A nice start to 2025 with one of the rarest beasts, an away win. Did SE have a cunning plan or did he simply put the names in a cocktail shaker last night and see what came out? Once the bemusement over the starting XI and formation died down it was nice to see a bit of positivity on the match thread for once.
Thoughts?
Played well.
Much more mobility up front without JCH and Green. Phillips - couple of wonderful saves. Humphreys in midfield - my MOM - composure personified but he did get Rafferty booked!
Lincoln were dreadful and the only time they looked dangerous was when we gifted them possession or fouls.
Only downside - Holmes should have been on the right from 60 minutes - local lad who would have bust a gut to make an impression.
Great start to 2025.
Watching was still a bit squeaky bum though,
Didn't take long to win as many away league games as last year did it. 😂
Good performance and the majority of the credit to SE for making some brave decisions. Humphries and Powell did well but also a worth mentioning the centre half pairing who are becoming quite a pair. Phillips also did well - hes a decent enough keeper given the chance.
Foot note - special mention to those Duke's Bar regulars who advised SE on the formation and personnel changes. I won't name them here to protect their modesty other than to say, if only he had listened to you sooner!
Most I've enjoyed a Millers game in ages. Humphreys MoTM for me. Lets hope we can keep hold of him.
