Great write up as per usual Paul. Good result and I think we would have taken that before hand. Only concern is that we lost points from a winning position. That was one of the things that cost us last time in the Championship. That said, I think that this squad is much stronger and that once the players get a few more games under their belts they will more than hold their own.

He wondered whether he should have gambled more.
"After 70 minutes, do we take a point and ride the storm or do we roll the dice, put a striker on and have a right go?" he asked. "In the end, I went the coward's route thinking a point would do.
This is the bit that concerns me and will be our downfall yet again. In L1 how many late goals did we score and how many did we concede after 70 mins. We went for it and got the winner and we kept the opposition pressed in their half. In the Champ we try and sit back and keep it in the corner when there's still 10 mins to go and don't try and get another goal and secure the win. We go negative, try and keep the points we have, invite pressure and inevitably concede. It was so frustrating to watch. Lets be more positive.
I would have put Vassel on and gone two up front towards end, yes should’ve took a gamble imoQuote:
