He played 4 or 5 sublime passes first halfI don't think Eccles was that bad.
Agree, much improved when compared to some of the performances in the season.I don't think Eccles was that bad.
I don't think Eccles was that bad.
First half was the best performance of the season - much quicker transition from defence to attack which previously had been very laboured. This was mainly, but not exclusively, down to Grimes. Rudoni continues to look so good and Simms scared them witless for the first hour
Three 'buts'
Eccles had a stinker and should have been replaced a lot earlier. We needed somebody to harry them harder - Allen is just the ticket for that role. My neighbour in block 19 met a Derby fan who described Frank as being great when things were going well but not very adaptable when they were not. Not replacing Eccles could be a possible example of this??
Poor service to EMC.
The central pair in the 4-3-3 were dangerously exposed quite frequently in the second half. Looked like their front man had his eyes on Kitching in particular
Anyone rating Eccles as a 5 in the ratings thread or saying he had a bad game today, should have a look at themselves as to why. We were very good first half, and he played his part. Has had a dip in form, but today he was good.

Both assistants were a bit dodgy todayMiles offside, but the lino is so far behind play that from his angle it would look like he is behind the ball
Why do always have to have a fall guy? Especially when we have produced one of the best performances of the season against a team who are well organised physical team. Every player provided moments where I was applauding like a performing seal.Anyone rating Eccles as a 5 in the ratings thread or saying he had a bad game today, should have a look at themselves as to why.

Thought he was the bollocks initially though when he tried to kick the leather off the ball and hit the bar from the first oneShout out to the “kick it for a ticket” attempt today. Good effort
Tbf that's what he's saying, wrong end of the stick I think.FFS Eccles did his job and had some great moments today.
This isn't a criticism of Grimes because he is a great player and what we need.
But seriously Eccles stole the highlights with his creative passing
Grimes is the missing link and the role that Sheaf couldn't cope with. Yes Sheaf is a great player and will be even better alongside Grimes
Was just reading the Australian cricket who scored a 120 not out today Josh Inglis is a Cov fan. He was born in the Uk and his dad was from Cov.Just been watching the highlights, the Preston goalscorer was 2 yards offside when he shot. It wasn't even close and the linesman was in line. Crazy desicion to allow it
I’ve had a chance to look at the replay now. I initially thought he might be ok. Hard to tell from the camera angle but I think just off. No way a body length or even close
Here’s the YouTube link for the highlights but on iFollow they showed replays of their goal and paused it when the pass was made. Keene was a full body length ahead of the defender.
The pass also went forwards without doubt.I’ve had a chance to look at the replay now. I initially thought he might be ok. Hard to tell from the camera angle but I think just off. No way a body length or even close
I’ve got a screenshot of their goal but can’t seem to post it up here. It’s absolutely miles off like a good 2-3 feet

Ref wasnt bad but he literally blew for everything which at times spoilt the game.Both l

I thought it was the crossbar challenge?Shout out to the “kick it for a ticket” attempt today. Good effort
WowRef wasnt bad but he literally blew for everything which at times spoilt the game.
The lino on the main stand side second half was atrocious and half a sleep. He missed at least four clear off sides including their goal
He even played the advantage a couple of times when the advantage would have been giving a free kick in a dangerous position.Wow
I thought he played advantage every time he had the chance and really let the game flow
Thought he was excellent
Big garden i hope plenty of room for tents.You could make a shilling or two here when you add in booking fees.Very happy to do that for everyone, as long as they accept it will be from Folkestone Central to London.
Somebody has gone to all that trouble knitting Frank a bespoke scarf and then spelt tactician wrong.Smashed the Preston hoodoo just like he did the Swansea curse
Switched to 443 even though experts told us 532 is only formation that works. (After telling us for years 532 doesnt work)
Dominant performance to shut up fans that say we play shit but effective football under
He missed the chance by missing the ball.Not sure how he missed that chance when he missed the ball in the 2 nd half
I’m not convinced from they angl.Well off
The guy on the wing was miles off, not sure about the lad that put it away. Could have been in line with the ballLooked offside twice to me. Not seen a replay yet but once when their player got it on the wing and then when it got played to the player that scored.
