Well this was much tougher and most of the first half resembled two boxers sparring , both with little or no penetration against strong defences. The Extra Quality of Joachim shone a few times and the goal was sublime with the feint to shoot committing the goalkeeper leaving Jack with the one yard smash.
An intriguing second half was set up with Webb showing a pair of shaved Bollocks in taking off the again ineffective Francis.What is wrong with the guy?Is he waiting for the results of an Std Test?He looks drained?Or is he up all night watching the Olympics or maybe performing a different type of Olympics altogether? If he is love,give it a rest.
The sub Bridgewater should of put the game out of reach with the simplest,clearest free header you will see all season.A comment was made just after that we would pay for that missed sitter and of course true to our form we did.The dvd player that Camm and Howie have been sitting down to all evening on away trips must of been showing Japanese war films for they committed the best bit of 10 minutes Kamikaze Suicidal defending and goalkeeping I have seen in many a season, gifting a hardworking but never going to score in many hours opposition not one but two goals.Why put Camm into Left back when Weaver went off when we had Charlie on the bench?Camm is not a full back and this fact was more than exposed.Good to see Uncle Keithy Webb back to his Baffling Best in the space of 25 minutes.
I will admit I was so angry after the second Howler and our ability to forget how to play in the second half again that i left early and missed the Danny B piece of Poaching. Well done Danny.
How many times are we going to throw away the lead and game this season?
I would say every week unless we toughen up very quickly.At times yesterday it was like a middleweight fighting a heavyweight,with us by no means ever outclassed but lacking that extra strength and killer punch.
With 6 points dropped, we may as well of lost two games in real terms.
As said by someone else after the Burscough trip it's going to be a long season unless things change very soon.
