Not a nice comment from the FGR bench to Ryan Inniss there.
 
Humiliating him that publicly, after his CB partner was 10 yards out of position..
 
Stay calm guys
Do you mean this came from a member of the coaching staff or substitutes?

Quality move down the right. Temi is looking very sharp tonight

Haughton has been outstanding tonight. Much sharper and 'on it'

Delighted to see Babalola get his goals today, even if he could have had a couple more. I was guilty of judging him too quickly when the truth is players often need some time to settle in a new team, especially when stepping up the leagues. I do agree his touch and control has been lacking, but he takes up good positions, works hard, and will always be a physical threat.
 
The best recruiters (e.g. Brighton, Brentford, Dortmund) often take whole seasons to bed in new players and understand that output over their first 10 games or so has very little bearing on a player’s ultimate value.
 
Babalola may still turn out to be a flop, or may become the long awaited 20-goal a season striker. Most likely… somewhere in between. Here’s to patience, and finding out.

Little doubt that had Tamworth not lost a man earlier they would have most likely beat us.

Green army 95 post. Let's hope whatever it was blows over. Unless he is injured, half time shuffle ? Has he come onto the bench for 2nd half. He has a key part to play in the team, need to calm those waters

still less points than last season after 18 games... but more goals scored already and less conceded! another RS Turbo? remember that is not so easy to play against 10, even more when they scored the first, so very good result today: 3rd in the table also, after Rochdale defeat against an uprising York.

Just seen FT score. Their 2nd goal with 10 men comes from a header, Innis would have dealt with!

Great to see Babs and Haughton on scoresheet. Should do their confidence the world of good.

Poor performance but scored 4. Good sign I suppose.

That was a very strange performance. A few superb moves mixed up with a lot of very poor quality. Kept giving the ball away and losing out in 1 on 1s. Still, scored 4 and up to third.
 
Will be very interesting to hear Robbie's take on that.

I think the conditions had a lot to do with the poor passing
