Home results over the last 6 seasons where we lost by 2 goals or more - just the 10.

05.10.2004 	Barnet 	        L0-3 
03.12.2005 	Canvey Island 	L0-2 
30.01.2006 	Accrington S 	L1-3 
18.02.2006 	York City 	L1-3 
14.03.2006 	Stevenage 	L0-2 
20.01.2007 	Ebbsfleet Utd   L1-3 
17.11.2007 	Burton Albion 	L1-4 
28.10.2008 	Chesterfield 	L1-6 
28.12.2008 	Brentford 	L0-2 
10.03.2009 	Bournemouth 	L1-3

Will take longer to find games where we were 2 or more down and got a point or 3. Rare it would seem.

Typical I was at all of them. I remember the York one coz I got in bout 5 mins late and had no idea we had already scored and left thinking we lost 3-0 til I saw it on the tele later.

And Ebbsfleet was a particular low, chucking it down with rain IIRC and 3-0 down at halftime, all kicking off in the BB coz people were booing and then the 'happy-clappers' were saying we shouldn't boo etc. All fun & games.

I've looked for potential fight backs since being in the Conference, home games only. These are the results where the opposition have scored 2 or more goals, and we have either drawn or won them. Looks like only the Crawley game (as mentioned on here before) is where we have gone 2 or more goals down and got the points.

04.09.2004 	Crawley Town 	W3-2 	2-0 down after 23 minutes.
25.09.2004 	Tamworth 	D2-2 	0-1, 1-1, 1-2, 2-2
08.10.2005 	Halifax Town 	W4-2 	0-1, 1-1, 1-2 ,2-2, 3-2, 4-2
19.09.2006 	St Albans City 	W4-2 	1-0, 1-1, 2-1, 3-1, 4-1, 4-2
09.12.2006 	Dag & Redb'ge 	W3-2 	0-1, 1-1, 2-1, 2-2, 3-2
18.09.2007 	Forest Green 	D3-3 	1-0, 2-0, 2-1, 2-2, 3-2, 3-3
09.10.2007 	Salisbury City 	W4-2 	1-0, 1-1, 2-1, 3-1, 4-1, 4-2

For me it was the Burton home game. Had bought my 2 children for their first visit to SJP, hospitality and all.

Only at the weekends! Just for you 'r', insert somewhere as appropriate.

I am a fan of David Noble, and I think he will prove to be an extremely valuable player over the course of the season. However, on Saturday I thought he was generally sloppy and, with the exception of some occasionally superb ball-playing, ineffective.

I will be watching him very closely on Saturday, because he needs to sharpen up.

At times he just didn't look like his head was in it, which I guess was understandable. Plus it seemed to take him a while to calm down after his yelling at Jonesy. Bit of a Jekyll and Hyde performance I think.

I think I'm just happiest that we kept going and played our way back into the game.

Just wanted to emphasise this last bit. We PLAYED our way back into the game really well. Considering the numerical disadvantage I thought we had a fair amount of control over the game and the move that sent Dunne away to earn the penalty was excellent.
