Feels like one of our better games early season under Lindsey here - clearly the better footballing side, by far the majority of the possession (65%) but haven't actually had a shot on target (details, schmetails) whilst the opposition have had one or two dangerous moments that we've got away with mostly thanks to Brynn. It's a big improvement on recent weeks, we actually look to be playing with a structure and plan of sorts, but still have the familiar weaknesses at either end of the pitch. Williams prominent in a way that he hasn't been much since the WC as well.
Again I agree with all that.

Far too collegiate on here today, someone must have a rogue opinion. Where's DV when you need him?

Pre season friendly atmosphere around the ground. In noise and numbers.

2 poor teams playing out the season, seem in control but we’re bound to gift them a goal at some point.

I know its early but Brewitt looks a half decent footballer today so far.

Expectations are low most seem to be happy today. Barrow are poor too, I somewhat overestimated them earlier.

It’s a really dull game, but actually an improvement on recent weeks which just emphasises how crap it has been

Lots of possession, but still no quality in the final third. Not too much effort from Barnett either.

Thought Brewitt has played well in the first half. Clayton has been quietly efficient too.

Williams has seemed busy.

The ball has been bouncing off McEachran a lot too!

Concourse is dead at half time as well.  Can’t remember the last time the CG was this quiet.

Just shows how hard the club have stuck it in reverse this season - reletively happy with effort being shown, even though based on that 1st half performance, the best you would probably expect based on chances on goal is a draw.

No matter what improvements we see for the rest of the season, papering over the cracks of this shit show of a season is just not possible - and this is why we need to hear from the club on what the fuck they are going to do about it, if anything.  Giving one of your youth prospects his first pro contract won't cut it, and if they think it will, we have bigger problems than we thought.

it's not terrible by recent standards. willo should have scored. we are the better team mostly

that said they've tested Brynn more than we have their keeper. luckily all the shots have been straight at him and tame
