Or it could be to do with EMC coming back from an injury and not being as sharp yet, it took him a while to get up to full speed initially. Simms needs to do more to warrant a place in the starting line up imo. He works hard, but doesn't use his physique enough, doesn't win enough in the air for his height and doesn't score often enough (6 in 38 league games this season). It's an area we need investment in whichever league we're in next season.Would just like to see him play more (simms). I do rate emc but he’s not looked ‘on it’ the last few games. To be fair probably to do with the recent opposition.
It was one of them games when you need an early goal to open them up , but they were defending well to stay in this league .Thought we were pretty boring.
Emc tried to do way too much every single time.
Paterson motm followed by Rudoni for the assist.
Special mention for wright for doing the worst bottle of the season for no reason.
We would have had that early goal if that blind ref had given the pen we should have had.It was one of them games when you need an early goal to open them up , but they were defending well to stay in this league .
I told you to watch the replay. Go do what you’re told.the ball was below his waist when the keeper punched it. not sure what you're on about to be honest
Tbf, that was because EMCs weight of pass was poor, a good pass doesn't give the defender a chance of getting it.
Let's be honest if we go to pens again I've already accepted our fate. If we somehow pull it off it will be a bonus, hopefully we'll go for the win.With Eccles and now Torp injured we are slowly losing our first choice penalty takers should that fate befall us again!
Another reason to try and get Simms scoring again in the run up, then hopefully we won't have to worry about pensLet's be honest if we go to pens again I've already accepted our fate. If we somehow pull it off it will be a bonus, hopefully we'll go for the win.
He touch the ball 4 times in 20 minutes. 2 of them were mis-controlsSimms had a great cameo. Properly got amongst their CBs. I’d start him and move Wright to the left.
Jay the peg (for older forum members obviously!)If he had three legs he’d be faster too

I've defended Sheaf on here all season, but the thought of him taking a penalty after that one at Wembley last season gives me nightmares and I'm not sure his career could come back from missing another, he looked devastated.Wright
Rudoni
Grimes
Sheaf
Paterson (to score the winning penalty!)
I reckon Thomas or Kitching could belt one in. Dasilva has good technique.
But yes, Eccles and Torp are both very good.
Wright touched it 11 times in 84 minutes TBFHe touch the ball 4 times in 20 minutes. 2 of them were mis-controls
disagree with norman being headless - if he hadnt have pulled the defender away pato wouldnt have been open...Collins - 7 maybe could've done better when they hit the bar but otherwise steady and distributes well
DaSilva - 7 surely our number one left back now , looks more confident
Thomas - 6 very erratic tonight but still a threat from set pieces
Kitching - 8 love his aggression but also some of his passing was sublime
MvE - 7 so frustrating at times but another solid game against a tricky opponent
Grimes - 6 slowed it down too much tonight
Torp - 6 looked a nasty injury
Rudoni - 9 our best player and biggest threat
EMC - 7 hot and cold performance
Sakamoto - 7 see above
Wright - 6 he isnt a centre forward
Subs
Sheaf - 6 just doesn't look interested or not match sharp
Simms - 7 showed well and challenged for everything
Norm - 5 just headless
Pato - 9 boooooooom
Was he related to Jake the Peg?Jay the peg (for older forum members obviously!)

Twins maybe?
Oh that's okay. Never was a big fan of Bucks Fuzz anywayI think you've misheard. It was 'Jay got pegged'.
Couldn't make my mind up about them, but the camera never lies.Oh that's okay. Never was a big fan of Bucks Fuzz anyway

His penalty against Luton at Wembley was a cracker
I would say that’s a fair assessment. Still think there’s a player there, proved it last season it’s the consistency I suppose. I would agree that that is an area that needs a bit of focus. Whatever league we are in I would expect some movementOr it could be to do with EMC coming back from an injury and not being as sharp yet, it took him a while to get up to full speed initially.
