First relatively local match of the season that I can get to. I'll be there!

Decent point on the road - I wasn’t there to see it as I had to work, but it stops the rot! Was watching through Twitter updates - now on to Tuesday with a bit of confidence in the bank!

Decent game against a strong opposition.
Two pretty evenly matched teams - although I think we should have won it - just.
New #10 looked pacey and dangerous, but a little lightweight. Offered a good counter attacking outlet.
Decent performance in my opinion.

He’s a good lad, fast, nippy, will make mistakes and bad choices from time to time, but I can take that - he’s a breath of fresh air frankly and I applaud his direct approach!
Table tonight - Tuesday’s match is shaping up to be quite important isn’t it?

A good performance from the team today, with plenty of positives. We looked far more creative with a nippy player working with Ryan Dove, and the work rate of Dove was the best I’ve seen from an attacking player since Tom Lorraine was injury free. The pyramid formation had plenty of pros and cons - we’ll need to tighten up our support for the full backs if the opposition has a full back prepared to support a wide player - as we saw several times before their left back provided the cross for their goal. Had we not wasted several good positions with free kicks we might have got a winner - and their keeper made an excellent save too.

Which player are you referring to, Morgan?

Yep Morgan.
Looked decent, however Rushall figured out just to constantly foul him, which held him back a bit!
