We played Brucieball in the first half, no threat at all, better in the second half but they need to press more like last season. They'll get better when Willock and Joelinton are back.

Apparently Joelinton is out for a few weeks (according to Craig Hope).
It was a terrible game in many aspects, but it was one of those where it didn't matter if we played well - we needed the three points and that's all that matters. The lads showed some spirit, if nothing else.
Also we had Longstaff getting back to fitness & Anderson got his first start of the season.
We rested a lot of players of big Match in Milan on Tuesday.
Fans have been asked too see Gordon and Barnes on the pitch at the same time. We got to see that.
Wilson got his start, which again a lot of fans were calling out for & he delivered by winning us the match.
So positives to take away with the 3 points.
All in all a decent weekend & we're on track to match last seasons form with a better goal difference.
The sun is shining on the big river, our local heroes are playing a happy tune.
Great time to be a geordie!
