HT 1-1

Light rations today, bovril, cheese & pickled onions


This is probably tempting fate, but Pringle has hardly had a touch, playing in central midfield.

Hi Perigord and the rest I didn't say hello to before.

Bizzzarrre game.A goal for us by Williams well taken. We headed one off the line really early on (Wood I think). Ajayi and Rodac i a tangle. Don't know why Rodac was out of his area bt we got away with it.

They are much better passing to feet going forrud. The little ginger lad and the lanky midfielder are doing well. They pass well and to feet through the length of the pitch but they're not causing too many problems.

We are more hopefull in our play and I reckon we'll see Smith before JCH because that's how it works. The long balls are being directed into the corner of ther box where we're missing out due to them being able to head it. When the ball is lower we're doing better with Ball and Yates combining well.

Yates committed a foul where he rolled his defender that let Ball through. Ufortunately he did the same in our defence which let to the free kick.

Their goal was a clever one which sounded like it took a deflection from the rushing defender passed an outstretched Rodac.

Not overly impressed but we're competing well enough for this standard

Nice update, thanks Frog.

We are having the lions share of possession, without creating any real clear cut chances. Come on lads we have more than enough to get a good result.

Highest league position team winning so is Donny in 11th. Win could close things up a bit

Morning Frog'n'all. I wrote a long comment just now but somehow lost it. Can't be arsed to write it all again and, anyway Frog's summary said pretty much the same thing: we need to football our way forward with players like Yates and Ball upfront or bring on Smith.

The I-Follow camera seems to be positioned very close to pitch level and close into the action. Some good intimate shots of the ball play but a bit claustrophobic and I prefer the broader view we normally get where you can see an attack building up.

Not feeling too confident and hope Warne can mix things up a bit...

[kevthemaltbymiller]

We have had only 4 shot on target, we need to turn all our possession into something more positive and work their keeper more.

See what you mean CT,

Some of our stuff isn't pretty close up.
