    We are as good as anyone in this league. Injuries to 2 key players and we've still been the better team. Missing an extra body in the box without Bayliss there but this game is there for the taking.

    Willis did brilliantly to get over and put pressure on the player who hit the bar there.

    Junior Brown playing like he isn't trying not to shit himself this week.

    Doyle just had a deliberate rake down the calf of the player who caught him late 5 mins ago :)

    Chris Cattlin. Would be much better to interview them at half time (rather than hearing how wasps are doing) where their previous experiences as CCFC players are relevant. Sitting there saying 'well played' 'good header' 'go on!' is meaningless.

    I got knocked back by the wife last night. And the night before. And the night before that too.

    Hangover. Could work if you really had to but better to rest it for a day.

    Think an early goal will be key to drawing them out of defensive mode so hope we start with the same intensity as last week's first half. Our pace off the flanks and Chaplin dropping between the lines should trouble their organised approach today. I do think we need to take our chances today...

    7 mins in was very revealing. Met his wife at 25 and since then he's stopped enjoying himself at weekends. :emoji_smiley:

    You were probably supposed to take the foil off.

    Agogo and Robbings

    Don't really mind Clive at all and certainly prefer him to half the ex players they have on. He makes a game sound exciting for radio and it's only when you see the iFollow along side it that you notice his mistakes. Don't mind Winch either, he has the most tactical insight despite coming over...

    They were a bit deep for me, need to be pushing the team up higher. Can't sit that deep with a 37 year old and eventually an unfit Kelly and Ogogo in the middle. No surprise we couldn't get the ball back when they had half the pitch to cover.

    Think we've just been a bit naive in this and the Bradford game. A bit of profligate finishing and we've ended up being dragged down to the oppositions chaotic level instead of sticking to our own successful game plan. Good news though that we held on and got decent mins into the subs legs...

    All muscle I bet. Looks like he's hit the gym hard when he wasn't able to balance it out with running.

    That Junior Brown clearance just upped him from a 4 to a 5.5!

    Ogogo and Jones look so slow. Both look like they're gonna need a lot of minutes til they're up to full speed.

    Don't think it matters what players we play if we're defending on the edge of the 18 yard box. Always going to be on the back foot that way. Need to be brave and get another 10 yards up the pitch.

    Just think he tried to hit it too hard and shanked it.

    Damn right. A striker, on your better foot, from 10 yards out and at least a third of the goal to aim at. Hard and low to the keeper's left there and he's not getting down to that quick enough. Be pissed off if wasn't scoring 7 out of 10 from there. Was just poor execution.
