Who da thunk that Brophy would be a threat, let alone score.

Well I said we needed to win that one and we did. So fair play for turning it around, Town.

Still some things to worry about though. We need defenders. And the formation seems off. Work in progress.

I have absolutely no idea what to make of that.  It was as unstructured a game as you could hope to watch with both teams seemingly throwing eleven men on a pitch and asking them to play wherever they fancy I guess.  Weird, win, who cares really.

I will be glad to not have to listen to this pair of Cambridge commentators again, it's like Stadler and Waldorf

That joke he made about tonisilitis…

After the most stable summer we've had in years, I was genuinely hoping - and maybe expecting - a strong start and a bit of continuity.  Early days, I know.  And 3 points from 6 is not a disaster.  But it feels chaotic.

Pleased we got points on the board.  Just not sure how we managed it.

Got it done. I’m sure they will feel an awful lot better with that under their belt.

Only two games in, but haven’t clicked at all yet. Hot potato at times in possession, sloppy generally with it, even with time. Not things we saw so much in the latter half of last season. Did hunk the wide men looked a lot better today, I was worried after last week.

Don’t think it would take much improvement to be at the right end of the league, we know the standard down here by now!

Maybe it is the formation. I thought we had too many that looked like they were trying to work out their role, rather than knowing it. Lots of moments with players out of position, and passes behind the man, not in front etc.

Munroe:
- New it was going to be tough
- Third goal was the most important
- When it was 3-2, it was just about holding the lead
- Second half got physical. Very physical
- Happy with the 3 points. Need to focus on next game
- L2 adjustment?: Its not all nice. Wants to get forward and cross, but sometimes has to not go forward.
- Experience of playing in Spain: Thought it would be a lot of passing. But it was very different. Very physical and better standard than expected.
- Ambition for the season: Known for a lot of fans. Great manager. Good L2 team pushing for L1. Found Holloway one of a kind. Fell in love with him in the first phone call. That persuaded him to join.

 getting 3 points is always a good thing .  Not sure what we take from this  but let's see where we are after 10 games.

Wins breed confidence. Especially against a side effects that many predict to be up there. Onwards!
