    One positive is Kai Andrews gave a confident performance. He is likely to be needed over the next month.

    Not sure he bottled it. Think he was trying to be clever by nicking it over the presser. Poor decision either way.

    Thought we were in control of the game. Referee inconsistency was disgraceful. We had looked pretty solid defensively until some sloppiness by Kelser-Hayden. Thought DaSilva was excellent. Both Mason-Clark and Rudoni needs to do more. Though the ref doesn't even allow Mason-Clark to use his...

    Bta out for 6 weeks

    Such a shame for him. Rightly had been given lots of plaudits this season. He has been a big part of our energy and press, irrespective of his goals. We are very thin on the ground and a lot of games to get through before we can reinforce. I thought Rudoni seemed to wince a couple of times...

    Simms has looked dominant in the air during the last 2 games. Where has this come from? I hope he keeps his place going forward. He has improved so much.

    We pretty much coasted that game. Some excellent performances. My only gripe is Woolfenden's performance. He is far too casual, slows the game down when he doesn't need to and takes needless extra touches which he just about got away with. Not really fair given his lack of game time but I...

    We are so fluid now. The ball just didn't drop our way in the first half hour. Thoroughly deserved to go ahead.

    Jamie Allen

    There are numerous examples of teams of superstars who do not make great teams. Some people slate certain players because they're not the complete player. Allen is a great example of a player that does an essential job in a successful team. He's had a fractured cheekbone, heart issues, etc. but...

    Grimes for England

    Rice and Anderson can both play the 6 role but equally an 8

    Grimes for England

    Not saying he should start ahead of Rice but worthy of squad inclusion.

    Fair play to DaSilva. He has had two full international matches and two club games in 2 weeks. His fitness is impressive. With both Bidwell and Brau on the bench, he could have been given a breather but has shown no signs of flagging.

    Grimes for England

    I honestly believe that Grimes would not look out of place in any premier league team for what he does. His movements to receive the ball and his use of the ball are exceptional. I realise that I have started taking his ability for granted. He seems so calm as a captain too. He has been a...

    I was going to say exactly the same. He looked like he was buzzing. Great to see. Couldn't help but smile with him.

    Unfortunately I can't see him being let go unless a massive fee is offered. There would be numerous clubs interested, including prem. I don't think we had a buy agreement. If he stays with us until the end of the season and we go up then who knows 🙏🏻

    I hope Rushworth isn't recalled in January. He is top quality.

    Some astute tactical and personnel changes in the second half. Rescued what was looking like heading to defeat.
