I've been told last Saturdays referee is in his first season and was reported as making several mistakes one was the penalty I can assure you this is fact.

Reid has ability and pace and he obviously needs a bollocking to keep him on top of his game I bet Johnson gave him an encouraging one before last night game as he looked a different player to what he was on Saturday.

I have never used Facebook or Twitter. I have never had, nor used, a mobile phone.

What are they then?

I did not realise a successful penalty was not a goal!

Have you also gone through the other players in that top 8 and removed any penalties they may have converted?

Excellent insight; thanks for sharing - my life is at least 17% more enriched for knowing that

Woking 3-2 down at half time at Gloucester
They are certainly good at getting penalties
2 more tonight , expect they will get 2 more in the second half and win 4-3 Gerring og for Gloucester

Got that right as they appeared to score their fourth in 90 + 4 minutes.

Incredible as they were losing 3-2 in the 87th minute.

They certainly seem to have had some luck this season with another two penalties tonight. I'm not too worried though. With all due respect to Gerring no team is going to win this league with him at centre half.

I'm not sure whether St Albans were the worst side I have ever seen or they just couldn't live with us. Kalala was amazing. Janneh is quality.

And we did it minus Hall, Dickson and Edwards. Why start worrying about Concord Rangers. From what I've seen tonight they might as well not bother turning up.

Hang on, Brucie - let's not get too cocky. Most, if not all, St Albans players are part timers and so probably worked yesterday morning and got on a coach at 3 pm for the delightful journey down the M4/M5 and hitting Bristol just about total gridlock time. Like Rayzie, I heard that they arrived at Plainmoor after 7pm - hardly the ideal preparation for a match. It would help our cause if more games could be re-arranged for Tuesday nights!

According to Dave Thomas in today's Herald Express, Canvey Island - alias Concord Rangers - have a number of players with league experience in their side. They have the same number of points as us so I don't see it as an easy game. But I hope that I am proved wrong, Brucie.

A warning for Saturday - the main Torquay street and other roads are being closed from 4 pm for the Christmas procession (probably two floats and a few elves). So to those who usually leave via Castle Circus or Lymington Road - don't! I remember a couple of seasons ago when the procession co-incided with a home match. It was chaos trying to get out of Torquay.

Jack Midson always seems to score against us
but he must be about 47 by now
If we play like we did on Tuesday we will win

I watched a few highlights of some of their games earlier in the season and their defence was shocking. See that they have signed Connor Essam from Dover who isn't a bad player.

Midsons gone downhill quicker than Franz Klammer.

They might have the same number of points as us but St Albans had more and they were worse than useless. HAvn't got much sympathy anyway - get to Bristol around rush hour and shock horror got stuck in traffic. Brought it upon themselves I'm afraid.

Listening to the chants of 'Reidy! Reidy!' I was reminded of one or two forgotten chants from the past, not least....'Oh! Willie, Willie; Willie, Willie, Willie, Willie, Willie Brown! And, of course, 'Ro-o-o-bin! Ro-o-o-bin!' Was there a Reg Wyatt chant?

Reg Wyatt played in the days of 'Oggie, Oggie, Oggie' but I don't recall any player chants from the early 60s. I'm old enough to have chanted the 'Robin, Robin' one and, of course, a more recent one was about the very mobile Kevin Hill.

Was that the one similar to the Johnny Hore (Plymouth Argyle) one . . .

He's 'ere, he's there,
He's every ******* where . . .
