It seems to be a Stanley ritual that the newest defender in the squad is immediately put in at left back, regardless of his stronger foot. Today it was Baba’s turn and, being from Portugal, he suffered his own auto da fe. He looked like a lad who’d never played with the team, or had only had a few days training!
I hope he gets over today, but to blame him solely for a dreadful first half from Stanley would not be just. I didn’t even think it was that clearly a penalty.
But, what a fantastic fight back in the second half. Well done to all the squad, and to the fans for helping to pull it off.
