Well done to all concerned for the win on Saturday. It was an emphatic second half performance and, if anything, the final score flattered them more than it flattered us. It is not the greatest pitch there anyway and with the all the bad weather of late it was not the game to try and pass it around. We had to play longer and earlier and I though tactically we got it right especially in the second half. If we can keep the door shut at one end we most certainly have the firepower to cause damage at the other end. There was some good interplay between the three forwards and Goldberg was unlucky not to get on the scoresheet himself. It is asking a lot of a three man midfield especially on a big and heavy pitch like it was on Saturday but getting the ball forward quickly is the way forward for us I think over the next month.

Defensively we looked pretty solid considering two of our regular back four were not playing and we have wide options on the bench should we need to adopt a different formation during a game. The gaffer is still perhaps our most consistent centre half and, although I realise it is hard work playing and managing, I hope he keeps himself in the mix as a player for the rest of the season. As I have said before I think it suits us a bit more playing away from home with the current personnel and/or formation but we need to find a way to make it work at PVR.

I do have one small gripe however! As Parky said in his interview their goal was a good delivery and a very good header but there was nobody within touching distance of the bloke when he headed it. There was another near post corner from the other side in the first half which very could easily have led to another goal. Lest we forget the injury time goal that Wealdstone score which was also a unchallenged near post header...with things so tight in the last few weeks of the season we can ill afford to give away cheap goals by repeating the same mistakes...

On to Bath on Friday and hopefully a decent crowd and more points to establish ourselves in the play off positions.

Up the Wings!
