Have to agree with most of what Alan says here. It was a fantastic team performance which had circumstances been different could on another day have justifiably merited bringing all 3 points home. Sadly though it was not to be. It is difficult after that performance to single any individuals out however having said that I would agree with Alan that playing at RIGHT back, probably his more natural position, Joel Sebiluba put in a tremendous performance, no doubt the best so far of the handful of appearances he has made for us. And in the middle of the park, the dominance of Bash Alimi in breaking up their play and winning virtually every 50/50 challenge allowed his central midfield partner Saidou Khan to demonstrate his natural ability to create time and space for himself to stroke the ball around the pitch or run with it at his feet whenever chose.

And although he didn't actually have a great deal to do during the 50 minutes  he was on the field due to the excellence of the other 9 in front of him, young keeper Bobby Aspinall deserves a mention too. Making his first competitive appearance for the senior team there were no signs of nerves. His handling was confident and competent, he almost kept the penalty out and in the build up to Guernsey's winner, made an excellent save from the initial shot down low to his left but sadly the tiring legs  of our defenders were not able to get to the ball ahead of the advancing Guernsey striker who popped up to secure the three points

The view from the other end :

Guernsey overcame being pegged back twice to record their fifth win in a row, beating Tooting & Mitcham United 3-2 at Footes Lane.

Dave Rihoy pounced on a defensive mistake after just three minutes to put the Sarnians in front - Rihoy scoring for the fourth match in a row.

But Frankie Sawyer sprung the Green Lions' offside trap 11 minutes later and superbly lobbed Chris Tardif to equalise.

Tardif made several blocks in the first half to prevent the visitors taking the lead, while Liam Mahon blocked a shot on the line.

GFC were back in front before half-time when Terrors goalkeeper Luke Badiali was sent off for headbutting Marc McGrath on 37 minutes. After a three-minute delay the striker dusted himself off to find the corner from the spot for his 40th strike in a green shirt.

Five minutes into the second half, United were level again when Sawyer capitalised on a rare mistake by Tardif, who missed his catch to allow the striker to smash home.

But GFC showed their character again and found a winner with just under 10 minutes remaining when McGrath was first to react to the rebound after Aspinall had saved from substitute Ross Allen.

Guernsey survived a nervy ending to equal their best run of wins in Ryman South.
 

Luke has apologised on twitter for his behaviour and the sending off yesterday

There is no doubt in my mind that we play better against good footballing sides, and Guernsey are certainly a team that don't try to kick you off the park. It's a tragedy that a basic error cost us an early goal and a moment of madness put us down to ten men.
However the response by our team was wonderful. We should be proud of all the players who worked so hard to keep us in the match in the second half.
Good video coverage for anybody not at the game, and an accurate comment at the end by the Guernsey manager. Lovely reaction from the Guernsey crowd as we came off the pitch.
Great day apart from the result. We deserved better.
 

Allow me please to be a little contentious - well why not on a Monday morning.

I have not yet seen the video and I don't doubt the fine reporting of the courageous performance put in by the lads.
However.........the actions of the skipper almost certainly cost us 3 points against Carshalton on NYD.  And the scoreline suggests the same thing here. 

Discipline under Craig & Adam at the start of their reign was a revelation compared to what we had seen in recent seasons.  Gone were the stupid bookings for needless tackles and petulent dissent.  
But all that nonsense stuff has galloped, not crept, back in and now we are as bad as before, including swarming round the ref doin much swearing.  And it is costing us points we can't afford to give away.   Shame.      

To clarify, I fully accept that a defender will, on occasions, have to 'take one for the team'.  Even including a straight ref for a desperate, last ditch, certain goal saving tackle.  That is not what I am on about.

As so often happens in football, the referees seem to give the second offence rather than the initial first foul., and that s what happened to our keeper in the Guernsey game. If you look at their video it clearly shows him looking at our keeper & their player. He should have seen their player holding the keepers jersey, & thats when Luke head butted the player. The sending off was correct decision, but the penalty was wrong. It should have been a free kick to us.
