and live on Freeview channel 276
Ten days ago for the trip to Taunton, the Borough boss switched his side’s formation from the 4-2-3-1 which has served them well all season, and decided to “play a three” – three centre-backs and two wing-backs. It served the purpose with a 2-1 win in Somerset.
Following a 2-2 thriller against Chelmsford last weekend, the seams came apart on Tuesday, when a disastrous opening half-hour saw visitors Tonbridge Angels storm to a 2-0 lead. A change back to Borough’s accustomed back four did steady the ship, but Tonbridge hung on for a 2-1 victory.
