The keeper must have had a few hundred quid on us winning the title at the start of the season. No other explanation for it.

If this were a race Salford would be the guy in great shape making a sprint finish and we'd be the ones with our noses in front staggering over the line.

Said it before at this point of the season I'd rather be lucky than good, let us hope it can hold out for the next couple of games.

He was also awful for the 1st goal. Came and got absolutely nowhere near it.

It's the bit of luck we needed. Their keeper in the first half is decent and probably wouldn't have let either of those in.

Further, can someone explain how their keeper isn’t sent off for that but Marvin was shown red at Bromley?
Its National League refs, what do you expect - Premier League standard. We gotta take the rough with the smooth

Bonne definitely dived.
Looking at it again the keeper takes an air shot at the ball which takes out the onrushing Bonne. Then, just to make sure, he bearhugs Harrold and bundles him to the ground. See eagy's post at the top of this page for why.

Not a dive by Bonne.
