⚽ Match Thread vs. Newport County AFC 23.11.24 [EFL L2]

[Mud Pie]

Lots of space to exploit, especially centrally if we can win the ball before it hits the half way line.

our press has been good, helped by some horrible playing out from the back by Newport.

I hope we're playing better than than we sound on the radio

To be honest I think we are. Stall has been pretty scathing but we've been the better team and done all the attacking. We're not creating a massive amount but things are just dropping a yard away from where we need them.

Stall's description of our best chance was also a bit unfair. He said Jatta miscued the header and Brown slice the shot. Having seen the replay Jatta's header was a great lay off for Brown who was closed down as he was about to bury it.

Agreed. They?ll definitely give us more chances through mistakes. Encouraging to see Palmer pressing intelligently even though he?s generally the deeper lying CM.

Only watching on Sky, but I'd agree with this. It's one of those games that's either going to finish 3 - 0 to us, or 1 - 0 to them (in the 93rd minute!).

Brown wants too long to get the shot away.
Didzy spurned great chance first half and half a chance just now.
At least Tsaroulla has created a couple of chances this week.

We could be playing all weekend and we'll not score!

[BCnotts18]

As poor as we've been, Abbott has been excellent again.

[Jampie]

surely we can manage... one... goal...

[MapperleyMagpie]

We are all are style no substance! This will be 2 points lost and our lack of goals in the team is becoming a real problem.
