-The winning attitude in the

-dressing room is priceless.

-I agree with Sion Meredith that the

-first goal will be crucial.

-It might be the hardest game for

-The New Saints this season.

-We'll have to see what happens.

-I wonder if the referee...

-..would have booked the

-player if that tackle...

-..had been done in 10 minutes time?

-John Rushton is in the

-GAP Connah's Quay goal.

-It is only his second

-match of the season.

-John Rushton kept a clean

-He went for power rather

-than trying to lift it...

-..over the goalkeeper.

-The New Saints team today.

-Jon Routledge was not fit to take

-his place in the team today.

-The strongest in the league.

-other in training.

-It is great to see...

-..that standards are being

-raised in this league.

-The clearance was by Lewis Short.

-..and has completed more crosses

-than anyone else in the league.

-It is a cold winter's night here

-at the Deeside Stadium.

-The New Saints would've

-hoped an early goal...

-..and that is what they got.

-Wes Baynes does well.

-He gets the better of

-Scott Quigley on that occasion.

-Several clubs have made enquiries...

-..about the availability

-of Scott Quigley...

-..in the January's transfer window.

-They feel that the price they have

-been asked is too high.

-Everyone has his price.

-I'm sure The New Saints would

-not stand in his way...

-..and deny him a chance to

-play at a higher level.

-That was a poor corner

-from Nathan Woolfe.

-GAP Connah's Quay will have to take

-advantage of any chances they get.

-Some success from set pieces can

-give you a bit of momentum.

-The shot from Davies was blocked.

-John Disney was offside.

-Phil Baker was the one who

-blocked the shot.

-Fog has caused one game between

-these two clubs...

-..to be postponed already

-this season.

-I hope that doesn't happen tonight.

-We'll cross everything we

-have in the hope...

-..that we will see a full

-90 minutes.

-Ryan Brobbel was aiming for

-Alex Darlington.

-We don't see that very often

-from Ryan Brobbel.

-He's usually an excellent

-passer of the ball.

-Ryan Brobbel is not as involved

-tonight as he usually is.

-He is a player that can

-make things happen.

-He has to find pockets

-of space and light.

-Alex Darlington has been

-very quiet so far.

-The New Saints have spotted a

-weakness with Wes Baynes.

-They are aiming the ball

-out on that wing.

-They think that Scott Quigley

-Has A Chance Against Him.

-injury last season.

-defence today because of his pace.

-For once, Alex Darlington

-saw his pass go awry.

-Nick Rushton is down the left.

-Nathan Woolfe provides a perfect

-cross for Les Davies.

-You Would Expect the net

-to be bulging.

-ball back across the keeper.

-Scott Quigley has given the

-champions the lead here...

-..after 4 minutes.

-This is the first against the second

-in the Welsh Premier league.

-Connah's Quay are in this game

-despite being behind.

-They are well-organised.

-However, you do feel that

-TNS have another gear.

-The fog has cleared, thank goodness.

-We are here at the Deeside Stadium

-for the big match on Sgorio.

-TNS are creating records

-every time they play.

-Les Davies had the opportunity.

-In the end, Paul Harrison

-makes the save.

-It was a fluffed effort

-from Callum Morris.

-Callum Morris has only scored

-one goal this season.

-He was their top scorer last season.

-That was an opening for

-the home side.

-That Will Give Them Some Confidence.

-They must believe that

-chances will come their way.

-Les Davies wanted to bring the

-ball onto his left foot.

-That allowed the defence

-to make the block.

-Ryan Brobbel crossed to

-the far post.

-Alex Darlington wins a corner.

-TNS attack ever so quickly.

-As soon as Connah's Quay

-lose possession...

-The ball bounced in the 6 yard box.

-Les Davies's left foot

-managed to clear it.

-in midfield.

-know each other's games.

-Connell Rawlinson and Ryan Brobbel..

-..are a couple who are ever

-present this season.

-It's so important to have a

-settled spine to Your Team.

-Ryan Brobbel is such a clever,

-creative Player.

-It took him a while to Settle In...

-..but he really knits

-everything together.

-James Owen was fouled.

-Over 40% of goals are scored from

-free kicks or throw-ins.

-You must Be able to take Them Well.

-Les Davies scored a great goal

-against Bangor City.

-Actually, it was Wes Baynes. I can't

-see him trying it from here.

-It was a terrible effort.

-What a complete waste of a Chance.

-Les Davies wins the aerial battle

-against Marriott once again.

-There was a bit of afters between

-Les Davies and Chris Marriott.

-I think it all goes back to the

-chance on the far post.

-The two players don't look like

-they're Going To Shake hands.

-You move out of the way when

-Les Davies starts to move.

-Andy Morrison and Les Davies

-would make a good tag team.

-We've Played Half An Hour

-and TNS lead...

-..after a fourth-minute goal.

-goals last season.

-excellent team as well.

-for James Owen.

-organise his feet.

-keep hold of that one.

-He didn't measure the

-flight of the ball.

-Nathan Woolfe took the corner.

-The ball was curled into the area.

-Sean Smith's cross was into the box.

-This is good pressure

-from Connah's Quay.

-Jon Rushton put The Ball In.

-The TNS defence was all at sea.

-couldn't put in the cross.

-In the end, it's a free

-There was no one attacking

-The Ball In a red shirt.

-Happen to score a goal.

-scorer so far in this game.

-body at the ball.

-Nathan Woolfe try to get

-past Spender.

-It is a foul by a Ryan Brobbel.

-Simon Spender Is Incensed

-with that decision.

-I'm not sure if that was a foul.

-I think he might have lost

-control of the ball.

-Connah's Quay have looked the

-more likely scorers...

-..in the last 10 minutes.

-Wes Baynes will curl the ball in.

-Greg Draper was on the near post.

-Chris Marriott will never give

-up against Les Davies.

-Les Davies won't give up either.

-It's a titanic battle.

-I love those sort of

-confrontations on the pitch.

-Lewis Short dries the

-That looked like a push

-By Connell Rawlinson.

-Greg Draper was down the middle.

-A lovely back-heel

-from Ryan Brobbel.

-At The Other Side Of The pitch

-Connah's Quay are on the attack.

-Aeron Edwards found Ryan Brobbel

-Down The right-hand side.

-John Disney is marking Greg Draper.

-Chris Marriott will take

-the free kick.

-You really don't want to

-concede another goal...

-Only Paul Harrison isn't in the

-Connah's Quay half of the pitch.

-It will be a throw-in

-for Connah's Quay.

-finish this half strongly.

-momentum at the moment.

-which of these sides...

-..are on a remarkable run from

-their performances so far.

-You just have to look at the score!

-I know what you mean.

-After the goal, TNS have only

-created half chances.

-Connah's Quay Have had a few

-really good chances.

-Andy Morrison Knows It's So

-Important To make the most...

-..of your dominance.

-The referee changed his mind

-about a foul on that occasion.

-I don't think that was a foul.

-He Didn't Push him.

-There was contact but

-Sean Smith Went Down far too easily.

-Chris Marriott has taken

-the corner kick.

-There were 4 or 5 TNS players

-waiting in the box.

-Good defensive work from

-the home side.

-Simon Spender picks out his target.

-That was a great chance

-for Scott Quigley.

-He didn't get hold of it.

-If he had hit that right, it

-would have been 2-0.

-Scott Quigley just takes his eye off

-the Ball. Scott Quigley was onside.

-To put the ball into the box.

-The TNS defence is playing

-a very high line.

-We are into the final

-minute of the first half.

-The difference is a clinical

-finish by Scott Quigley.

-the defender.

-He dummied to shoot

-towards the far corner...

-..and then slid it home

-on this side.

-The striker sometimes makes that

-look more difficult...

-..than it is.

-The shaping of the body helped

-him open up the goal.

-Greg Draper has played international

-football for New Zealand.

-Connah's Quay are going to

-have to gamble now.

-That could leave them

-short at the back.

-Nick Rushton with the

-effort on goal.

-He'd be disappointed it was

-straight at Paul Harrison.

-He was trying to get some

-curl onto the ball.

-It's a difficult skill. You have to

-catch the ball a Glancing Blow.

-The whole defence was beaten

-by a single pass.

-Andy Morrison will be

-disappointed with that.

-Once Greg Draper is through on goal

-he tends to keep his head.

-He didn't panic when the

-goalkeeper came out towards him.

-He knew we had time and space

-to Score The Goal.

-Andy Morrison and Jay Catton are

-talking tactics beneath us.

-They have Matty Williams and

-Ashley Ruane as backup.

-They could be impact players.

-Ashley Ruane has scored a few goals

-out on loan with Cefn Druids.

-Declan Poole is the only substitute

-warming up at the moment.

-He is quite inexperienced.

-Matty Williams looks as if he's

-praying to come onto the field.

-He is 32 years old. He needs to

-stretch those muscles thoroughly.

-Matty Owen is also on the

-bench for Connah's Quay.

-He has lost his way since

-moving from Newtown.

-He needs time on the pitch.

-I thought he was brought into

-Connah's Quay...

-..to be a skilled player

-on these 4G pitches.

-Les Davies aims for The Far Post.

-He didn't get enough

-curl on the ball.

-The big man will be disappointed.

-I think he might have hit

-it too hard...

-..for the curl to take affect.

-Once he gets the ball on his

-left foot like that...

-..you know that is only

-one option left.

-Sometimes you can pass the ball

-into the back of the net.

-It is clear that The New Saints have

-done plenty of homework...

-They have been prepared for

-their route one style.

-Scott Quigley did the

-defensive work there.

-Nathan Woolfe went for goal.

-It was a good clearance.

-That's excellent defensive

-work by Simon Spender.

-Connah's Quay are

-trailing by two goals.

-They have conceded a goal at the

-beginning of both halves.

-Steve Saunders was the man who

-got his head in the way.

-The flag has gone up for offside.

-Connah's Quay are Preparing to

-Make Some Substitutions.

-I'm trying to spy out the

-numbers being called up.

-Chris Rimmer looks as if he is

-coming onto the field.

-He will be replacing Wes Baynes.

-Chris Rimmer has gone

-straight into attack.

-They are claiming a penalty kick.

-The referee isn't interested.

-That was excellent defensive

-play by Steve Saunders.

-He shepherded the ball into touch.

-I've seen penalties given

-for less than that.

-There was a leg in the way.

-Lewis Short is now on the

-right-hand side of the defence.

-Smith is moving to the left.

-They Appear to be staying

-with a back four.

-I can't really work out what the

-idea behind the substitution was.

-It's a goal for Connell Rawlinson.

-He made that look very easy indeed.

-Chris Rimmer was caught

-underneath the ball.

-It was a good finish.

-Connell Rawlinson and has now

-scored two goals this season.

-The first one came against Airbus.

-He Has Qualified for

-Europe And Strengthened The Squad.

-Andy Morrison must finish

-second this season...

-..with the finance that

-he has been given.

-I think that the game is over

-for GAP Connah's Quay.

-The New Saints have taken

-their chances.

-GAP Connah's Quay had their

-chances but have not taken Them.

-GAP Connah's Quay must concentrate

-on not conceding more goals.

-The New Saints are

-looking very good today.

-I agree that Andy Morrison must

-finish second this year.

-They have spent Money On players.

-They will expect something to

-Show For that investment.

-They Have A Very Strong squad.

-They have been struck by

-injuries to key players.

-Ian Kearney and

-Mike Pearson are out.

-They are very experienced players.

-Any team would miss them.

-This is a chance for

-Adrian Cieslewicz to come on...

-..for The New Saints.

-The youngster will replace

-Nick Rushton.

-Declan Poole is on.

-This is a chance for Andy Morrison..

-..to have a look at some

-of his players.

-We Will see what

-Declan Poole has to offer.

-Andy Morrison will be keen to see

-how we reacts to this situation.

-There's Not Much Doubt Who Will win

-the three points today...

-..but the final score is still

-a matter of debate.

-Scott Quigley scored

-The New Saints' first goal.

-Greg Draper scored the second.

-GAP Connah's Quay have not had a

-chance to try and slow...

-..the tempo of the match.

-The only way I think that

-The New Saints will lose a match...

-..is after they have won the title.

-The New Saints have not won at this

-stadium since September 2014.

-That was the challenge that the

-manager must have set them...

-..in the dressing room.

-Managers must press the correct

-buttons at the right time.

-The manager's main job is trying

-to get the players focused.

-There will be three matches

-after this one...

-..before the mid-season Split.

-There was no one up front to

-pick up the clearance.

-In that situation you must

-leave a Player up.

-The record stands from the

-beginning the season is 25 matches.

-That was Manchester City

-back in the 1930s.

-Greg Draper Scored The second

-goal for The New Saints.

-He was brave and he kept

-a cool head.

-Adrian Cieslewicz comes on.

-He's wearing his protective

-headgear.

-It is great to see him Back

-playing after his injury.

-He came on as a sub last

-week and he scored.

-He Has Won Every trophy since he

-joined The New Saints.

-They might well be aiming for

-The Quadruple This year!

-Aeron Edwards is quietly

-efficient in midfield as usual.

-Andy Morrison is trying

-to lift his team.

-He will learn a lot about the

-character of his players today.

-His players will know that

-they are losing badly.

-There's no need to him

-To Remind them of that.

-He's doing the right thing by still

-giving them encouragement.

-Alex Darlington was offside I think.

-We're halfway through

-the second half.

-The New Saints are

-comfortably ahead.

-They will extend their advantage

-of the top to 21 points.

-Darlington and Steve Evans are

-discussed tactics...

-..with Craig Harrison.

-The New Saints have not lost since

-Darlington returned to the team.

-Wrexham on other hand

-lost again today.

-It has been a bad day

-for Welsh clubs.

-I Think Cardiff City will be okay...

-..because Warnock will be

-given money in January.

-There are big questions to be

-answered about Swansea city.

-The Fans Are unhappy that The club

-was sold to American owners.

-I wonder if they are going to

-sack yet another manager?

-Chris Marriott receives the first

-booking of the match.

-He tripped Declan Poole.

-GAP Connah's Quay will be looking

-forward to competing...

-..for that second position

-after Christmas.

-The New Saints have a busy

-start to the New Year.

-They play in the Word Cup final

-against Barry Town.

-They Are In The Semi-finals

-Of The Irn-Bru.

-They face Llanelli in

-the the Welsh Cup.

-Lee Trundle is waiting for them.

-GAP Connah's Quay are

-still going for it.

-Andy Morrison their manager would

-not be happy with anything else.

-I'm not sure if that was a shot

-from Callum Morris or not.

-John Disney does well in defence.

-Declan Poole into the area

-but he shoots wide.

-That was a clear-cut chance for

-Declan Poole the substitute.

-He had done the hard work

-by beating his man.

-He Was Stretching For

-that in the end.

-He had more time.

-The defender was unable to

-bring Him Down In the area.

-GAP Connah's Quay brought in some

-very experienced players...

-..over the summer.

-I'm worried that might have some

-other might have seen better days.

-They might have done better to

-bring In Younger players.

-I would like to see

-GAP Connah's Quay employ plan B.

-They need to be a bit more creative.

-They need more technical players so

-that they can Lift The Tempo.

-GAP Connah's Quay's ambition was to

-reach Europe again this season.

-They are on course for

-that at least.
