[Outback Ozzy]

What can I say about that match? Well considering we started with 6 newcomers, it was nice to see the senior squad members going round and wishing each of them good luck. From a personal point of view, i don't think Dugdale is quite right yet, he seemed to lose his marker too often and was then chasing back. Mannix and McGivern both showed nice touches, as did Whalley and Jacobson. Thought there first goal was clearly offside as the nearest defender player was off the field and even Bav's was in front of the foremost Grimsby player, yet we try the same trick at the other end and get flagged offside. I agree with others on here, lets start with Richardson and Edwards at the back not leave them on the bench. Thought there was a lot of nice touches throughout the game and Grimsby, to be fair, were unlucky not to score more, only desperate defending kept them out!!!. But what was clear all thoughout the game was, we NEED URGENTLY new goalscorers, Toddy was his usual self, but Mangan was guilty of wasting a glorious chance to pass the ball when he got greedy from 20 yards and blasted high and wide, whereas if he had slid a ball through to Toddy, it was a certain goal and by gum, Toddy let him know it as well. Maybe with a couple more training sessions things will gel prior to the Shrewsbury game. CART ON Stanley - onwards and upwards.
