I am now beginning to worry as, by the time other players return or new ones arrive, the morale will be so low that it will be difficult to end the decline.
I didn't see the Offord incident as I hadn't quite settled into the game ( a bit like the Alex themselves!). Whatever, the incident was classed as violent play so he'll be missing for 3 games. We might as well get used to him not being around as he won't be here much longer.
Tabiner was the one bright spark. Him and Evans were the only people moving around into space in the first half. Evans couldn't do much as the ball kept being punted up in the air, whereas he's a runner, not a target man.
Agyei continues to frustrate me: he only moves when he's given the ball and in the first half didn't look for his team-mates.
Ah well go again on Sunday against a team that HAVE outplayed us at least once this season.
