Forest Green scored as many as we did yesterday from fewer shots and lost.
Our attacking intent was shown in the number of shots we had. The fact we didn't take as many of them as we should is a separate argument. [Post edited 25 Jan 13:08]

Sorry, TS, I can't agree with that at all about free hits.
We need to keep winning, especially as York aren't showing any let up. Forget goal difference, that's irrelevant now, we are going to have to beat them on points.
If we win on Tuesday, we go top and the pressure is then suddenly back on York to get something at Solihull next weekend.
The ball then swings back to our court when we play Boreham Wood as York don't play that night. They then have Forest Green at home on the day we play Carlisle.
If we lose on Tuesday and York win on Saturday, we're four points behind them and suddenly the games in hand stop being free hits.
One loss could easily become another (see Boreham Wood) and then momentum is lost and can be hard to get back.
Let's try to keep up what we've achieved so far. It won't be easy and there will be bumps in the road, but one thing this season should have taught us is that the characters in this squad clearly have a winning mentality, and it will be needed in the next three months. |

According to the Match Stats in the Non-League Paper, we had 14 shots yesterday, the same as Scunthorpe and Forest Green combined in their game.
We've also collected nine points in the last week, whereas Forest Green have collected two.
Forest Green have one win in six league matches and are currently six points behind us having played four games fewer.
I know whose shoes I'd rather be in. |

Gordon's goal was disallowed at Woking. We haven't played at Sutton yet.
Having said that, it was so early in the game that there's no saying how the next 80+ minutes would have panned out. We might have won, lost or still drawn. It's pure speculation.
You're right about the Brackley game, though. However, if we miss out on promotion by one point to, say, York, then our results against them will have been of more importance.
There's also no guarantee our "first team" would have beaten Brackley. They should have done and probably would have done, but 'should' doesn't win points.
Edit: And for balance, Henderson was offside when he scored at Morecambe (I've seen an alternative angle) and I think we got away with another when Gilmour scored v Aldershot. Swings and roundabouts. [Post edited 24 Jan 12:33]

Impossible to say, especially as one win is sort of worth 6 points.
However, there are 17 games between the current top 7 in February, so the picture should be a bit clearer after that lot. |

It was recorded officially by the club as the 90th minute and was from open play. |

Off the top of my head, Sutton at home last season (2-1, Rodney), Yeovil away (1-0, McBride).
Also, arguably Mitchell’s equaliser at Tamworth last Feb was just as important, given subsequent results. [Post edited 22 Jan 7:57]

Absolutely, and I'm sure the management team and players know all about Solihull's improvement and capabilities. |

Yeah, I can do percentages.
Anyhow, I'm not sure 3, 4 or 6 games is any sort of sample size to make conclusions from either way. |

In which case, if we want them to, they can go and play somewhere else. |
