AT LAST, a home win. First half we were shocking apart from our goal, I expected another typical home performance but we woke up in the second half and played some nice stuff. Yarney was awful first half with mis-placed passes. What superb skill Boden and Denton had with their goals. Don't know why Shez brings Fortune on, he did nowt. Denton is light years better. Anyone think we might start to win a few home games now ?

rode our luck first half, they were much the better side and yet somehow we went in 1-0 up, the second goal killed them and what a finish by the way from Boden, after that we took control and deserved the win. scored at good times as they say. thought boden and denton were excellent and maguire too. Rowley looked better when weir came on. very enjoyable afternoon.

Happy for Denton.

Deserves to stay next year. Hope he's done enough to change Shez's mind. Good on the deck as well as in the air. As was said a million times on here during Allen's 'rain', get crosses in to him and stop humping it constantly when he's isolated and he's a massive threat.

[Spire-Heights]

Got to admit, I did say take Rowley off at HT, but he was excellent in the second.

[jack bauer]

be good to end the season with a few more like that today and target a top half finish.

100 next season then.

A classic case of Sutton being unable to start with the same intensity in the second half as they played in the first

For once we held out and did not concede in the first half and stepped up the pace at the start of the second with Bodens goal being crucial to the cause meaning Sutton had to push even further allowing us to exploit the gaps at the back

Sutton did not really threaten in the second half compared to the first wheras we could have had at least a coup0le more towards the end

I’m not sure about this

Does the s on the end of maths change is to are?

Maths isn’t the plural of math is it?

Maths is the abbreviation of mathematics. “mathematics” can be considered as a singular and as a plural noun, so I guess both 'is' and 'are' can be grammatically correct.

Considering that only the illiterate Yanks use the term Math when talking about the science of Mathematics then Ralspireite's explanation holds true in this country so

https://en.wikipedia...iki/Mathematics

Quote

The apparent plural form in English, like the French plural form les mathématiques (and the less commonly used singular derivative la mathématique), goes back to the Latin neuter plural mathematica (Cicero), based on the Greek plural τὰ μαθηματικά (ta mathēmatiká), used by Aristotle (384–322 BC), and meaning roughly "all things mathematical"; although it is plausible that English borrowed only the adjective mathematic(al) and formed the noun mathematics anew, after the pattern of physics and metaphysics, which were inherited from Greek.[26] In English, the noun mathematics takes a singular verb. It is often shortened to maths or, in North America, math.[27]

2nd goal just killed them, they must have been in the dressing room at half time wondering how they were behind, most likely feeling positive that they could still win it but before they had chance to get going in the 2nd half we'd hit again. happy days

Imposter! Where’s Trev?!?

Well, he arrived in jocular form. I’ll take the liberty of telling you that “Maths/Marhematics” is not a collective noun (like “the media/police”) which can take a singular or plural form of the “be” verb (as in “the media/police is/are...”) but a simple noun which, like “physics,” is representative of one concept and is used in the singular form only. Whatever the dictionary says, I’ve only ever heard “Physics/Maths is (not “are”) (a nightmare)”. Language rules are based on actual use and do mutate/change over time. Though I do half agree with Johnny Spireite that the yanks always dumb things down to make it easier to understand for themselves....

Is that satisfactory, Trev?

Great result today. Man of the match for me either Magiure or Denton. Would have put Rowley in contention as well if he played the first half like he did in the second. Well played lads.

Interesting that no OOC players started, just contracted and loanees. So maybe that's a clue to where reinforcements will be coming in. Sharman can replace Yarney so that's just Hollis and Chapman to replace.

I thought Evans was MOM. Didn't put a foot wrong.

Evans is very good, Quite possibly player of the season.
