It sounds as though we're growing into it. Those of you that are there - is that right?

I think that's entirely possible. Might need a tweak or two but I'd rather have our team than theirs. Wilkinson hasn't done too badly, he's won most of his headers but the fronttwo need support when we have the ball rather than pointless chasing when Scunny have it.
Reckon we'll be reet. And maybe Insano is right in that Oldham will beat a promotion candidate - well, they are doing so far.

Yeah, we had almost all the threat in the last 15-20 minutes or so. Needs tweaks, not tearing down. But I will be interested to see how Scunny deal with Long's pace.

They only had one shot to our six though it was a bit better than ours.Dave Sutton's barnet wrote: ↑Sat Apr 08, 2017 3:56 pmYeah, we had almost all the threat in the last 15-20 minutes or so. Needs tweaks, not tearing down. But I will be interested to see how Scunny deal with Long's pace.

Part Two. Curtain rises...we kick towards the travelling faithful. Can Wilkinson rise to the occasion? Mic man rackons it took Madine two years to come go so give the lad a chance. I agree. We go and......they clear the ball before Wilko gives one away. Zico speaks in Aramaic then we have a bit of deep end stuff before we clear. Ball goes to their keeper.
Wallop and.....they sally and look a bit dangerous. Shelvey replaced Crooks at halftime. Prats clears, Wilko wins a free kick just in their half. Crowd speak, and....Morais and.......straight to the keeper. They clear, they do well and make some noises at us then hit a post......phew....

They sally again and win a corner. They're flying at us already so we need to keep them quiet and get level. We clear, they come back. Wheats clears to Alf and we get a throw. They get the ball when we need it. Throw us....some scores (no change) then....Moxey handles. Free kick them on halfway. Back they come and back they go. Bit of footwork from them and we can't get the ball. Here they come and win a throw. Come on lads, you can do this. Throw them again and....should we be looking at options? Prats does well, Morais, Dervite and.....a thgrow us. Spearing and Beevers and....Wheats and....Dervite and....Beevers, Spearing....Wilko goes and lashes one way wide with Prats available.
