Other than that the Football League stats show we had 4 shots off target to their 11 and 3 corners to their 7 so on a different night it could easilly have went the other way. However the stats and highlights don't show the good work that we may have done to restrict them to what they got and it didn't show the episode with Crooks although the radio had him through on goal then turning back and heading in the opposite direction.
We are getting good at taking the points off the top teams but often undo it by dropping points against the bottom teams so perhaps we need to adjust our tacticts against them. We could also do with scoring a few goals to improve the goal difference as that could hold us back in any challenge for the playoffs. I'd hate to think what might happen if we lose Gornell to injury for any length of time.
Enough of the realism now. That was a great 3 points and well done all round. Now lets keep it going in the next match and beyond as we have seen that we can do it if we put our minds to it. All it takes is a decent keeper, solid defence and midfield and a proper striker up front  . |
We signed a proper striker yesterday.......Long live King Coley (I bet Dav likes this)
