Hylton gets MOTM after a 20 minutes cameo. That says a lot

It was a bit more than 20 minutes but it just says that we were shit for the first 55 minutes. |

So Town were shite until some fringe players who want to force their way into the first team came on?
Autos have gone, playoffs guaranteed; it was always likely that it could go that way. I just hope that it doesn't turn into an utter lack of momentum leading to a limp semi final exit.

Be interesting to see how much they try at Preston who will be a bag of nerves if we score first up there.
This is Swindon so we will probably win there and then lose the final two matches against the shit at the bottom as usual.

Anyone who thinks we're getting anything at Preston is deluded...

On recent form against sides of that calibre, we'll lose 3-0. |

Will we hear from PNEthor before Saturday? Dare he goad us? I envisage a little more heart surgery for the poor chap.

Yet another total fucking defensive shambles. Apart from the 3 goals they cut us open several times. Once the first goal went in our heads went down. I'd like to see the first penalty as it looked like a really shit decision from where I was but Gladwin took it well. We then got another soft penalty but it was penalty which gladwin took well again. then we go and fuck it up yet again and then we swing in a beauty of a cross and lo and behold, a goal. I can't remember a worse 3-3. It should have been exciting, it wasn't. Hylton was MOM for me. He came on and was really lively. Lots of poor performances tonight.
The worrying thing is we played 6 across the middle and the midfield didn't support the defence or the front line.
The only hope I can see in the play offs is to go gung ho and hope for the best as this defence just can't cope with any type of attack.

An honest opinion would be bright opening, followed by a period in which we lost our way and managed to show our suicidal defending not one, not twice but three times and saw an uncharacteristic fluff from Wes.
When you put 6 in midfield some of that midfield have to help out the defence. Much as I think Toffolo is a very good player, he did not have his best game tonight and abandoned his defensive duties. Add my MOM Byrne on the other wing and its easy to see how Walsall got too much space, and yet again we seemed to let them cross at will rather than close them down.
But by god the last 20 minutes were exciting. The substitutions were the catalyst to lifting the gloom, the withdrawl of the limited Rodgers and the pace and enthusiasm of Hylton brought us back into it. A dodgy pen, a definite pen and a set piece goal probably papers overs the cracks. But you know what, a lot of the game is played in the head and anything that lifts the fans and the team is OK by me.

It's a trend for sure. Go in front, unbeatable, go behind and were not that good a lot of the time. Lets hope we score first for 3 games. |

With such a leaky defence would it not be worth trying a back four of Ricketts, Turnbull, Stephens and Thompson in at least one of the last 3 games??
