Pollock and Scannell the stand outs of that half. Waterfalls usual solid heading has been a tad suspect so far.

Poor start, but we took control by the end of the half. Williams not really in it at the moment and same for Tilley. Rose has looked solid as has Hewitt. Macca his usual brilliant self.

Looking forward to the 2nd half.


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best

Seemed a slow start for us, the Wright experiment wasn't going well in defence and switching seems to have got us back in rhythm. Been a good run out for some of our new faces, if Scannell gets and stays fit then he can run games for us. Can see why Preston is so highly rated at Forrest, he can do it all. Rose looking a solid player so far, Williams got screwed over by the pitch a couple of times I think, we need to sort this out and soon by getting the groundsman back in.

To be honest, we’re playing better than I thought we would, consider the lack of pre season games and late signings. Good on the ball and our forward players all confident in possession.

Not great at the back first 20, particularly waterfall but they’ve steadied now. Pollock looks very assured and looks comfortable with the ball at his feet too.

I thought we looked fairly decent at times so far, see how our fitness levels are in the second half

we should all get airhorns to make some noise when we score


Agree, some early signs that 3 of the “senior” signings, Rose, Williams & Scannell are all good quality plus Preston gets well down the line and will improve as the season progresses. Getting the ball in the box far more and encouragingly getting men in there as well. Despite his goal Green not really a target man but he’s putting in the effort.

Given lack of friendly matches not disappointed by what I’ve seen and for once with Scannell, Wright and Tilley we have both some trickery and loads of pace.

Town have grew into the game after a sloppy early goal. Shows in the half time statistics with over 60% possession and 80% pass accuracy. Good finish by Green for our goal. Hopefully can take it into the second half

How big are your screens? I'm only on a 18", but the quality doesn't seem all that bad, definitely not HD though. Audio cutting out was annoying, but it's a hell of a lot better than watching teletext for 2 hours.

Saying we havent had football for a few months I am pretty shocked how bad the pitch looks in places or maybe it's just the poor picture quality.

I always thought Green had more in him then he's shown previously.  He does put a lot of effort in but it never really went for him.  Tondeur made it sound like he missed a sitter so I thought , oh no , here we go again.  Hope that goal is the turning point for the lad.
