I thought Obika played well, good touch, good control, pace, got in behind, some good skill.
Two poor shots though, only thing that let him down was his finishing! which is a shame because thats what matters most.
To compare him to Pericard and Onibuje is laughable. Almost as laughable as RJack thinking we will stay up.

This would be the tactic of one up top when you're 1-0 down at home, desperately needing a win and having called for the crowd to get behind the team and roar them to victory. I may well be wrong but it looked to me that both Benyon and Dossevi were fucked before they actually played - Benyon with his hamstring and dossevi with his side.

I think that summed up his performance to me too. Half decent, yes. Likely to score enough goals to keep us up, no. Bit tough on him given I've only seen him play once!

Obika offers more threat up front than all of our other striker put together. Did show some bad touches as well as good and obviously missed a good chance in the second half, but he had to do most of the work by himself.

Benyon was definitely holding his hamstring from about 2 minutes in. Dossevi got injured on the pitch we all saw it. What with only 1 striker is was difficult to go two up top.

We looked better 4-5-1, up until the Carlisle box anyway.

I thought some of his off the ball running was a bit headless chicken at times, and he didn't seem to be aware of what other players were likely to do. I'm well aware though this may come with being in a new side, i'm confident he'll pull through

Dossevi has a bad side?Bit like DW then.

Or, he wasn't aware of what they were not going to do. The unmistakable sideways pass.

Its always been as dodgy as fuck down that way. Remember Adres Escobar, killed for scoring an OG that knocked Columbia out of the '94 (?) World Cup? His killer was freed last year: http://jockpost.com/guy-killed-andres-escobar/

I have spent some time in the city of huehuetenango and its proper shady. never really felt 100% safe there. it was one of the main centres of the civil war where literally thousands were killed and is very very poor.

I don't want to be thinking negative but, I can't see any way out of this hole we have got ourselves in to.
I am now resigned to Div 2 football next season (but I will still be going).
Any Great Escape is going to need serious input from the teams around us and I dont think that will happen.
If it does, fooking bonus mate.
