This says attendance of 250 as well. Jiggling of the figures going on perhaps?

Whichever, with not many games on elsewhere - still disappointing! :(

What a strange game.

Truro played a decent passing game for the opening 20 minutes or so, taking a 1-0 lead and we looked very comfortable.

Then we changed tack, and begin hoofing it up the field for the rest of the half. Net result was that H&R took a 2-1 lead at HT.

We hit back well, Walker converting yet another penalty this season, 2-2. We pushed on and could have had another penalty (not given) and Superman narrowly missed a half-volley.

Hampton and Richmond hit us on the counter attack and worked their way into a 2-3 lead. I don't know how - their attack was pretty poor throughout the game. I reckon if we had Sandercombe, who must have been injured, and not Brooks we wouldn't have let in the 3 goals that we did.

The time wore on, the referee gave us 3 very strange and questionable free kicks all around the halfway line. From a corner we won a penalty which Walker missed. From the resultant corner we managed to lash in a very late - Fergie late - equaliser. 3-3 but I felt we should have won.

Lee Hodges played well again coming off the bench, so did Dan Smith who is improving all the time but the star was clearly Jake Ash.

Crowd not too bad considering the time of year it is.
