I wasn't expecting too much from this game, with the whole squad running on fumes. Had a few decent chances towards the end. Quite a few positives to take out of this.
Hopefully the lads can recharge, and get some time to gel with the new players. Five more wins and we should be alright.
I would have given some updates during the match, but the Internet doesn't seem to have made it as far as Forest Green yet.
I think there were positives from that match. The first goal was a lovely passing move and there were occasions when we passed it well. However, we do need to up the tempo in the final third, like we did for our goal. And we need to stop giving the ball away so cheaply.
The new guys all did well and Rod Young looked lively when he came on, albeit his crossing was disappointing. A lot of our players did look really tired, and that probably didn't help with us gifting them the goals.
Penny missed an excellent chance of a consolation goal at the end, after following up a saved Gallagher shot, but the good thing is he gets in those positions.
I have to mention the referee - as awful as last time we had him. Jefford got booked for next to nothing, yet he gave no cards for a two footed challenge and a foul from behind by their players. The linos were terrible too - in the second half their keeper caught the ball and very clearly stepped outside the area. I don't know how the lino didn't see it as we all could from that stand behind him; I can only think he bottled making the decision.
