Well my rather late two pence worth............
Thought over the 90 minutes a draw was probably a fair result, and nice to see us finally get off the mark. After how bad we where at Cheltenham last week (and apparently Shrewsbury on Tuesday) it was nice to see a small improvement. We could have nicked it at the end but that would have been massively unfair on Luton who I must admit I thought would have been better. Hopefully it gives the lads a little confidence going into Bury on Saturday, which make no mistake is going to be a MASSIVE test.
As for the team I thought young Lynch in goal had a superb game. Considering along with Simpson they had never played a first team game till this season they both have been superb whenever I have seen them both play. So well done to JB for un-earthing a couple of gems in the goalkeeping department. I do however feel quite sorry for Lynch as no doubt he will probably be released as the new lad from QPR has come in on loan. But at our level I guess we cant afford to pay for a number 3 keeper.
Winnard was rightly benched.... IMO he has looked miles off the pace so far this season. Great to see Atkinson get another chance. He was very unlucky to be on the bench most of last year. Hopefully he takes the chance with both hands as there is no doubt at this level he is a big asset and alongside Aldred that could be this years partnership.
I also thought Bowerman did pretty well, considering his lack of game time. He looked knackered after an hour or so and was rightly replaced but he brings out the best in Gray who simply cannot play on his own up top. Alabi has shown he isnt quite up to it at the moment so for me, we need to give Bowerman a run in the side to show us the quality he has.
Mingoia again ran his socks off and no doubt at the moment has cemented his place in the side for me.
Joyce and Hunt............ again for me, not the answer. Fair play to Luke on scoring a very brave goal but was he even fit??? For me no chance. Young Windass is getting himself into some good positions and on another day with his shooting boots on he could of had a couple of goals. If only we could get Linganzi back anyone............??
He is EXACTLY the type of player we need in the middle of the park.
