Could not bring myself to make the (4 changes) journey today, respect to all those that did.

Lately when Loick has come on we have looked sharper & more dangerous to me, was that the case today?

 

one change for me cabby there and back dorch west 541 to castle cary 653 to paddington got in 830 on way back. The ones using dorch south are like a scooby doo mystery tour.

Mitch saved us at the end , have to remember that, he did have a poor first half though. If he hadnt got his hand to the one at the end we would have been beaten.

They seemed fine to me at final whistle. Plus they tried their balls off second half, team spirit looks tight to me, despite their 5 and 6 trying to stick more than Obersteller on a stretcher.

6 was menacing , his challenge on Loick was worth 2 reds but he marked his intension earlier, previously he had bent over Loick when he fouled Loick and left him on the deck (no free kick given if i remember right) and snarled at him from above and gave him some mouth, which was quite hard seeing as he was standing and Loick was sitting on teh ground... He did the job properly with the sending off challenge, a stupid challenge as the whistle had already gone.. nasty late lunge that could have broke Loick's legs . I cant be sure but i think i saw a nescafe signal too , see if you agree tomorrow night when highlights are posted.

5 went through Pughie early on and got a lecture and no card then he started on Joe Healy and drew the shove which allowed 5 to leap acrobatically to the floor like a wounded soldier in platoon, he also went in in the locust foot up position on Clarkey.

5 and 6 fouled Pughie all afternoon, think Pughie got one free kick out of it.

3-2 down and down to ten men we needed a lot of character to get anything, you wouldnt have known we had 10 men for over half the game, Tremendous result, not a good one and one we all would have took when losing and a man down.

Now lets bash up Braintree and not let them play the ref, might be an idea to tell the ref to look out for it.

Sounds like the squad got their heads down and really earned the point under tough conditions - well done lads!

Hopefully the injury list is not going to have a long-term effect on things......
