Great first hour. luongo yet again showed his quality - a great goal but he ran the show. Hall also had a very good game alongside a very good ward. A quality goal from a quality passing move. The movement was really good. The first hour showed where the gameplan is an absolute joy to watch.
The lash half hour, however, showed where the gameplan doesn't work. The movement up front stopped and the midfield were lost. We pressed the self destruct button a few times particularly when Fods shanked his clearance which led to their guy missing the biggest sitter ever.
The good points - a good win and a couple of really good performances and the game we play is easy on the eye.
The bad points - we lost it in the last 30 - there was no experience in the midfield to try and get it together. Stevenage were really shit and better teams would punish us. Saying that we could have been more than 1 up by then. Story was disappointing after a really good game against Torquay. Tijane is going to need a few games as he has no end product at the moment - either crosses or shots but there is a player in there.
Now for Williams and I expect to be shot down in flames here but the guy is a fucking liability. He was unlucky not to score as their keeper made a really good save. He then shanked one over the bar. Now the one that really irritated the fuck out of me when it was there for him to challenge the keeper and he didn't bother. You then had another where he could easily have put himself in front of the keeper to challenge but went behind him. His whole body language is wrong - constantly moaning and feeling hard done by. Its a fucking contact sport. I'd love to mark him. He's carrying on this season as he finished the last. The fans have actually been pretty kind to him considering he has been giving way below 100%. If he needs confidence then he's not going to get it playing up front on his jack. He probably needs to go on loan somewhere lower league.
Overall though its work in progress and not a bad piece of work in progress.

How about Tom eaves of Bolton?
Good record in the lower leagues on loan. I recon it could be Theo Robinson who has been told he can leave Derby. |

Is that a Twitter Pic? any link by any chance?
It's someone's personal twitter so here's the image. I've no idea if it's him or not, or who the other guy next to him is. |

It looks more like Stephen Sodje in this pic, even wearing the same suit and shirt by the look of it. (with Otis Roberts on the left of the picture)  |

Wouldn't want Nile Ranger within a 100 miles of our club myself.
Attendances a bit down. A true reflection of lost support, or just a bit down because of the holiday season?
No idea but only a bit down as you say and perhaps the oppo last year was more attractive and also the season started a week or so later last year. 5.5 k for Torquay against 5.6k v Brighton in the FLC1 7.1 k v Stevenage against 7.6k for a newly Evans-less Creepy I also think PDC put some on the gate, home and away. Hopefully the kids will let their football get the turnstiles clicking but seems ok so far. |
