At those moments the crowd then struggles to lift the team.


Rothwell was bar far the best player on the pitch. Get to see the movement a lot more and I can understand why Farke picked Joseph for this game as he is quick at closing players down so we win back possession.

Aaronson covers more blades of grass but I like Tanaka who is calm under pressure seems to panic himself into the wrong option too often when closed down. He has the talent just needs to work on the cool head.

Back four looked very solid and Piroe was good when he came on his first touch is great and plays weighted passes.

Comfortable win in the end but should have been at least 2 at HT.

Highlight of the game was meeting Mel Sterlanf beforehand- top top fella.
Who would have thought Byram wobber combo would work out better than bogles my mind and firpo the clown. Ohh yeah the furor disagrees
