A professional player plays 2 games in 3 days and it's Robins fault he's out for 6 weeks apparently. Weird.

It's a bit of a post Spurs game deja vu. Last time we did the obvious, picked the same team and we were poor, and Robins said he shouldn't have. (Mind you one more days rest). The important thing is the players must get into the habit of working hard as a team, with a good team press, tackling...

Kitching had a couple of bad ones and a couple of terrible ones. If they'd have scored it would have been a different game and he'd have been slaughtered. He's had a bit of luck and should get a few games now. Needs to cut that out and any loss of composure. Because it's been a recurrent...

It's down to Kitching to stop terrible lapses that can cost you games. Do that and he could well be a regular.

The best thing is that it was a real team performance. Hard work, pressing, tackling back and a hint of aggression throughout the team. Maybe we now lack a few high quality players. This is how you make up for it.

They've all earned the shirt against Wednesday. I'd give Kitching another game or two but he has to cut out the suicide passes.

He was awful first half with some terrible passes which could have cost us a couple of goals. Some late improvement. Thomas was actually fairly quiet.

Really good team performance. Good press, BTA and EMC worked really hard. Wright showed glimpses of his quality and tackled back. Midfield did well, Sheaf and Eccles both did a job on them and showed grit. Kitching the weakest link tonight. Onwards and upwards.

Kitching having a nightmare

I guess this is one for Bassette as a sub rather than Simms.

TBF Sheaf is a zombie and he's out there.

Back 4 need to calm down. We're playing at a much better tempo but they need to keep some basic composure. Robins needs to keep an eye on players getting knackered. And not sub too late.

Good stuff decisive stuff from Wilson.

Forwards need to get in front of defenders. To often just sit waiting for the ball to arrive.

We are working and pressing hard. Good stuff. Robins will need to use his subs better than usual here as they will tire.

I mean it's probably at least a naughty settee at this point.

I hope Bassette isn't already doing a stint on the Robins naughty chair....

Not sure of the impact BTA will make or him alongside Wright. Certainly a good chance to show what he can do.

Tonight will be largely about bravery. Some of the players look scared as hell. Scared to do anything other than pass back, scared to take anyone on or make themselves available for a pass. Let's see what they're made of.
