Attendance: 3,011 (846 Town fans)
I honestly cannot believe this, from where we were it looked like around 40% of the crowd were Town - and much more noisy!
Anyway first game of the season (know its poor but thats what I get for living up here), nothing much to add to what has been said except...
Risser - I really cannot decide about him, I suspect that he breaks things up a lot and does disruptive work you don't see, but the game just seemed to pass him by at times - it was like a child was playing with adults in the ball seemed to go back and forth with him chasing it.
Rooney - I can understand why he was subbed, just wasn't happening. Holmes did more in his first 30 secs on pitch when he had a run at their right back.
De-Vita - not at races in first half, came much more into it in second. Really deserves some credit this season as he has played both right - has he played many/any games as a striker.
Benson - looks class and love the intelligence of his play, especially the delicate little lay off he did with head. Scored, celebrated with various super hero's, got booked and then spent much of last 10 minutes flat on his face - looks absolutely shattered at final whistle - thought they may have to carry him off!
I thought Murry looked better than Connel, but possibly just because he was quick and caused their back 4 some trouble!
Anyway not a bad day out and back to pub in lancaster afterwards!
