[OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR]

No one else has come in for Cox according to David Byrne

[BANGKOK RED]

Must admit that I have warmed to byrne after that interview just now on RS.

Also: Byrne "The bid for Cox has not been rejected"

Excellent. Explains why he was at the game today i would imagine. Let's hope we can seal a deal this week.

Good result considering the form they were in. I'm pleased for Byrne and Williams especially, as when they started I felt they got a lot of undeserved stick. Fair play to them, the players, the fans, and in particular Rob Tuck for today's efforts

Twas a good performance, a little unlucky not to get all three point , Comminges managed to show his full repartoire in 2 mins, a brilliant run then 2 mins later he failed to do the simple job of booting it out and we were one nil down.  The second goal was well worked by us and Blair had a good game today IMHO, as did Paynter who worked hard and was full of energy throughout.  Zaboub looked up for it too, no real poor performances today form anyone from how I saw the match.  The lad who score there goals was total rubbish, how he scored two is beyond me!

[flammableBen]

I guess we drew? I only woke up recently.

We were shit the first half defensively, going forward we looked ok, dont know how the cock hit the post after rounding the keeper, but was the other end. Their first goal was a kick in the teeth.
Second half much better, played the ball about well despite the pitch cutting up. Nick a goal after 3/4 corners, good finish from Nicho, and then push on and score a well worked goal which Easton took well seeing their centre half only just missed it. easton wouldn't have seen it til late too.
But all hard work undone by sloppy defending. You're most vulnerable to concede after you've scored and we shown that.
Would have been happy with a point before the match, so can't complain. If we'd stayed awake for the min after our second we'd easily have taken all 3.

I see Ifil was booked again, how far away from another suspension?

[mattboyslim]

Only his thrid or fourth of the season I think TBH that's not bad for a centreback, considering Aljofree and comminges have already served bans for 5 bookings.  I think Sturrock really sorted out Jerel's silly bookings this season.

[sonic youth]

ifil's disciplinary record has improved beyond recognition IMO

wish i'd gone, sounded like a cracking game - pics on the OS make the pitch look worse than the field behind my house though

[mattboyslim]

After the monsoon last night the pitch was very mediocre, Comminges smashed one cross into teh crowd off his shin and it took a huge bobble before he crossed it.  It was cutting up pretty bad, and it's good the rain only came an hour or so again, otherwise it would have been a right swamp.

Byrne said cox is in the reading squad again for there cup replay tuesday :|

[sonic youth]

didn't he say that cox might be in the squad for the replay as he was for the first tie?

[lebowski]

it's only spurs that they're playing, so he may well get a run out.
