Can see us going down to 9 men. Some needless fouls being given away.
Other than that we have defended well in our own box.

Can you tell me what law was broken? The game isn’t non contact. Not all contact is a foul. This really isn’t hard. There was no intention. Dasilva wasn’t reckless or dangerous. He’s entitled to his position on the pitch.

Right first things first

Irrespective of whether its a red , weve 2 of our best defenders missing and we got done over the top because our line was high as usual ..

We need to surely be more pragmatic ..and in my honest opinion da silva is done over the top every game atleast once it was always going to happen because he doesn't have the pace to recover

Strange really...we've looked poor going forward but somehow resolute and working hard by and large.

The longer we go without conceding, the more they'll get frustrated and the crowd will get agitated.

This HT team talk is where FL earns his dollar.

Kitching, grimes and sheaf doing exceptionally well. Halfway to a clean sheet. If we can get a point here will do the c squad confidence no end of good

Referee is an absolute joke.

We're defending really well, I don't think we can keep it up for another 45 minutes though.

We are getting ill-disciplined giving too make cheap freekicks away in dangerous positions.

The red was the right decision.

Did well to get in 0-0, I think we can nick this. I don't rate I'm at all but I'd put BTA on for Simms. Or maybe put Eccles on on the right and move Rudoni left with Wright up top.

Simms needs to come off now at half time. He isn't really too good at defending. Put Wright as the main focal point at the front, and put another midfielder in.

For the red card, did the lino on that side give it?

It's clearly their player kicking his own foot and going down.

Defended very well so far, can’t see us clinging on though unless we change something at half time. This is a tough game but need strong physical presence up front. Simms NEEDS to be getting on to things, if he can’t get it, make himself a nuisance you cannot let the ball come back at you 10/10 times.

The fact is if there was contact it does bring him down. He kick his own heels to go down

Simms is fucking pointless but we have literally no one else, entire bench is a downgrade. Just going to have to hope we can weather another 45 min of balls into the box it seems.

They are terrible. A better team would be 2-0 up. Just hoofing it to Morris each time. Only Walsh looks comfortable with the ball.

Probably a matter of time before they get first contact and on goal.

Nah they’ll be a dive and a penalty
Think I would think about Simms off for wright up fromt and Patterson or Bta wide left but think he’ll be as isolated as simms is
