4-1 flattered Mickleover. That was very poor from start to finish. Outplayed in every department. Mickleover pinpointed the left hand side quite early and got some successful, including the penalty down that side. The amount of changes made at HT and throughout the second half was indicative of how Sandy was chasing a well oiled Mickleover side. I think our first corner came 60/70 minturs in. We were never at the races.

"I feel sorry for the fans that came to watch us today"
Brutal honesty from Sandy. The interview is very representative of what we felt at the game. Yard off it all game against a surprising well organised Mickleover side.

Well at least Bruno took a 1-1 third time lucky! We are struggling in attack, and if Bruno were to go or be needed at Bedford, we would be seriously in trouble. Very early days and we certainly weren't expecting to winning every game this early on, but my concern is that we are still quite a way off the quality of the top teams of this division.
Monday offers a great opportunity for redemption of course, we haven't really done ourselves justice, at least in the league, against Corby past couple of seasons, there may not be much of a rivalry between us, but would love to beat them!
