-0 at York!

We were rubbish. I agree 100% that it was flat but we are so boring to watch. What do you want us to sing about?
Have to take that as a decent point given the injuries and lack of depth. The real frustration is that this now feels self-imposed. There's no excuse to not be fielding a full bench when you've got 8,500 fans packing out the stadium.
Kev had his hands tied with the options he had on the bench. What could he really change? Add another defender? Or another holding midfielder? He needs backing with options. Luckily today Wood produced late on, but we need more quality if we want to beat teams. Several of our key men from last year looking well off the pace with Bridge, Miley, etc. A bit more competition and a rest would do them wonders.
Tactically, thought Kev played it quite well in the earlier stages. Wood coming on for Coker mixed that up a bit, but we held our own. Bridge should know better than to concede a penalty like that, and then was ball watching for their second.
Feel like this team could kick on after this, a big dramatic late equaliser in front of a big crowd, hopefully one or two additions as the EFL window shuts and Fylde should be an easier opponent next weekend.
Collin 6 He really needs to work on penalties, especially if we keep conceding this many.
GSM 8 Should be playing at a higher level and it shows.
Taylor 7 Dived in perhaps a little too much too early, but looked solid on the right and drove forwards well.
Crowther 6 Strong in the air, but don't think he organises the backline as well as Kensdale.
Ralph 6 Left exposed by Bridge at times, did what he could.
Bridge 4 Worst I've seen from him in some time. Slow, off the pace, and not involved.
Coker 7 Very well taken goal and looked to be a bit more direct, hope the injury isn't too bad.
Miley 5 Similar to Bridge. Not sure if that knock got to him, but his passing was wayward, his tackling sloppy, just didn't look himself.
Husin 5 On another day he could've scored 2 or 3. He doesn't quite yet fully match sharp to me.
Moncur 7 Excellent technique, but could barely stay on his feet by the end so needs to work on his fitness a little more.
Cardwell 6 Just looks a half yard slow to anticipate or make a run, but did have that great chance saved by Justham.
Subs
Wood 7 Excellent deliveries in those closing stages, if only he'd shown that kind of precision earlier on.
Gubbins N/A As soon as he came on we went on the front foot and he didn't have too much left to do.
Morton N/A Didn't do much.

Today was all about squad strength and depth. Or lack of it.
Crowther didn’t have his best day as stand in for Kensdale, and we missed Walker and Waldron as options up front. Wood is still a bit lightweight and ineffective for me.
We started the game really well though and at 1-0 hopes were high for a comfy home win. A soft pen and an injury to Ollie Coker were the turning point and we dropped off massively from then until extra time at the end of the second half.
Suddenly then a bit of urgency returned and Daggers were desperately manning the barricades - but GSM knows where the goal is.
Can’t wait for that bloody transfer window to shut because surely someone in the EFL is looking. We need some new signings - three or four minimum - urgently.

Nothing against you... But that reply is the proper issue. "What shall we sing about" we where much better than them first half. We should have been right behind them with 8000+
