:02:13. > :02:16.fellow relegation strugglers Braintree town has given them a
:02:17. > :02:20.fighting chance of staying in the National League. It started badly
:02:21. > :02:25.with Manny Parry putting Braintree in front after just eight minutes,
:02:26. > :02:29.took united were looking very nervous but then, Brett Williams had
:02:30. > :02:34.a goal disallowed for offside but that seems to fire took united up.

:03:07. > :03:10.disallowed but it sparked is a little bit and great credit to the
:03:11. > :03:14.last comeback and equalised so soon after, otherwise it might have
:03:15. > :03:18.minutes of afternoon. This victory was hugely important for took united
:03:19. > :03:24.but they are no means out of the woods. They have to play Dover
:03:25. > :03:28.athletic and they need wins in the those games but compared to what it

:04:20. > :04:22.And these are the bags that we give the fishing boats.

:05:18. > :05:20.So they swim over it, around it, under its, through it.
:05:21. > :05:22.And it's the through age that gets them into trouble.
