Absolute cracker of a goal from Sadlier.

More or less the last touch of the game - cuts inside onto his left and curls it into the top far corner after a decent spell of controlled probing.

Mix of a game. I still think good teams can hold us off but if we score goals like that and make subs like that we might have a chance. And we still need to tighten up.

Am slightly baffled that we're still playing the 'Dapo - what position?' game.

Considering they're a league above I thought that was a very good performance. Good watch too. Good pressing, good passing, made a fair few chances, we'll look a lot better against League 1 opposition. Cracker from Sadlier.

Just hope JDB isn't injured.

Yep @Spartan2, agreed. Thought Iredale had a good game too. Must be at least 3rd time of saying it but we look decent...

Nice to see the Late Goals thing continue.

Only watched bits of the second half but I thought we looked good. Not clinical enough, but created chances, pressed effectively, broke their press very nicely a few times. Santos dominant and too good for their forwards.

Except, of course, for their goal. when he was caught rather flat-footed compared to Danny Ward.

But if he didn't have lapses, he wouldn't be at ours.

Yep, didn’t see that. He strikes me as someone who probably struggles to switch on for friendlies.

We played better second half for sure.

I still think whatever combination you perm of our midfield it’s not top two level. It stands out for me.

Bradley looks good but we are still going to miss Fossey and what he boroughs massively. Wing backs an area that we still need to recruit without doubt.

Sadlier always seems to nick a goal despite relatively limited game time. I wonder if his goals can help force his way into the starting lineup despite not having a natural position in the current system.

Sadlier is a wonderful talent. I hope we can find a place for him in our system to get the best of those talents.

So does Baks, bit apparently he's a bit shit. Without King Arthur, We're in the playoffs. It's a squad game.

Bod had a minor foot injury not expected to keep him out at Ipswich.

Sheehan and Isgrove both back in full training.
