Merthyr v dorchester

Tonight’s game ended in 1-1 draw
A fair result though we had our chances at the end to seal all three points
We needed a win really to draw ourselves out bottom three
We have some very hard games coming up so I cannot see things improving in near future
We once again had full effort from the players and the young goal keeper did put in a good shift again

Yes, we really needed to pick up all three points against a side who are struggling as we are. But it was a good performance, carrying on from the battling second half display against Truro on Saturday, and we could easily have won. On paper, we now seem to have the extra experienced players we needed but it's frustrating that, for various unknown reasons, we have still not been able to field our strongest team. Even so, the team's commitment and determination cannot be faulted and we have good cause to be optimistic.

It is the fourth occasion we have had a player pick up a injury during the warm up,surely this must be upsetting the team plans. In my opinion we need 3 players with more experience to give the team a better balance,you can't fault their effort but unfortunately it is not bringing us the points we need to get away from the bottom thee/four.
