Possibly not but you can see how an experienced goal scorer can win games even if fitness doesn’t allow them to play a full game very often.

True but Charlie was never one for scoring those types of goals at all.

He was mostly a fox in the box & we’ve seen first hand the last couple of seasons that sharpness & finishing ability had sadly dwindled.

Fair points, he could have been an asset with his heading ability but we don’t like getting crosses into the box so that nullifies that idea.

Ambled out indifferent..

We play poorly get beat.

Play indifferent get a couple of draws and a loss in the Cup.

Play well, get beat again.

I hope we kick on soon and get the Monkey off our back. A bit heartbreaking Saturday.

We need to score goals, simple as.

TBF we had 16 shots and their keeper was forced into making 5 saves (plus conceding 1).

It was much better than it has been recently, and on almost any other day we would have won that game barring their keeper making a couple of very good saves and 2 near wonder strikes from an aging striker.

Yes I know its what ifs, but I thought we did overall much better and made County look an average team, we pressed them hard and forced them into making several mistakes at the back too.

It was not anywhere near as bad as many are making it out to be. Just my opinion though.

Better a sea change and a defeat than more of the same but a lucky win.

As the LSPod says, to paraphrase -  just need to follow up the performance with similar performances and we'll be OK.

We have to hope that the performance was a turning point & not a one off.

As PV said we had chances which in itself is generally an improvement on what had gone before.

I watched the game back and my main worry from it was we didn't actually create that much still in way of clear cut chances for our strikers.

Performance wise it was light years ahead of what we have had this season which is great so hopefully the chances come
