Where was illing junior? I know it?s the first game but this is horrendous

[SwedishBaggie]

Don?t we need more forwards on the pitch!?

Having kept them out of our third of the pitch for most of this second half so far and pushing for an equaliser ourselves we then concede a second. Good strike from Silvera but we didn't get enough back to defend.0-2. Subs imminent. Wallace and Maja on for Bielik and Heggabo.

I know it's the new managers first game and we are players missing but this is absolute ****e, making Boro look like Barcelona, I think a spell in League 1 is beckoning

[SwedishBaggie]

Stonewall penalty!!!

Don?t we need more forwards on the pitch!?

At 0-2 down you would have thought so! Would have preferred to take Price off, bring Maja on to play behind Heggabo and move Johnstone back onto the wing where he looks more comfortable and maybe try Bostock on for Illing Junior.

That should have been a penalty on Grant just!

[phild]

well i never 1-2

[SwedishBaggie]

But, well done Price, game on!

[Bombers right foot]

Get at em!!
