Santos/Baka hit the cross bar, lovely cross and header.


What is with this pitch? I know the weather hasn't been great lately but surely, given the quality of stadium and size of club that they are the pitch should be in better condition than this. Suspect that we've been spoilt by our home ground.

I thought it was Baka too - should've known better than listen to the commentators....But now I'm not sure! :-)

We've grown into this a bit the last 5-10....Not out of it yet. Need to get in no worse at HT.

Brews made, checking in. Not good it seems. Will Evatt think about subbing Morley to put extra bite in midfield?
Age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill!

And the key to a result is a good :kettle:

The only other option is Thomason so I hope not.

There's something for us in this if we can kick on. They've targeted our weaknesses better than we have theirs and a few look tired.

Big dangers for me are a pen or Morley going off.

If it's still 1-0 (or god forbid we equalise) by 70 mins we will get something from this game.

They have shown up so far, though, and we haven't. If we don't kick on they could win this 3-0.

Very much second best overall. We either need to suddenly get a lot better in the second half or hang on and hope we can keep it to 1-0 and nick something later on.

The movement of their front 3 is pulling us all over the place…everything Baka isn’t offering us I’m afraid. They look like a team twelve or whatever points ahead of us.

Morley is having a stinker but we need him on for his set pieces. Be tempted with Sadlier if he gets a final warning. Dapo for Baka.

Tough start. Their movement is superb and had a free run through our middle. We have weathered the storm and ended the half on top. They are doing a lot of running and will tire halfway through the second half. Our attacking players from the bench should be able to level up if not win it.

Yes he is, to be fair.

Don't know what's going on with the couch. Keeps tipping over. I'll keep on with what I'm doing but be prepared for a spring in your arse every 10 minutes.

Morley coming off is maybe protective of that yellow card situation and a bit more of a running threat with Dapo's skills. Gonna be interesting to see how telling that is in the match but hopefully Dapo's ability ends up giving us a better progression and more likely to win free kicks.

Whoever is handling the replays here, they don't half linger on the replay when actual game events are underway.
