This season deserves to finish below the line.
It also gives us a lower target for next season to hit.

Thought they might have a big crowd of 6k for their play off push...

Whilst it's a feather in the cap for the Academy who appear to be producing some excellent prospects, it's a black mark for recruitment.

I don't want to diminish the work of the Academy, clearly they have done a good job as the youth teams performance in the league and cup have proved.

However generally with the standard of our acadamy (tier 3?) they have a greater chance of playing the lower in the league the team is, because the gap between the kids and the first team is smaller.

Only six of them are academy kids as well, we've used 34 contracted pros (Minturn and Dworzak counting in the latter group as they're pros) - and McGregor is the only one to play more than 45 minutes total.

Mildly interesting considering how international the lower leagues used to be (before Brexit, I guess, although there are probably other factors) - Williams Kokolo is the only one of the 40 who isn't from the UK or Ireland (obviously Shade plays internationally for St. Kitts but is a UK national).

I almost want it to, which means wanting us not to win one of our last 2. Which is not right. Sorry.

With Hunt's debut yesterday, we've now used 40 different players in the league this season. 48 if you include cup competitions. Madness.

It'll be a good Sporcle quiz come season's end.

McGregor based upon the fact that it was his full debut and only 17.

McEachran played well. Got us to tick
Kokolo carried on run of decent performances
Hunt didn't look out of place.
FBT did well as did McCarthy
Glatzel had a mostly quiet game, but what a strike, which brought him to life. Could have had a hattrick

Sorry to single this post out.
But you’ve named 4/5 defenders here in yet another poor defensive performance.

Mcgregor.

How refreshing to see a lad absolutely bust a gut to get back. Played like his life depended on it.
