If we had turned up like that on Weds (and I know the reason why we didn't) we would have been 3 up at HT. Cobblers are so much better than Stevenage

Tempo much higher than usual. That does seem to be something Williams brings to the game, part of the reason I think he's been used as a second half sub so often.

Haven't read back.  Miles better than the other night. Three points up for grabs for both teams here. Quite liking the approach taken by the ref. The bar for minimal contact is set quite high so it's up to the players to adjust their cheating strategies accordingly. |

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
Crap!

Sammy Allison is as bad a ref now as he was when he used to ref me playing Sunday league 5 years ago.

Good & comfortable first 30 minutes then bang all the good work including a decent goal undone. Too much time for their player in the middle then Iandolo completely switched off and didn’t even try to close their man down, a full back on either side that can actually defend without consistently switching off would be useful, as KHH is exactly the same.
We do look much better with a proper second centre mid in there.

I am confused by him being back there. He is listed as a forward. Why would he be put in the defense??? |

Scrappy start to the first half. We then started to look more threatening. Thought it was a bit end to end punctuated by a couple of moments of class. One resulted in a ricochet to McKirdy who finished well.
After that, we looked to consolidate and were in no trouble until a big hoof forward from which they scored. After that, we looked nervous and likely to concede a second.
Williams looks full of energy.
McKirdy looks tricky but wasteful.
Simpson running everywhere.
Odimayo looked immense for 35 mins, then crumbled
Hunt carried on where he left off against Stevenage
KKH flatters to deceive
Wollacott one great recovery. Not as dominant from crosses as we e seen.
Reed and Lyden solid.
Payne with a good cross but not getting into the game much.
Iandolo okay apart from being caught out for their goal

He's not a forward - what he is though is hotly disputed |

But as a left sided centre back he did ok last season, he is not a left back though, he just isn't. |

Would this be a bad time to admit I prefer Bauhaus to XTC?
