They're riding the wave of confidence from last season and hopefully we've broke them a little bit. They were an utter disgrace throwing themselves around. Bunch of pussys. Referee was utter bilge. They couldn't even beat us with 12 men.
Now on to us ... I didn't think it was the freeflowing football we're used to today. They were closing us down and giving us no time on the ball so we often had to rush things. It was a gritty performace with some fantastic periods of play thrown in.
Chambers, Sawyers, Kinsella and O'conner were outstanding. 9/10
Flanagan was pretty poor. Played one good ball to Kinsella and put in the odd tackle but other than that was lightweight. 5/10
The rest were a solid 7/10.
Was great to see so many turn up ... Lets see how many are there next week.
WE ARE TOP OF THE LEAGUE!!
Hope that's tongue in cheek as clearly you cannot mean that? Well organised and bossed a lot of the 2nd half (especially the first 20 minutes of it) without putting us under too much pressure.
Really good performance from us, regarding the penalty I thought it was a bit soft and we had a better shout 5 minutes earlier when Mantom's effort seemed to be blocked by an arm but nobody appealed.
McGavillarillaryilly looked extremely assured between the post's and I'd be happy to see him start next week, also Kinsella deserves to be on the bench at least (Baxendale can go look after the kids at half time).
Sawyers just get's better and better.
Henry just get's better and better.
Tough to say there's a 'weak link' when
we are top but Flanagan is that 'weak link'. Lets hope sicknote can get fit.
Cannot wait for next week :D
