Could this be another one to add to the winning streak? I see Sean Geddes scored for them in their 4-1 win in the FA Vase against Skegness Town on Saturday........his 'comeback' with us fell through then! (I don't recall reading anything about it ) Must be a decent 120 mile round trip for him to attend training and also for the home games. Dodger.

Here's hoping: however, we'll have to play better than Saturday, when for my money we didn't deserve more than a draw.

Who is getting carried away, i made a point, its a valid point, if a team can get wins when theyve not been at their best then its a sign of potential champions. Last year that would have been us crumbling away at Shawbury or Wulfrunians. This year they work hard until the end, the spirit is more together. To win when up against it (like Shepshed away) is a sign of potential champions. Point made

Potential champions also show the spirit to come from 2-0 down in stoppage time to salvage a point 👍😊

A mostly poor performance, and Quorn deserved 3 points but hopefully this will be a wake up call to a couple of players who underwhelmed - we cannot get complacent against any team, Wolves Sporting showed that on Saturday, and Quorn certainly showed it today. They were the best team we've played this season. To grab a point at the death when we have Turton, Reynolds, Caines, Smith, Birley, Withington and Gallinagh all unavailable is commendable to the "never say never" attitude the team seems to have. Now that, that is the spirit of POTENTIAL champions.

Quorn were the best team we've played this season, and it was good to see Sean Geddes playing for them. He's still got the speed of thought and first touch, but he's got to get his fitness and sharpness back. It was a point grabbed against the odds, but it certainly shows the spirit of the team. With the players unavailable last night, it was a good point.

I would agree with the last poster: we were very poor in the first half, marginally better in the second, missed a gilt-edged chance when it was still 0-0 and yet somehow managed a draw from 0-2 down when we didn't deserve anything: well, perhaps we deserved a point for sheer grit and determination.
I am sure Quorn will climb the table if they keep playing like that. Nice to see the applause given to Sean Geddes as he left the field when substituted.
