Boss John Askey wants more of the same from his Truro City side ahead of tomorrow’s home match against Tonbridge Angels – 3.00pm.
The Tinners are unbeaten in four and have garnered a win and a draw from their last two games – at home to Hampton and on the road at Farnborough.
The Beavers were dispatched 3-0 at the TCS last Saturday before Truro were held to a 1-1 draw at Farnborough last time out.
It was a remarkable effort from Askey’s troops, as they played 36 minutes of the game with nine men after Billy Palfrey and Connor Riley-Lowe were harshly sent off for a second booking, in the same passage of play.
“To come away with another win from the Hampton game was very pleasing and this set things up nicely for our midweek trip to Farnborough – a game that had just about everything,” Askey told trurocity.co.uk.
“I couldn’t be any more pleased with the way the lads performed at Farnborough. We showed grit and determination, like we have done all season and if we keep doing that, we’ll get where we want to be.
“Before the game, we would have settled for a point, so given the circumstances we had to contend with, it is a fantastic point.
“Farnborough had a lot of the ball, but how many times did they work Dan Lavercombe? It wasn’t until we went down to nine men that Dan had to make some saves.
“Their goal is from a big deflection and every single player worked really hard, against probably the best team we have played so far this year. Overall it is a really good point.
“We weren’t disappointed with Tuesday because the point keeps our good run going and we looked solid. If we keep being organised and people keep doing their jobs, we will get goals.
“Tyler came up with another fantastic free-kick and overall, we have just got to keep going and see where it takes us.”
Not only were City fantastic on the pitch at Cherrywood Road on Tuesday, the travelling support was equally as impressive, with Askey praising those who made the near 500-mile round trip for his side’s latest midweek clash.
“I must give a message of thanks for our fans, who were amazing on Tuesday and I don’t know how they do it, following Truro City home and away, up and down the country,” the 59-year-old added.
“We really appreciate their support and the lads always make a point of going over to thank them at the end of the game. I see it as everyone being in this football club together and I hope the fans feel that we are trying to move forward for them.”
