Cheers PV. Obviously must be worth a bash.

Thought everyone played well today bar Lyden but no fault of his own, he just didn't actually need to be called upon too many times. When I say didn't play well, I kind of mean in such a team performance he was fairly vacant but that's largely due to other actually doing their job. That's testament to the team as a whole, only one game but if they gel this quick we could be in for a very good season indeed.

Another note, although Scunny were one of the favourites people must remember they are now on a 10 game winless streak, continuing from last season. Seems their fans forgot this stat too. Sometimes a rot can continue and we know there isn't masses of difference in quality between bottom half L1 & RoL2.

Watching this in a Thai bar in Chiang Mai, on holiday 😁
Never watched this iplayer thingy before, but really enjoying it ! From what I've seen between the distractions - we're looking really good ! 👍

FFS walked round Chiang mai all day with family doing markets had no idea I could be watching the match 🤯
Great result onwards and upwards.  Isgrove years ago was pure class so if we can keep him fit touch wood then he will be key to success.

I thought Lyden played quite well, he wasn't there to pass it long but broke up the play a few times and made 2 excellent saving tackles inside of our box, one stopped pretty much what would have been an unmarked open goal.

Oh yeah, and someone owed them a punishment for their shitty behaviour in their last league game (1:00 in).

Impressive stuff.... we know opening  day wins on the road, are rare, and usually show a decent season, however for us recently it's been the home form that's the problem, so we need to back that up before getting too carried away.

What'll happen if the trialist we signed turns out to be good?  Sad
Stop bullying Reg. Isgrove got the assist for the first, scored by the striker who isn't going to be any good

The ability to score from breaks like that is going to give the opposition some tactical headaches this season.
