    They're in Tier 7 which is the same level as the Northern Premier League where Marine, Macclesfield, Worksop etc are. I'd suggest losing to Marine ranks as our worst based on quality of opposition.

    You're probably right about that. But it definitely didn't spoil my weekend. Or even 5 minutes of my Friday.

    Well fingers crossed, I hope not.
    It surely can't and hopefully won't happen again!.
    Remember this sort of thing is their Cup Final, and most of them raise their 'bar' and play a blinder. Much better than what they ever do in their Non League matches.
    If their keeper played as well as that regularly, he'd be in this League or maybe even in the Championship.
    We've got to go there and be professional, and hopefully tear them a new one!. :rolleyes:

    Highly entertaining, mainly because of how bad it was. It would have been even funnier if it hadn't been £25 a ticket.

    “Statistically”? How can it be when we didn’t loose the tie…. yet? I just don’t see how a draw is worse than loosing to Altrincham…..

    “Statistically” it must however be one of our worst ever draws if that helps?

    Do you understand the term result?

    a draw against a 7th tier team is one of our worst ever results. Though I think Marine were mentioned earlier that could compete.

    Pretty sure that you don’t understand the term yourself, as the “result” was a draw not a loss. So “statistically” it was a better “result” than every loss we’ve ever had.
