Agree with the Kemp, Ward, Shade 1.2.3

Villain for both sides: The officials with a sympathy pen to make up for the clearer missed pen by UGM and the failure to blow for offside after 30 secs. 

Ward is some second choice keeper though.  He might not be a footballer but he does keep.

made a great block on the offside chance

and at the early pen

and a min. before with the block and gather of the deflection.

 

Kemp or shade or kinsella who I thought did a lot of the dirty work quite well

Ward saved the penalty and didn’t make any cock ups, but his distribution was dreadful. Dunno how he’s getting name checked in this thread

Players - defenders - are made to look terrible as they get absolutely zero cover from the midfield. Time and again last night in the 2nd half it was 3v3 at the back.

Wimbledon - outmuscled
Barrow - outmuscled

we have gone small and technical. well guess what? you need to bully teams sometimes. Quite the shock in division 4

Saw LSPod deleted their Brewitt tweet. Not sure it deserved as much flak as it got, take the pashun element away when watching Brewitt and strong heading aside (usually making up for poor positioning), it’s not an outstanding watch. Although as mentioned before, our defensive structure gives the backline no defensive cover so don’t want to be too unfair to him.

Nothing against him, he’s a very capable backup quality CB in this division and probably our best CB at the minute but for a promotion quality team you need better in my opinion. I’ve gone back and forth on him, wasn’t a fan last season, got a bit warmer to him this year but I think the reality is he’s the best of a bad bunch defensively.

One thing about him though, you can’t doubt his commitment, I like a player who’s not afraid to put his head in where it hurts or their body on the line.

Pretty much sums up my views on Brewitt. Passion shouldn't be used to ignore shortcomings - which he definitely has - but I wish some of the others had more of it.  It certainly helps get the fans up. Yesterday though, much like Rich from LS pod said, I wished he let Kemp has his moment with the DRS on his own. Also Brewitt was poor yesterday, much the same as Minturn and Dokes, who all made individual errors.

*apologies to the Brewitt fan club*

I've heard Brewitt criticised for many things,but celebrating a goal??? Come on.

I just think he was happy that we had won and wanted to share his emotions with the crowd.

Maybe Brewitt knows Kemp is staying and therefore knew it wasn’t “a moment”, and the only thing he was inadvertently gatecrashing was the wrist-slitters’ minds?

Yes, perhaps.

As Chairman-for-life of the Brewitt Fan Club it pains me to say he looked off it last night but even then he was better than Dokes and Minturn.

It’s the system!

I deleted a tweet criticising Brewitt last night because I didn't want today to be busy with notifications about how passionate Brewitt is with rhetoric of 'that's all that matters' etc.

Plenty of questions emerged from the game in relation to that poor defensive display but, we won, and that's all that mattered really.

...and it wasn't in criticism of celebrating a goal either. It was because Kemp was because Kemp was applauding the DRS, for perhaps the final time, and Brewitt took over. People loved it and I didn't. I am a curmudgeon and, in hindsight, it was an opinion I could have easily kept to myself.

I was in the DRS - All I saw was two team mates celebrating together - didn’t cross my mind that brewitt was spoiling Kemp’s ‘moment’

..and you're probably right.

Thankfully FGR were awful.

Possibly the worst side we have faced in many  long year, they were utterly dreadful relegation fodder.

Exact same thing they said about us!
