good old jigsaw, still falls apart in the box!

He's had to change his name, in the last few years to hide the fact he's not very good. Was he called Ndlove or something when he was with us?

Just want to mention the last ditch tackle by Collinge today.

Unreal timing to get the ball and not bring the man down, a tackle Bobby Moore would've been proud of.

[rudebwoyben]

Yeah, that was amazing!

He's some player.

Yeah, he does play a bit like Moore, doesn’t he? Also brings back memories of the likes of Millett and Gridelet (forgotten how to spell his name but those of a certain vintage will know who I mean - ended up converting from a centre back to a cultured midfielder).

I think Collinge looks like a mirror image of Simon King. Blonde guy who's not that tall, not that quick but reads the game incredibly well, times his tackles excellently and is very good playing out of defence. Just does it on the right side of central defence not the left.

Number 11 - Justin

Clearly "I'm-A-Loser" joke made one too many times. That said, you could see how he has improved as a player and tried to get moves going but defence was imperious

Disappointed we never got to see Banks get his inevitable second yellow!

Great and buoyant atmosphere at The Hive... if it is happening on the pitch fans share the joy and The Hive will rock week on week.

To sustain a performance like that over 90 minutes in blistering conditions was impressive - especially Oluwu, Collinge, Hartigan and Gorman.

What a signing Oluwu is proving to be. So assured at the back with Okimo it has liberated Collinge to push forward.

The understanding between Gorman and Hartigan and reading of how to use space on pitch has pulled opposition midfields

Just one moan - typical Barnet - attracting fans with a £5 offer and not enough staff at bar - too many 3/4 pints were being served too with 1 inch + foam up to line. The £5 offer was a good idea but needs to be announced at least 2 or 3 weeks in advance as many will not have seen the offer.

Banks was lucky to not get a second yellow twice, smart move taking him off

The farce was the interview with the Altrincham manager - who otherwise spoke well - who claimed that he had to substitute Banks because we were trying to get him sent off!

Also, how jammy are Chesterfield?

Very much doubt luck comes into it, not the first they've won in Chesterfield time, I'm sure the ref knows what he is doing..

This season Chesterfield have scored injury time winners - yesterday and v Dorking. But they also lost in injury time to Altrincham and conceded an injury time equaliser to Oldham. So it's been swings and roundabouts for them.
