Very harsh on Gladwin. He played at least one brilliant pass to set up McKirdy. Also drew countless defenders towards him to free up others. Not really sure why you've said he's the worst in the team tonight.
Thought Grants passing was awful and well below his best.
Just the way that I saw it. Really liked Gladwin when he was with us before. Really hoping we see that player again. I think he is just off the pace at the moment.

I thought Gladwin looked a class above tonight ! He seemed to glide across the pitch, he was composed and seemed to have more time on the ball. This required the opposition to put an extra player on him, which in turn, created more space for the others. I know his fitness is lacking at the moment, but I'm really looking forward to him ripping up this league. We are currently lacking creativity, but if we could somehow get him, Williams and McKirdy in the same team, then we would create loads of chances for a striker, if we had one !

Bloke appeared behind me for the last 20 minutes to be an nice old fashioned 'get it forward' man. His main target was Gladwin. Or Gladwin you lanky fucking slow ponce.

I actually went for Wollacott v Carlisle and he was even better tonight.
However, Payne exerted real influence and really drove the team forward tonight in midfield and helped create momentum. A couple of near assists with deft through balls. A division lower but he looks a class above last season's version and probably has even more competition for his midfield spot.
A couple of direct free kicks dispappointed (oh for a Twine!) but Payne nicks my vote tonight for sheer endeavour.

Wollacott without a doubt.
A couple of Parsons’ turns and runs were top class. We’ve got something to look forward to with him!

I agree with that.

Payne for me. A touch more class than anyone else until Williams come on and that through ball to Mckirdy was the best moment of the match, sublime.

It felt like Payne might be really struggling under the previous regime, but has a new lease of life now, and is back to the player we expected when he arrived. Great that he stayed.

Hugely improved performance. Sigh of relief when they took off their striker. I can only see us improving and for me Reed is the glue holding it together, makes himself available always playing the simple pass but moving the ball well. A fully fit midfield of Reed gladwin Williams Payne and lyden will see us in the top 10 minimum.
Grant nearly cost us 2 or 3 goals and a blatant penalty, needs to concentrate more.

Parsons for me because I thought he looked at home at this level and made a few good things happen. I was sorry to see him go off. A combination of Glady long legs and Parsons over the course of the season will do us very well. Maybe Gladwin 70 mins and replaced by Parsons? Who knows, but he was a real surprise for me and held his own against one of the better teams we will face.

Payne for me, was the main creative spark and I lost count of how any chances he created or was on the end of. JoJo was pretty much faultless so definitely has a case
Can rule out Grant based on the blatant penalty that somehow wasn’t given
