So two double-blanks over Easter. Open game today but also rather a scrappy affair, with the wind evidently playing a part and helping us in the second half. We created some promising openings but were thwarted by brave defending from the home side. Eastmond was just off-target with one late effort. The game's main talking point was the ref's decision to deny us a first-half penalty and instead book Tanto for simulation. Dean Bouzanis mostly commanded his area well but gave us one scary moment when Moors' giant striker Hudlin charged down his clearance, the ball wafting just over the bar. Our unbeaten run in the league now extends to 14 games. We've only won one of the last five now, but three of the four draws were on the road and away points are rarely to be sneezed at. Hartlepool's draw at BW keps them two points below us, but Torquay have closed their gap to six points thanks to a stoppage-time winner at Wrexham. I thought the quality of today's stream today was poor, but the commentary was informed and balanced.[/b] How can you say that the streaming was poor? Multi camera views, repeats from different angles and good quality picture. Not seen as much at our level before.[/quote] I also thought the coverage was very good with unbiased commentary, graphics for bookings, replays and different camera angles. The cheapest stream I have paid for too. Well done Solihull.

When the score line is level throughout it becomes an intense watch and this was certainly that. A far better game than at BW (not difficult).
There may have been minimal contact by their 'keeper on Isaac but not sure it was enough to go down but a yellow card? Ref was poor with his cards today. Four in the first half; just one for a foul which was debatable.
SM had the best chance of the match following a corner but U's created more. Dean B did well to tip that effort from ko over but got away with one in the second other than that his handling was good in the conditions.
Back four very good again and we looked decent going forward at times.
Thought their stream was ok, got stuck briefly a couple of times. Good action replays although they did interrupt the actual match on occasions. Commentary was very good. Knowledgable, impartial and well delivered.

It’s another battling point. We’ve got through a very tough period intact. I always expected the others to close in. Sets it up nicely for next Tuesday. Keep it going boys. P.s. Wrexham have done us no favours at all!! Take 4 pts off us and now lose to Notts C and Torquay in a week at this stage 🤦 why? who are we playing next tuesday?

Good point that lads! A very tough place to go, so another point is a point gained after four tough games is ok. Tuesday is a massive game now win it and I think we can start to see the winning line, so just keep going lads and you will do this. next tuesday is 'massive'? Why?

How can you say that the streaming was poor? Multi camera views, repeats from different angles and good quality picture. Not seen as much at our level before. The quality of your picture may have been good but mine was poor: frequent buffering in the first half and pixelated images. Don't recall that happening in other clubs' streams. It was though one of the cheaper streams this season, so I'm not complaining too much.

I'm sure scorpioeyes could have used their scorpio eyes and looked that one up...

I thought the stream was pretty good too although it did get briefly stuck a few times. Nowhere near as much as most others though, for me. Although for some reason I couldn't get it at all on my usual device and had to boot up my work pc!

Yep, have to agree that the stream was good for me and I thought the overall coverage was excellent - and at a very good price.
Better performance and the away point at the end of that run is nothing to be sniffed at. I miss seeing Kenny biting away in midfield. Think we lose a lot with his absence.
Shame Torquay 'did a Sutton' in the last minute of their game - bit of momentum for them ahead of a crunch week - Hartlepool v Notts then our game against Torquay.
While it is a bit tighter, the good news is that the 85 point mark can only realistically be reached by Sutton, Torquay and Notts Co (barring 100% records for Hartlepool and Stockport and a near-perfect run from Chesterfield), and we would need 2 ppg to make it. Doable.

The presentation and coverage was very good. Unbiased commentary. However the quality of the stream was poor. Freezing countlessly and also jumping. I was worried that I'd miss a goal. Others I have spoken to also had the same problem. i understand that it's not normally like that though. Excellent value if they can stop the buffering.
As for the match, much better than BW but again we failed to take our chances. At times we seem to want an extra touch when we don't have the time against these teams. it'll be good for the lads to have a bit of rest and regroup for a massive game against Torquay.
