Pleased to see Boshell get a good round of applause as well.

Magnay's cameo appearance in front of the back four when Walker came on towards the end is something we could and should utilise more, especially when defending a lead.
Excellent Wapper! Not being at the game today I didn't realise that this had happened and was going to pose the question whether, with his abilities, people thought that Magnay would make a good defensive/holding midfield player? I guess PH does.

We will have to agree to differ. By far the least effective Town player on the pitch. Contrast his headless chicken style with Arnold's measured approach. He shouldn't take free kicks because he can't! Summed up for me when he bore down on goal with LJL and Arnold in better positions and fired in a weak effort...
Not sure if we disagree as such ? I certainly agree he could have done better on a few occasions. What "headless chicken" means I'm not sure - I don't think it hurts to have a player chasing and pressing defenders and he's doing it very well. From that perspective, I'm not sure he looked as ineffective as others who looked static first half. Like Mackreth, think his outfield contribution is under-rated and goals aside, thought he was no less effective than LJL was in outfield play, even from a "hold up" perspective. Hey ho it's all about opinions but didn't his flick on help make the 1st goal ?

Was it trialling a system in a competitive match?? Very well done to RH for doing this if so
On a negative note, once again very frustrated with the tune in app.
But, very well done again boys. Name in the hat for the 1st round again. So begs the question, do we want a money spinning game (maybe on TV I.e Coventry, Bristol City, Sheff utd etc) or do we want an easy winnable tie (East Thurrock, Bromley or scunts)

Don't know if Neilson was injured but I was questioning why he'd gone off at half-time rather than Mackreth, who'd offered nothing in the first half in my opinion, but fair play to PH as Mackreth did excellent for the first goal and was much improved 2nd half.
Let's hope Arnold can keep up this sort of form as he totally changed the game 2nd half when he came on.

Agreed. When he was on loan I can't remember him working that hard, but he'd pop up in the box to score. Since then it seems the harder he's worked the less end product there's been! As for the free kicks, I admire Thomas' persistence in offering to take them!

He's just scored contender for goal of the season ?!! Have to say just because LJL gets unfair treatment in certain quarters, I don't see the point in castigating Hannah (or any player) after 1 disappointing game. Similarly LJL's worth should now be abundantly clear and whose benefit to the team surely should not need to be continually justified or promoted. All this "LJL would have got stick for that" mammary for tat is unproductive sillyness IMO.

Goals in delayed pre-season friendlies don't count

In my opinion he hasn't been at the races since he scored against Huddersfield in January. He's a confidence player and when he gets a run in the team he scores goals. When he's in and out as he has been for a while, he's less effective. I thought he wasn't particularly good today, made lots of poor choices, poor finishing and awful free kicks. With JPP back fit his position will be in jeopardy again.
