Confidence-Builder or Unnecessary Distraction? Mansfield (h), 13/08, 19:45

[Mar]

They have stepped it up, better side than us. Hope it’s just lack of match sharpness!

Cometh the hour cometh the subs. Collins Charles and Tomo.

Should have plenty of impact.

Decent focal point now from Adeboyejo. This is the front three we expected for the start of the season. Let's see how it plays out

[Mar]

Not sure Morley has touched the ball yet this half
Really disappointing

Edit - made a decent pass then got subbed, which given he’s fully fit and had a full pre season he has to be disappointed with.

Needs to be dictating play against Mansfield if he's going to be ousting Sheehan for that role. Sort of getting the impression he's happy to be playing second fiddle.


Tomo with the good and the bad off the free kick. Sounds a good effort.

[officer_dibble]

Well there’s some impact… cracking strike by tomo

[The_Gun]

Golazo de Thomason!

[officer_dibble]

Superb free kick routine- knock a shite one into the wall so you can win it back then smash a thunderbastard in from further out!

[DJBlu]

Don't know what's up with the couch, sadly It's off back to home bargains for a refund. Will have the better one out on Sunday.

[The_Gun]

I like Matete - think he gets into our starting XI soon enough.

[officer_dibble]

Evatt booked for suggesting that assault should have been a red card…

If he can manage 90 tonight he can’t be far off. He looks like what we’ve missed in there.

[The_Gun]

Weak as feck defending from Desmond.

[officer_dibble]

1-1 let their fella wander through the midfield, just as we looked solid!

[The_Gun]

Pass it there, Aaron.

[knobpolisher]

Is it ET then pens or just pens after 90 ?

[DJBlu]

Straight to pens.

[officer_dibble]

Pens
We look dead on our feet now so just as well

[DJBlu]

How the feck was Collins offside there? The ball was headed back by Mansfield?

These officials are a disgrace.

[officer_dibble]

Pens, shootout for Southwood on his debut.

We have not played well tonight, Mansfield deserved a draw at least.

Cant say I will be too bothered if we lose this…

Would they say the same for us?

Don't think many will be.

[The_Gun]

Thomason never a penalty taker.
