Surprised by the low scoring for Bidwell. I thought he was very good. Won every header I think, passed the ball accurately including between the lines, and made some timely interventions. Considering it isn't his natural position he was impressive.

Allen did what he needed to - pressed hard and kept the ball moving. That was his job and he did it okay. We didn't do enough with the possession further forward in the first half but that was down to the four ahead of him.

I think he should have saved it. He was slow getting down to it. It wasn't out of his reach. However wasn't helped by poor defending.

Andrews isn't far off imo I don't think Andrews is far off. When Burroughs and Howley first entered the first team they were clearly a lower level. Andrews has a good touch and given more opportunities will improve. KKH clearly has attributes but was very rusty. His passing was particularly...

I don't mind Wilson as a back up but had little to do tonight and that wasn't great. Rushworth has looked dubious from crosses but he is young and improving and is much better than the alternative.

He took two free kicks and put them into good areas.

Really should have won that. Defensive frailties again. Kitching was awful. Bidwell our best defender and DaSilva did well when he came on. Kelser-Hayden had a poor game. Thomas-Asante had a mare too.

Why was Torp marking Grant. Need to sort out defending set pieces. Shocking.

Nothing in it but soft goal. Andrews needed to be stronger and Kelser-Hayden sharper. Good to know Brau has a decent long throw. Raphael has shown he is useful from dead balls.

I was thinking the same. If he continues this form he surely must be in contention for an international call up.

I like that. Current footballers acknowledging club history in that way. There is also the Danish link for Torp.

He was very effective today and he seems to be a good vibes character. This is an attribute that often goes unnoticed but is important for the spirit of the team. He will get confidence from his contributions so far and will continue to be of value. His movement into central spaces made it...

Wow. Don't want to single out a player as everyone has been excellent. However, Thomas-Asante gets so much criticism, he wades in with a goal and two assists.

How did they keep this under wraps?! So out of the blue makes it even more special. My brain had to catch up with my eyes!

Watched Howley for Bristol Rovers. Subbed after 62 minutes. Looked languid. Hopefully, once he settles and if he can continue to get starts he will improve.

Does anyone know if the fan who collapsed is okay now?

Grimes injury a big worry. Looked in a lot of discomfort at full-time. I didn't see how it was caused. Thought Mason-Clark was a right handful today and took his goal really well, as did Torp.
